Trumpeter 01561 1/35 KV-1M1939 Model Summary

The Trumpeter 01561 1/35 Scale KV-1M1939 Model Kit is a faithful scale project for hobbyists who want an accurate early-war Soviet heavy tank. It captures the boxy, heavy-armour look that defined the KV-1 series and provides parts suited to a detailed finish.

Background and Model Specifics

The KV-1 was named after Kliment Voroshilov and marked a shift in Soviet armoured capability in 1939. This release represents the initial configuration armed with the L-11 76.2 mm gun, the platform that later saw the F-32 upgrade on some vehicles. The 1:35 scale gives enough room for crisp detail while remaining practical to build and paint.

Construction Details and Presentation

This kit contains 249 plastic components and includes one photo-etched element to refine small-scale surfaces. Builders can expect a project that rewards precise assembly and paintwork, producing a display-quality tank once complete.

Yes, its 1:35 scale and authentic silhouette make it a solid choice for single-vehicle displays or battlefield scenes with figures and terrain.
Many builders add upgrade parts like metal barrels or more photo-etch; check compatibility notes from upgrade makers and be ready to trim mounting points.
The kit represents the early L-11 installation; modelers wanting F-32 detail should consult references or aftermarket barrels for a closer match.
