Why 1/48 scale?
Tamiya’s 1/48 series bridges the gap between the compact footprint of 1/72 and the intricate detail of 1/35. The result is a highly buildable, display-friendly format with excellent engineering and crisp molding. This scale also pairs beautifully with aircraft in the same scale, allowing modelers to create cohesive dioramas and collections.
New and popular additions now in stock include:
- Panzer 38(t) Ausf. E/F – A compact early-war tank with clean molding and accurate detail.
- German Heavy Tank Destroyer Elefant – A powerful late-war vehicle famous for its long-range firepower.
- U.S. M10 Tank Destroyer – A versatile open-topped design used extensively across European campaigns.
- The KV-1 and KV-2 Soviet heavy tanks – Iconic vehicles known for their imposing armor and battlefield presence.
- British Matilda Mk.III – A key early-war tank from the North African theater.
- Modern ground vehicles and support equipment rounding out the collection.
Our expanded selection covers a wide range of WWII and modern subjects, giving builders more options than ever to develop historically accurate vignettes or complete thematic collections.
