It does look good, but I have that spot filled by the Hasegawa 1/48 kit. I did notice they said the Tora Tora Tora replicas were made from modified T-6's, but I think that is not accurate and BT-13's were modified for the Kates.

So is this is designed to fit in with armor and vehicles in a 1/35 diorama? I dont see much call for that with this one,but as a stand alone,it looks great

It can go with some Tamiya and Fine Molds 1/35 stuff… at least utility & staff cars and figures. There is even less of that stuff in 1/32 than there is in 1/35.
