German 88mm Gun Flak 36/37

I first purchased this kit in 1973 for 10.00.It was my first Tamiya kit and got me hooked on Tamiya models.The detail is superb as well as the many moving features.I almost expected it to fire.The model is well made and assembly is easy(as is the case with the majority of Tamiya models.The kit contains parts for building either version of the gun and decals to match.I am not planning on building this model immediately.This review is based on past experiences with this kit.In short this is a must own kit for any collector.

This is a wonderful model. It is not for a beginner. I am 68 and this was my return to modeling after 40 years. I should have waited. I first cut off a glue peg, filled glue holes and broke small parts. I can almost breathe as I paint this weapon and I have most of my fingers left. It is complicated and has several parts that move after assembly. Read the instructions, inspect the sealed plastic sprues. There are two small brass nuts and two small screws. I managed to assemble without these, not a good idea. In ending, I recommend this product. It is challenging and rewarding. Even though my attempt is not good, I am happy. I learned and improved my skills and have assembled tools. Thank you Hobbylinc I definitely recommend this for an experienced modeler

First built this in my school days and have now built two in my late sixties. One is painted for western front and the one reviewed and with pix is north africa. You can't beat this for the price. As mentioned by others nine figures, motorcycle and extra parts. One of Tamiyas better molds. Had no problems with either kit, everything fit where it was supposed to. Will probably order more in the future as I seem to be collecting enough models to build my own army. Would recommend this to anyone looking for a detailed field piece.
