The Tamiya 1/35 Russian Commanders and Staff Car set depicts a German Kubelwagen taken into Soviet service, suited for realistic military dioramas. Four commander figures are included, each sculpted to convey period posture and kit, expanding display possibilities.
In the early stages of the eastern campaign, Soviet forces captured and reused enemy vehicles when practical. Vehicles like the Kubelwagen were sometimes re-registered and repurposed as staff cars in later operations, a detail this model captures well.
This 1/35 scale assembly builds to about 110mm in length for the Kubelwagen. The figures come in poses reflecting command duties and wear either the rubashka or the 5-button jacket. Figure production was handled by ICM in Ukraine, and the kit includes decals for authentic vehicle markings and insignia.
