Pre-Order 1/72 French Anti-Tank Gun 25mm S.A 34 Type II

Historical Context & Theme

The 25mm Hotchkiss Anti-Tank Gun modèle 1934 Type II was one of the French Army’s key defensive weapons during the early years of World War II. Compact, mobile, and efficient against early German tanks, this weapon played a vital role in the Battle of France (1940). Its light design allowed rapid deployment, enabling crews to reposition quickly and ambush advancing armor.

This 1/72 scale miniature by Dynamo Models faithfully reproduces the engineering of the original weapon, capturing the blend of French ingenuity and urgency that characterized the defense of 1940. It offers both historical accuracy and exceptional finesse, suitable for collectors and small-scale diorama enthusiasts.

Figure Details & Realism

The model is a highly detailed 3D printed resin kit designed with precision and scale fidelity. Every component — from the barrel and breech to the carriage arms and wheels — is rendered in fine resolution for crisp surface texture and mechanical depth.
At 1/72 scale, this piece balances small size with striking definition, ideal for realistic tabletop scenes or compact displays.

Each part has been engineered for clean assembly, minimal cleanup, and optimal paint adherence. Painters can emphasize metallic tones, battlefield dust, and period camouflage to bring out the realism typical of 1940 French ordnance.
