"Great kit"
jeremy.s.michels1
This is a great little kit. The details are nice and crisp, there is very little clean up on the parts, and they go together really well. The instructions are easy to follow. I would recommend this to the beginner to the experienced modeler.

"Not the best Tamiya has done but close"
papagabriel (Naples, FL)
One of the reviews I came across praised the fit of this model. I got the one that was close but no cigar. Had quite a bit of flash to fix and had a problem getting the top of tank onto the lower body. Appeared to be slightly warped on one side of the top front, had to struggle to get it in and didn't fit flush. Other than that (and what model doesn't have problems like that) it was an easy build. Would still recommend this for any age modeler.

 
"Typical Tamiya goodness - An interesting tank kit"
rockykeele (Tucson, AZ)
Tamiya's Type 97 tank kit was another excellent kit from Tamiya. It includes all the nice features that you come to expect from Tamiya, such as great detail and excellent fit, ease of construction, tools and of course figures (A full commander and half driver). This kit also includes the older style vinyl tank treads. You have to melt four pins to connect each track, but it was fairly easy. I'd rather have the type you can glue with regular plastic cement, or even the link and length type, but these weren't too bad as far as the old style goes. You can choose from six or seven different markings and paint schemes. Decals are few, but they went down just fine. You can choose to have the commander and driver hatches open or closed, and there is a single piece for the commander's hatch if you choose to leave it closed. Overall, an interesting subject and a very fun kit to build.

 
"Nice little tank!"
John (Newfoundland, Canada)
Wanted to start collecting tanks and men to start my pacific themed dioramas, this was a perfect start! Everything went together just fine, no flash, clear instructions, plus lots of n9ce details including the anti aircraft gun option! Figures are pretty detailed as well. Tracks are one piece rubber but fairly detailed considering that fact, plus less hassle for me haha I recommend this kit for both beginners and more experienced builders.

Comments

  • Keep small pieces and sharp edges away from children ages 3 and under.
  • Care should be taken when using tools and modeling knives.
