TAMIYA 1/35 U.S. MCI Cartons Vietnam War TAM12685 Plastic Models Armor/Military Misc

Great product

Obviously a 1/35th scale C-rat carton will be really small. There is a bit of a challenge for this old guy to assemble the carton. I've got cataracts and cutting the pieces out is a little challenging. The folding on the line is another challenge. If you are off a little because of the scale the parts won't fit together.HOWEVER, however if you do all the things correctly the end result is very convincing. I've yet to try and make an individual C-rat meal box and I may try to make at least one. I'm sure the same thing applies to the smaller box but the increase in getting it right will be a bit tougher.It is a good product, very convincing when completed.

Great

They looked great with the markings. I thought they would be cardboard. Tough to get folded.

To scale and very detailed. With patients and effort you can make several cases of “C Rats”. You’ll need some tacky glue and perseverance.

This is the perfect item to add more detail to a Vietnam era vehicle model or scene. Some tedious folding involved, but patience gives great rewards.

Always need ration boxes! Tamiya fits the build. Just take your time. Don't worry if the box looks beat up, from personal experience they get destroyed in real life!

Perfect addition to a US Aircav APC interior detailing.
