WWII US Army M8 Greyhound Armored Car with 5 Crew Figures 1/35 Resin Kit

About This Kit

This 1/35 scale resin kit captures the iconic M8 Greyhound armored car with a detailed five-figure crew ensemble. The kit faithfully reproduces the distinctive six-wheeled reconnaissance vehicle that saw extensive service throughout the European and Pacific theaters of WWII. The sculpted figures demonstrate varied poses and actions, including crew members in relaxed stances, a gunner manning the turret-mounted weapon system, and soldiers in dynamic positions that suggest active field operations. All figures are rendered wearing period-appropriate uniforms and steel combat helmets with excellent anatomical detail.

The vehicle itself features sharply defined panel lines, accurate wheel geometry with deep tread detail, and a finely molded turret assembly with the characteristic gun mount. The crew figures showcase crisp uniform folds and naturalistic proportions typical of high-quality resin casting. Assembly will require careful separation from casting blocks and careful paint application to achieve the weathered appearance visible in the reference photography. Standard glue and modeling techniques apply to this unassembled kit.

This set is ideally suited for serious WWII enthusiasts building armor-focused dioramas, vehicle-centric vignettes, or period military collections. The varied crew poses and vehicle configuration offer excellent visual storytelling potential for display bases depicting reconnaissance operations, field camps, or convoy scenarios during the 1940s.

Painting & Assembly

This kit arrives unassembled and unpainted, giving you complete creative freedom. We recommend using cyanoacrylate (super glue) for resin assembly. Clean parts with warm soapy water before priming. Use a quality resin primer before painting with acrylics or enamels. Pin larger joints for a stronger bond.
