"Fun kit with some slight drawbacks"
rockykeele (Tucson, AZ)
The German Leopard Medium Tank is an impressive kit representing a post WWII German tank. The kit has nice detail, including a molded rough surface on the hull. The kit includes all the accessories that Tamiya generously gives, including shovels, picks, saw, cables, etc. I was slightly dissapointed in the one figure(just the upper torso) that comes with this tank, as it seems slightly too small for the 1/35 scale. It includes a metal screen for the engine compartment that really looked nice on the completed model. The treads are the usual one piece rubber type, with good detail on both sides. I did not care for the rubber wheel plugs that attach the wheels to the suspension, however, as they leave unsightly gaps in the wheel assemblies. As with many Tamiya kits, this one does not offer the builder much to do with regards to the lower hull and suspension - it is all pre-molded as one piece. Even with these slight drawbacks, the kit turned out looking very nice, and it was a fun build.

"Nice build, even if somewhat dated"
travis.getz
I built this model years ago with my cousin. He was new to the hobby and we both really enjoyed it. The model is simple enough for young modellers to avoid being bored, but more 'hardcore' hobbyists may find some of the lack of options and the rubber tracks a bit disappointing. Recommended for beginning to intermediate modellers who want to add to their tank collections. :)

 
"Old Kit"
alex295
The kits old and shows it. Detail is simplified but works. The turret is not good. It actually is shaped more like a M48 Patton turret All that said, it was perfect for what I bought it for. I built mine as the Panther from the movie A Bridge Too Far. It's an easy build. It's old and detail is to be expected. If you want a good Leo 1, there are much better kits. For the price, you can afford to kitbash it. The turret is the weakness of the kit.

 
"Great kit for the price and age."
Panzerkitten123
This kit is really quite amazing in my opinion, it's all in what you make of it when building and detailing. Very simple, straight forward instructions and assembly, especially considering the age of the molding it's stunning how it all just flies together into a very presentable vehicle. I do know of quite a few little mistakes with this one, things like the exhaust vents etc. only a rivet counter will really care at all. That is however my reason for 4/5 stars, Tamiya could easily update this mold to make a good kit into a great kit again! That said, if you're looking for a nice Leo to pass the time on the cheap you can't do much better than this kit around 20$ USD.
