Overview of the Tamiya 35052 1/35 Horch 4x4 Type 1a

The Tamiya 35052 1/35 kit models the Horch 4x4 Type 1a, a versatile German military vehicle from the WWII era. The kit reflects the original's practical profile and gives modellers accurate parts to recreate a clean, period-correct vehicle.

Development and wartime role

As armies moved toward standard vehicle families in the 1930s, the Horch 4x4 Type 1a emerged to cover transport and command duties. Its all-wheel-drive layout and strong frame made it suited to varied tasks, traits that this scale reproduction aims to portray.

What builders can expect

Tamiya supplies well-engineered sprues and a stepwise instruction booklet. The build rewards patience and neat assembly techniques, with the final model lending itself to detailed painting and subtle weathering to match field service appearance.

Specifications

Yes, the 1/35 scale is compatible with standard figure sets and base accessories. Positioning figures and a simple ground texture will add context and scale to the build.
The kit focuses on exterior detail with basic interior features. Clear parts or extra interior detailing can be added from aftermarket sources if a fully detailed cabin is required.
Apply thin coats of paint, use pin washes to bring out panel lines and add light chipping with a sponge or brush. Layered weathering increases realism without hiding fine moulded detail.
