It featured a stand and fall collar. While enlisted troops and non-commissioned officers were issued with uniform, officers were expected to ready their own. Officers were also required to use their own sword, which led to a plethora of different lengths, shapes, tsuba hand guards and so on. Some blades were kept in leather scabbards, while others used bound cloth grips. Privately-owned pistols were often carried.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTamiya\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eManufacturer item\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e35341\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eStore SKU\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTAM35341\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eProduct type\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMilitary Vehicle Model Kit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eScale\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/35\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eConstruction\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAssembly kit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth scope=\"row\"\u003eManufacturer feature\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eThis realistic set contains 4 figures depicting Japanese Army Officers in a strategy meeting in the field.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated collections\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tamiya-military-models\"\u003eTamiya Military Models \u0026amp; Armor\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tamiya-1-35-military-models\"\u003eTamiya 1\/35 Military Models\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/military-models\"\u003eMilitary Models\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tamiya-paints\"\u003eTamiya Paints \u0026amp; Modeling Supplies\u003c\/a\u003e · \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/tamiya-models\"\u003eAll Tamiya Model Kits\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67986307317834,"sku":"TAM35341","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/megahobby.com\/products\/tam35341","provider":"Mega Hobby","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
