Milicast BR02 1/76 Resin WWII Russian BT5A 76.2 Artillery Tank

The BT Series was based on 2 Christie tanks purchased from the USA in 1931. These were designated as the BT1 with the first series production of the new Fast Tank being ready in 1932 as the BT2 armed with a 37mm gun. Further development produced the BT3 and BT4 and in 1933 the BT5 was developed incorporating numerous changes but most importantly with a new 45mm gun in an enlarged turret. These tanks would remain in service until, and including, the first years of the Great Patriotic War having previously seen action in the Spanish Civil War, the brief hostilities with Japan in Manchuria in 1938 and in the Winter War of 1940 against Finland. They would also participate in the Soviet-German partition of Poland in 1939.Another version built on this chassis was the Artillery Tank. Armed with the 76.2mm L/16.5 gun in an enlarged turret used for fire support for the assault tanks.

These models are imported from Milicast in the United Kingdom and are first quality.

 

International Buyers – Please Note: 

Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility.

Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying.

Please note: I have no love of import/export taxes or customs duties. That said, I pay mine and if your country has them it is your responsibility to pay yours. Many sellers raise their shipping or merchandise prices to offset the added expense caused by customs returns when customers fail to pay or pick up their items from customs. I refuse to penalize good customers for this-I simply block bad ones from purchasing my goods in the future.

 

I combine shipping whenever possible to the same address/eBay account unless otherwise requested.

Slower method, but you see shipping cost prior to paying: Order all of your items, DO NOT PAY, get combined invoice from me, pay, then I ship.

Fastest method-order all of your items, pay, I adjust your invoice for any overpayment and ship immediately.

As a general rule (90+% of the time) more items = significantly lower shipping costs per item.
