First impressions - Tamiya 1/35 Famo tank transporter

We take a look at the now 20 year old kit of the Famous with its transporter trailer.

Built the Tamiya 1/35 Famo without the trailer many years ago. Mine is towing a StuG III using the tow bars. I added all eight figures plus the AG crew. I like to add figures to my 1/35 military models even though I'm just average at painting figures. Built the very detailed engine, undercarriage winch, and storage compartments and then covered them up. These can all be skipped but I like to "do it all". You can fill the bed up with all sorts of drums, crates, tools etc.. AG crew = Tamiya Pz crew "at rest". German grey, 1st PzD, France, '43. StuG III also Tamiya, Ger yellow with camo pattern like box art or rather my attempt at same. Cheers.

I built it when it first came out just after the dragon wagon, I recall I git some resin stowage for it

Good day Jason, great first impression video. I enjoy your videos, as I always have. I'm not much into vehicle building. The kit looks amazing and not too complicated but not overwhelming as you said. Have a great day and I'm looking forward to your next video.

Hi Jason, great review. I have been looking at getting one of these for a while now. I have a Scammell with trailer I plan to build soon and these would look nice in the same shelf. I saw the ad this morning. I watched it all the way through. Didn't take long, hope it helps the charity. See you soon.

That's a very cool kit and I used to have that kit but mine had the tank to, but I traded it off for several car kits!
