{"product_id":"1-35-german-tank-destroyer-marder-i","title":"1\/35 German Tank Destroyer Marder I","description":"This historical model assembly kit depicts the German Tank Destroyer Marder I. The Marder I was one of the early German efforts to update a military that - despite crushing early successes against Poland and the Allied early in WWII - was in sore need of mechanization. Based upon the French Lorraine supply tractor, it was one of a number of commandeered vehicles pressed into German service. Around 170 were produced from May 1942, and their 7.5cm Pak40 anti-tank gun was a threat to Allied AFVs in France post-Normandy landings, and also on the Eastern Front and even North Africa.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cli\u003e 1\/35 scale plastic model assembly kit.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompact chassis and bulging upper hull, complete with rivet and weld line details.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eInterior features gun breech detail, sights, racks, radio equipment and more.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eAssembly type tracks have single piece straight sections.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eTwo figures are pictured looking to the skies, hinting at the breakdown of air control from their Luftwaffe after the Normandy landings.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eComes with three marking options, two from Normandy and one from the Eastern Front.\u003c\/li\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52446813749548,"sku":"TAM35370","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0915\/7863\/0444\/files\/tam35370.jpg?v=1766384402","url":"https:\/\/www.echosixhobbies.com\/products\/1-35-german-tank-destroyer-marder-i","provider":"Echo Six Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
