The Tamiya 12688 Metal Gun Barrel is an aftermarket accessory created to raise the detail level of the 1/35 German Hummel kit, specifically the late production version (Item 35367). Cast as a single machined aluminium piece, it removes the joint lines that come with split plastic barrels and gives a cleaner result.
Measuring 111mm overall, the barrel shows fine rifling at the tip to improve scale realism. Its fitment is matched to the German Heavy Self-Propelled Howitzer Hummel, letting builders retain historical accuracy without sacrificing surface finish.
The single-piece metal barrel cuts down on assembly fiddliness and lifts the visual impact of the completed model. Enthusiasts focused on authentic presentation will appreciate the solid, seamless look it provides.
