The Microdesign MD 035390 set is a precisely crafted accessory that significantly enhances the realism of 1/35 scale vehicle models—both military and civilian—from the territory of the Soviet Union, faithfully reproducing original license plates from 1946. In post-war USSR, numerous military and civilian vehicles received new registration markings, reflecting the reconstruction of state structures and the development of civil and military transportation. The plates from this period were characteristic of the Soviet registration system and featured unique letter and number patterns.

The Microdesign MD 035390 photo-etched license plate set is dedicated to advanced modelers who value the authenticity of historical Soviet vehicles. The set includes various plate designs, allowing the modeler to adjust them to a range of vehicle types—from trucks and passenger cars to armored vehicles used in the immediate post-World War II period during the country’s reconstruction and the restructuring of the Soviet army.

The use of photo-etched metal ensures exceptional precision and detail that is unattainable with plastic or paper decals. Each plate features clearly defined numbers and letters, and the thin metal sheet allows for realistic bending, matching the operational wear of the modeled vehicles.

Assembly Difficulty: 3/5 – recommended use of precision modeling tools and experience in working with photo-etched parts.

Recommendation: I recommend this set to all historical modelers who want to give their Soviet vehicle models a truly professional and historically accurate look. It is an excellent choice for both collectors and creators of dioramas depicting the post-war era in the USSR, enhancing the value of every model.
