German Panzer IV Tank Model Kit
This Metal Earth steel kit reproduces the WWII German Panzer IV tank with 196 precision-cut parts. It is designed for adult hobbyists and collectors who enjoy detailed scale modelling. The challenging difficulty rating suits builders with patience and steady hands. No glue or paint is needed to complete the model.
True-to-Scale Steel Construction
The model assembles to approximately 5.51 inches long, 2.52 inches wide and 2.36 inches high, capturing the tank's larger turret ring and detailed exterior. Parts connect by tabs and slots, so tweezers or similar tools are recommended for handling. The finished piece has no openings and is meant for display rather than play. Officially licensed packaging confirms authenticity for collectors.
Historical Display Piece for Enthusiasts
This kit represents the Panzer IV variant produced in quantities exceeding 8000 units, which formed roughly half of German tank forces on the Western Front.

Builders seeking a quick snap-together project or a model with interior detail will find this kit does not meet those needs.
