Tamiya 35337 British Paratroopers - with Small Motorcycle 1:35 Model

This kit includes 4 British paratrooper figures and 2 small folding motorcycle models in 1/35 scale. The motorcycle was originally developed for the British Special Operations Executive (SOE). Between 1942 and 1943 around 3 600 motorcycles were produced and were largely distributed to the 1st and 6th Airborne divisions. Thanks to their folding mechanism they could be packed snugly into small containers and air-dropped so that the paratroopers could use them upon landing. They were employed in the Normandy landings. Paint and glue are not included. « less
