Tamiya German Machine Gun Team (Mid-WWII) 1:35 Scale Model Kit 35386

The MG34 and MG42 were two of the main machine guns employed by the Wehrmacht during WWII. Supplied from 1936, the MG34 could fire up to 900 rounds per minute, a number bettered by 1,200 per minute of the MG42, a more mass production-oriented design which was used from 1942. Both were frequently fired from two-pronged stands, but when employed with the Lafette tripod and its optical sight they were even more formidable.

This is a 1/35 scale plastic model assembly set creating 5 figures of a machine gun team.

• It has two figures working the MG34 on its tripod, another firing an MG42 mounted atop a fragment of wall, plus one carrying ammo cases and an officer aiming his MP40 submachine gun.
• Crisp scale depictions of the MG34, MG42 and MP40 add extra realism.
• Decals are incuded for shoulder and collar insignia.
