1/35 Italeri 0312 Kubelwagen - WWII Lightweight Utility Vehicle

This Italeri 0312 1/35 Kubelwagen model recreates a practical wartime vehicle used in Europe and North Africa. Built with a simple rear-wheel drive and a 24 horsepower engine in its original form, the Kubelwagen proved useful to units such as Rommel's Afrika Korps because of its reliability and off-road capability.

Assembly Notes for Modellers

Parts are moulded to capture the Kubelwagen's distinctive flat panels and utilitarian details. The kit rewards careful fitting and painting, offering a chance to practise seam removal, panel lining and realistic weathering for a museum-quality finish.

Why This Kit Works for Collections

When completed, the model offers a compact but historically accurate piece for any WWII fleet display. It complements larger diorama scenes and provides a clear example of mid-century military design.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/35
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Paint: Not included
The kit aims for a faithful external shape and recognizable details. It is suitable for historical displays, though advanced modellers may add aftermarket parts for extra interior or mechanical detail.
Standard polystyrene model cement works well for most joins. For fine parts, a cyanoacrylate (super glue) can be useful, especially when positioning small components.
The kit focuses on external accuracy. Basic internal shapes may be present, but dedicated interior detail is limited unless you choose to add aftermarket upgrades.
