If you make a purchase, CreaWell may earn a small commission — at no extra cost to you. Shipping handled by partner site - see retailer for delivery details. Key Features & Highlights Scale: 1 : 35 plastic model assembly kit. Includes four Soviet commander figures in various poses (command, radio, map-planning) plus the staff car vehicle for setting a command scene. The staff vehicle is modelled on the German Type 82 “Kübelwagen” captured and reused by Soviet forces, giving historical interest and modelling variety. Detailed figure accessories and decals included for Russian shoulder insignia and vehicle registration markings. How to Build & Modelling Tips This kit is suitable for modelers comfortable with figure assembly and basic vehicle modelling. Start by assembling the staff vehicle chassis and body, paint the captured-vehicle scheme (e.g., Soviet repaint over German base). Then build and pose the figures: choose a dynamic pose (radio operator, pointing commander, map on bonnet, etc.). Use washes and dry-brushing to highlight folds, uniforms, and creases on figures. For the vehicle, weather the body and track area to replicate captured-vehicle usage: dust, mud spatter, Soviet-style stencils. Why This Kit Works for Dioramas Adding commanders and a staff car creates a narrative beyond just tanks and infantry. Whether you’re setting up a command post behind the front lines or a captured-vehicle display, this kit adds character. The combination of figures and vehicle improves visual interest and elevates your display from static to story-driven. Explore our modelcars products
