Description
The MiniArt 2-38038 1/35 German Tractor D8506 with Trailer is a comprehensive combo kit that pairs the classic Lanz Bulldog D8506 civilian/agricultural tractor with a matching cargo trailer. In 1/35 scale, this kit reflects a versatile workhorse from 1930s-1940s Germany, often employed for fieldwork, local transport, and wartime logistics-a true portrayal of rural and industrial life in the era.
This Kit includes:
– A finely detailed tractor model, featuring a bolt-faceted chassis, authentic single-cylinder hot-bulb engine, canopy, steering column, pedals, hand controls, and optional driver figure (female civilian).
– An articulated cargo trailer, realistically bedded with high wooden sideboards, suitable for hauling barrels, bags, crates, or tools.
– Scene props: 12 jerry cans, 7 wooden barrels, 9 cloth sacks, and 1 seated figure, ideal for creating dynamic rural or logistics-themed dioramas.
The kit contains grey plastic sprues, separate tread pieces for accurate tire detail, a clear sprue for windscreen and lights, and a photo-etched fret for finework like grills, panels, and control linkages. It offers two build options-with or without driver-and includes a decal sheet featuring two schemes along with a full-color instruction booklet with painting profiles.
This kit is designed for intermediate to advanced modelers and offers a rich opportunity to recreate bucolic field scenes, village settings, or utility transport operations in mid-20th-century Germany. It’s as much a collectible display as it is a functional diorama piece.
