Panzer Art RE35-017 Kinn Mantlet with Cast Marks for Panther G Tank 1/35

Panzer Art RE35-017 is a high-quality upgrade set designed for 1/35 scale Panther G tank models. This product allows you to replace the standard plastic gun mantlet cover, known as the kinn mantlet, with an exceptionally detailed part made from high-quality resin. The main advantage of this component is the presence of realistic cast marks, which replicate the authentic character of armor produced by the German armaments industry during the late period of World War II.

Scale and Purpose

• Scale: 1/35
• Suitable for all Panther Ausf. G models, regardless of the base plastic kit manufacturer (Tamiya, Dragon, Revell, Zvezda, etc.).

Historical Background

The Panther Ausf. G tank was one of the most technologically advanced German medium tanks used during World War II. It featured an improved turret design and sharply sloped armor, which enhanced its combat capabilities. The Panther G debuted on both the Eastern and Western Fronts in 1944–1945, making its mark in battles such as the Normandy campaign, Ardennes, and the defense of Germany.

Product Features

• Material: resin (precise casting allows even the smallest surface details to be reproduced).
• Realistic cast marks as well as characteristic scratches and textures that standard plastic parts cannot replicate.
• Easy assembly – the component directly replaces the base kit part.
• The set requires assembly and painting with modeling paints.

The product is particularly recommended for historical diorama collectors, World War II armor enthusiasts, and anyone who appreciates the educational value of model building.

Build difficulty: 2/5 – simple assembly, requiring only basic skills in working with resin.

The Panzer Art RE35-017 set guarantees a noticeable increase in realism for any Panther G replica and is an outstanding choice for all historical modeling enthusiasts.
