Please also look at the various other items I have for sale on ebay.- Lots of soldiers and vehicles all in 1/24" or 70 mm scale.
Any question better to ask before you buy it. No question is silly. Great investment.
Sent by secure tracked parcel service in the UK and Ebay Global shipping where I am told the 20% VAT is added (Sorry I have no control over this) The model will be well packed and some parts will be in separate parts to save damage in transit. It will be well packed. Not cheap, but these kind of models are not due to the nature of being hand made by a craftsman in limited numbers of around 10 items.
