Tamiya - 1:16 World War II German Elite Infantry

For not painting models for over 35 years, this one was challenging with respect to putting on the decals it provided, it's a shame it doesn't come with better instructions for the new comer, the pieces are very detailed and it comes together as easy as they come, I recommend that you paint your model while its still attached to the plastic frame it comes with, it makes for an easier paint job. Once you put it together, you will be amazed how realistic it looks, I just wished Tamiya would provide English set of instructions for the paint colors and what you should do first. Altogher, it's a good model to build. I have to say, the color patern is a bit challenging to copy but looking at the box and the color patern illustrated on the side, give your imagination enough to go on to free style your own style, and still keeping it within the time frame of the era.

Lo esperado

The model is an excellent rendering of a Waffen SS soldier with appropriate camo which was not issued to regular infantry. He has an MP-40 SMG which I swapped out for the MP-44 assault rifle. Good detail all around and an excellent build except the foot attachment positioning. This is a weak point in this otherwise fine kit.

Arrived very fast and at a great price!

Went together perfectly! A lot of detail and fun!

it came in a timely manner and was just what we expected.

Llego en menos tiempo del esperado, lo cual es muy bueno. Sin embargo la caja del producto llegó un poco dañanda.

I was very disappointed in this order. It was MUCH smaller than expected and looked nothing like the photo in the description. I most definitely doNOT recommend this product!!! After seeing the actual product when it I arrived I can say that is was GREATLY overpriced!!!

Easy build,very detailed ,love the 1/16 scale making it easier to paint! Have 3 more on the way 👍

作りやすいが、後方に銃床を伸ばした機関銃など、テクニックを必要とする面もある。 初心者から中級者まで十分楽しめるキット

Ein schöner Bausatz der Fa. Tamiya German WW2 Soldat 1:16 Das bauen hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht =)

Es el primero que hago de este tamaño y me ha gustado bastante. Montaje fácil, bastantes detalles y buen acabado. Habría estado bien que trajese algunas calcas para insignias o galones, le hice la red del casco y con una base simple queda muy resultón. Creo que haré más.

This has been around a good few years now but its still a great 1/16 figure with good detail and a purposeful pose. This is actually the first time I've done a 1/16 figure and I'm pleased with he results. Also bought a couple of packs of scale bricks to make the diorama and the domed glass dimply case also came from Amazon for a very reasonable price. Very happy with the finished article overall.
