R35 French Light Tank (36437 for Tamiya) 1:35 Eduard Tamiya’s new R35 kit now has an upgrade set thanks to Eduard. As usual with their Photo-Etch (PE) and Mask sets, they arrive in a flat resealable package, with a white backing card protecting the contents and the instructions sandwiched between. This set consists of a single fret of brass, and the majority of the parts are used to replace the pioneer tools that are strapped to the outside of the hull. The chunky kit tie-downs are removed and made good, then replaced with brackets, straps and custom holders for the pick axe, towing cable, axe, engine crank handle, bottle jack, shovel, sledgehammer and pry bar. The latter three fitted on a new 3-slot bracket on the side of the hull. In addition, a flat toolbox is folded up and fixed to a bracket, a replacement stowage basket made for the left fender, more detailed brackets for the kit exhaust muffler, and a heat shield that fits over the shortened kit shield part, which acts as a support for the new part, presenting a thin edge to the viewer.
