Does anyone know where I can get a 1/35 Unimog from.
I am planning on scratchbuilding a buffel APC which is based on the unimog chassis. Scale drawings or referances will also be great
Thanks.

Hey there,

Revell of Germany makes a 1/35 Unimog, should be fairly easy to get.

Hi Brandon, Revell (kit# 03020) does a 1/35 scale Unimog. The Revell version is of a U1300 L. The Buffel is built on the 416 chassis (1200?), not sure of the differences if any.

As for references, PrimePortal has a very nice walkround.

An ongoing Scratchbuilt Buffel.

Hope this helps

Hi everyone!

I was wondering if anyone has a 1/35 scale buffel that they could maybe take measurements of, I mainly need the drivers cabin and the crew compartment.

Thanks!
