The kit models the .30 caliber U.S. World War II infantry rifle with wood parts molded in separate colors, and it can be built with the bolt retracted, with a bayonet fixed, or as the short-barrel T26 Tanker Garand. Release is set for January 31, 2027, and figures are not included.","whyItMatters":"Little Armory's draw is scale-compatibility with action figures, so a kit that carries the M1's en bloc clip, bayonet, and a tanker variant gives figure collectors three display states out of one runner.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe kit is a runner set in polystyrene, molded in black and brown and measuring roughly 9 centimeters assembled, so the stock and receiver read as separate materials without paint. The loaded clip comes as a part, and the bolt can be shown retracted or the rifle fitted with a bayonet, which covers the M1 at rest and in motion. Handled on Amazon.co.jp since September 10, the kit is scheduled for release on January 31, 2027. It requires adhesive, tools, and paint, none of which are included, and no figure ships with it. The T26 Tanker Garand gives the same runner a shorter second build.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"TOMYTEC's Little Armory is adding a 1/12 M1 Garand kit. Amazon.co.jp preorders are open at 2,178 yen.
