Vintage Gunze Sangyo High-Tech Model Panther Sd.Kfz.171 Ausf.G Early Type, MPN G-704, in 1:35 scale. This is an original 1988 Japanese issue and remains factory sealed in its original shrink wrap.
The box identifies this as the early-production Panther Ausf.G and is marked “The 1st lot, 5/1988.”
This is one of Gunze Sangyo’s premium High-Tech Model multimedia kits. According to the manufacturer’s printed description, the kit combines detailed plastic components with brass lathe-turned gun parts, pressed-metal front fenders, white-metal components, and etched metal detail parts.
The manufacturer describes differences between this early Ausf.G and the later-production G model, including details of the turret, exhaust pipes, engine compartment, and other upper components.
An excellent vintage example of Gunze Sangyo’s sophisticated late-1980s multimedia armor kits.
Factory sealed in the original shrink wrap. The shrink wrap is intact with no tears.
There is a small dent at the upper-right corner of the box and a small crease near the same corner, visible in the photographs. There are no other notable dings or dents.
Because the kit remains factory sealed, the contents have not been opened or individually inspected. Please review all photographs for the exact condition of the original packaging.
