Expert Modeller (or guy crazy guy...) needed!

Hey Guys, I’m sure you’ve all been awestruck by the sheer awesomeness of the soldat’s expression in this photo:

…always priceless…[(-D]

Anyways, I then saw this on the great evil-bay tonight,

http://cgi.ebay.com/Azimut-1-35-Vickers-B-Utility-Tractor-item-35033_W0QQitemZ350176814204QQihZ022QQcategoryZ2588QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem#ebayphotohosting

$89 is a little above my price range, but I’m sure this could possibly be the best model kit ever produced, if combined with a fig to match the photo…

Whos up for this build?[oX)]

I’ve seen this before.!http://www.comicguide.net/images/smilies/cunao.gif That thing is hilarious.

They promised him a Tiger.

He looks like he’s reeeeelly confused and in some deep “it”…

Would these have been left behind by the B.E.F. at Dunkirk ?

This must be the new super weapon 1946. If you can’t defeat the enemy with a gun. Just make them laugh their heads off and then collect the bodies. I am sure this would have turned the war around.

It’s a German thing…

HAhaha…

it’s like an all-terrain golf cart…

From the look of the driver, im sure that thing was full of chocolate, not munitions.

well, its a vickers vehicle…so, I’m assuming that the Germans captured them from either the BEF or from the Belgians/Dutch. Vickers made a lot of export vehicles…

This later became the AMC Pacer!

LOL! [:D]

Captured from Belgians/Dutch for sure…don’t think the Brits actually used this particular vehicle but could be mistaken. In the early campaigns, if it was captured and motorized, it got pressed into service due to the equipment needs of the various units. This created all kinds of interesting scenarios of course for model builders. [;)]

Now someone just needs to photoshop that german into a Gremlin and we’ll be set!
