Miniart 1/35 Werkstattkraftwagen auf RS0/01 (35491)

This review will tell you more about Miniart 1/35 Werkstattkraftwagen auf RS0/01 (35491). New kit continues line of tracked vehicles in popular scale. Previous releases were quite fun straight out of the box, so it will be interesting to see what the new one has to offer. It should be a lot, as this one comes with the tools and rear shed. Add some figurines and it will turn into a diorama project. Overall packaging is typical for this brand, so all parts are sealed into one plastic bag. Let's open them all and take a closer look together.

By the way, here you can read review with another great combo-set from the same brand.

Watch this video-review where I show all parts even closer.

First two frames might be familiar if you saw one of the previous releases. We get front cab and track parts here. Note that doors are molded separately and can be opened on the finished vehicle.

Suspension is simple yet quite nicely detailed, so you will spend some time getting everything together. Note also new frame with tools which will be placed in the shed.

Roadwheels come as one-piece, what should make it easier to install. Note that entrance ladder is molded as single part too.

Rear shed should be assembled out of separate panels. There is no wooden texture on those, but I would recommend to play with weathering.

Chassis and cab should be glued out of several components, but there are guiding elements which will help you.

Tools and working table come on the next frames. Those are looking great and might be familiar to some of you as they were sold separately.

There is actually a huge choice of items, so I wonder if it is really necessary to use all of them. Separate track links look fine, but they will definitely take some time for assembly.

Miniart also provides the engine here, and it is quite detailed. Moreover, there is an option to open the bonnet in order to show this powerplant.

Last frame is the biggest in the kit and carries mix of various parts for the chassis and suspension.

Miniart also provides unpainted PE fret for some fine features on your vehicle. Note that tools are also included here.

Decals are printed in Cartograf, so you don't have to be worried about any quality issues. Application should be easy as well.

Clear frame is packed into separate plastic bag. Molding quality is great, but there are no masks in this kit. By the way, you can see all marking options on the photo below.

Assembly manual is typical for this brand. I show all pages in the video-review.

New set should be already available for purchase. Miniart gives us a nice chance to build unusual version of this RS0, and there are plenty of assembly options included. Overall quality looks great out of the box. Moreover, it is nice to see possible variations on how you can assemble the model, as it might be handy for some diorama ideas. As for the figurines, you can get them from the same brand too. :)
