"Ben Hur" was one of the manufacturers, so were Bantam and Willys Overland

I fancy the BATUS offering. It will bring back some great memories.

OOB build maybe bud?

That’s almost enough to buy this, plus a bunch of horses to stick in front of it and a figure to put inside it as a driver …

I remember my mate Ibbo, 6' 5" of skin and bone, and he could wind himself into the drivers seat.....

Looks like our American cousins are getting worried about suicide drones....

The M1X is basically a technology demonstrator that originates with the manufacturer, General Dynamics Land Systems. Just a few days ago, the US Army announced its own M1E3 programme, but that article doesn’t really say anything about how that will look.

Frm MiniArt - 'new kit coming son'

Was cheese ever sold this way? I recall open market stalls in the 60's selling cheese, but nothing like this! One important thing missing - a set of weighing scales = those were a feature of Roman 'shops', so a set of scales would be present. An elegantly dressed woman, with high heels & a pearl necklace - usual attire for food shopping?. Some of the latest MiniArt sets are a little off-beam to me!

I love the spare wheels for the barrow on the hand truck myself……

[Neil Merryweather]

I don't believe the cheese seller would be wearing, never mind be able to afford, those high heels.
and surely the gloves are anachronistic?
and don't professionals cut cheese with a ..... cheesewire?
