Takom 2193 1/35 M29 Weasel Arctic/Antarctic Expedition Vehicle

The M29 Weasel was a versatile tracked vehicle originally developed by the United States during World War II for use in snow and swampy terrain. After the war, it was adapted for Arctic and Antarctic expeditions due to its ability to traverse difficult environments. The Weasel featured a lightweight, amphibious design with tracks that allowed it to move easily over snow, ice, and rugged terrain, making it ideal for exploration and research in extreme conditions.

During its time in service with expeditions, the M29 Weasel was used to transport personnel, equipment, and supplies in remote, frozen landscapes. Its durability and adaptability made it a reliable vehicle in harsh climates, and it played a crucial role in several scientific missions, including those to Antarctica.

Takom's 1/35 scale M29 Weasel Arctic/Antarctic Expedition Vehicle includes PE and clear parts, as well as 'link & length' style tracks, and beautifully rendered interior detail - allowing you to recreate this characterful vehicle in its polar exploration guise.
