A 1/35 scale plastic model kit of the German Krupp Protze truck with a 37mm PaK anti-tank gun and 4 figures, from Tamiya.
Tamiya's 1/35 scale kit combines the Krupp Protze light truck with a towed 37mm PaK 35/36 anti-tank gun and four crew figures, modeling a complete German towing team. Kit No. 35259 is molded in plastic; paint and cement are required but not included.
The Krupp Protze (officially the Kfz.69 and related variants) was a light six-wheeled truck used by the German Army from the 1930s into World War II to tow light artillery pieces such as the 37mm PaK 35/36, one of the Wehrmacht's standard early-war anti-tank guns. Though effective against early-war Allied armor, the 37mm gun was increasingly outmatched as tank armor thickened, earning it the derisive nickname "door knocker" among German troops by the time of the 1941 invasion of the Soviet Union.

FAQs
Is this a real store or just a collection of affiliate links?
It’s both. TinkerTown features gear I actually use, love, and sometimes sell. Some links are affiliate links — if you click them, I might earn a few pennies. It helps me buy more stuff to break.
How do you decide what to feature?
Easy. I tinker with it. If it survives my abuse, earns its keep, or solves a real problem — it goes on the site. If not, it goes in The Duds (yes, that’s a thing).
Do you offer customer support?
If it’s for something I sell directly — yes, you’ll get a real reply from a real human (me or someone I trust). If it’s an affiliate product, you’ll need to deal with the store you bought it from. I just point to the good stuff.
Can I suggest a product or tool?
Absolutely! Got something you swear by (or swore at)? Hit the Contact page and share it. If I like it, I might test it and add it — credit included (unless it explodes).
Are your reviews paid or sponsored?
Nope. No brand pays me to say nice things. Everything you see is tested and written with full creative freedom — including my right to roast terrible tools.
