Tamiya brings you 32581 a 1/48 scale plastic model assembly kit of the WW2 British Armoured Scout Car the Dingo. The model accurately captures the flat-panelled form of the scout car with intuitive parts breakdown, giving modellers the option of assembling the folding roof in deployed or closed position. Comes with 1 marking option included in the kit, allowing depiction of Western Front unit vehicle. Includes 2 figures, which recreate a driver and commander. Combine it with other 1/48 British vehicle models such as Items 32582, 32562, 32546 and more.
The latest addition to the popular 1/48 Military Miniature Series recreates the versatile British armoured scout car “Dingo” Mk.II. Production of the Mk.I evolution of the vehicle began in 1939, around a year after the vehicle was first commissioned by British authorities. It came in at a compact 3.17m in length and 1.7m wide, was ably cushioned by wishbone suspension with coil springs, and thanks to 4-wheel steering with a preselector gearbox it was a highly mobile machine. However, the 4-wheel steering proved somewhat difficult in many hands, and it was phased out in favour of front-wheel steering on the 1941 Mk.II variant. Around 5,000 Mk.II scout cars would be produced between then and 1944, serving in Africa, Italy and even the Normandy landings. Excellent in its own right as a stand-alone model, this piece will also be of great interest to those creating dioramas, particularly those centered around Britishvehicles.
