Empress WW1/Interwar Second Model T Ford released.
« on: 17 July 2020, 08:49:33 AM »
We have a long awaited WW1/Jazz Age release.
Model T Fords in their Australian/British Reconnaissance guise used against Turkish forces into the 1920's. Perfect for Dunster Force scenarios in 1918.

This version is the full body version and currently comes with two crew options although stay tuned as there are two more crew being moulded as we speak. The vehicle comes with some spare kit such as Lewis gun and gun mounts, rifle in holster and extra grip front tyres that can be added to the outside of the usual front wheels.

The model is all pewter and can be purchased as sets with the vehicle and crew OR the vehicle only OR the crew sets only.
The crew sets are useful for other vehicles. 

There will be another version of the vehicle which will be the open, body section removed to help keep the engine cool.  This will be released shorty.

Mark Hargreaves painted one of the vehicles with crew option 2 just before lock down.

You can find these vehicles in the Interwar Vehicle section of the Jazz Age room.

That is a thing of beauty. Don't really have a project that needs one of these, but man, do I want one anyway. My grandad was a Model T nut. He had loads of them over the years. If he had had one with a Lewis gun mount I don't think Primary School Plynkes would have ever stopped playing on it.

Great looking crew too!

Cool! Now who makes suitable Libyan Senussi figures?
Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo
