IBG 35021 Marmon-Herrington Mk.I 1/35 – plastic scale model kit

The IBG 35021 Marmon-Herrington Mk.I in 1/35 scale is a faithfully reproduced plastic model of the popular armored car from the Second World War. This vehicle was designed by the American company Marmon-Herrington specifically for the British Army and the Commonwealth. It was most commonly used by the South African and British armies, making it one of the most important armored cars used on the North African front during the years 1940–1942, and it was also successfully deployed by Polish units in Africa.

The Marmon-Herrington Mk.I stood out with its lightly armored design and four-wheel drive (4x4). The car proved excellent in the vast desert terrain, where its maneuverability and reliability were a huge advantage. It was widely used for reconnaissance, convoy escort, and infantry support. The specially armored cab protected the crew, while its diverse armament—most commonly Bren or Vickers machine guns—increased its versatility.
