Rushed into service for the pivotal Battle of Kursk in July 1943, the Panther made an immediate impact with its excellent combination of a powerful long-barrelled 7.5cm gun, thick, well-sloped armour, and good mobility. It was a formidable opponent for any Allied tank on the battlefield.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1\/48 scale kit from Tamiya is a detailed replica of the Panther Ausf.D. A key feature of this series, the kit includes a die-cast metal chassis which provides realistic weight and a solid foundation for the model. It also features user-friendly assembly-type tracks with one-piece straight sections for easy construction, realistic cast textures on the gun mantlet, a commander torso figure, and two marking options for vehicles that fought at the Battle of Kursk.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe die-cast metal chassis provides realistic weight and heft\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eAssembly-type tracks feature one-piece straight sections for easy assembly\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe cast texture of the gun mantlet and fine weld lines are realistically recreated\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe complex overlapping road wheel suspension is accurately detailed\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eA commander torso figure is included for installation in the cupola\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePaint Options:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eIncludes markings for two vehicles from the Battle of Kursk\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eSpecific Ausf.D details such as the horizontal jack position are captured\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eGenuine Tamiya Product\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eScale: 1\/48\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eLength: 186mm (7.32\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eWidth: 73mm (2.87\")\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eHeight: N\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ePieces: N\/A\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eDecal Schemes: 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eSkill Level: Intermediate\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncluded Items\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Model Kit\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Die-Cast Chassis\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Commander Torso Figure\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Set Of Assembly-Type Tracks\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x String for Tow Cables\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Decal Sheet\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Instruction Manual\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eRequired Items\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eABS Plastic Safe Paint\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eModelling Glue\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Tweezers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Scissors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Modelling Knives\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003e1x Modelling Files\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"TAMIYA","offers":[{"title":"Hobbyco","offer_id":40426447044809,"sku":"10032441","price":42.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Hobbies Direct","offer_id":40426424467657,"sku":"10032441","price":53.48,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0024\/9803\/5810\/files\/b5f700d3f4d44c6fa8f753be3c68b165.webp?v=1760579173","url":"https:\/\/www.jbhifi.com.au\/products\/tamiya-1-48-german-panther-ausf-d-tank-scaled-plastic-model-kit","provider":"JB Hi-Fi","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
