IJA Tuk-Tuk
« on: November 20, 2017, 01:05:21 AM »
An Objective marker for Bolt Action (or FiveCore.) An Imperial Japanese Army tuk-tuk. I'm not sure how historical it is, but Japan was exporting them in the 1930s and had a habit of using local civilian vehicles painted in IJA colors... so it *might* have been a thing. Once. In Manchuria.

Very cool.

I like its incongruence.

It's a Matchbox toy:



It turned out to be the perfect size, so I bought a half dozen of them for asian scenic ambience.
