tiawan dodge wc52

I have just trawled through my computer and am glad I found these pics
this vehicle was a behemoth and all metal , sadly I no longer have it but I loved it whilst I did

Wow! Look at that detail!

It was an awesome vehicle Jay!

Beautiful truck, Jay, shame you had to let it go.

Taowan makes some amazing metal vehicles, but always in very limited numbers. I had my eye on a Deuce and a half they made a few years ago. Actually pulled the trigger on it and was a little relieved to find it had sold out.

It is nice to have some photo evidence of it to remember.

And darned if I don't find this when snooping around:

Those Taowan vehicles are museum quality. I have the 21C WC 42 and it's nice, but not up to this standard.

It truly is/was a beauty! How could you bear to part with such a magnificent model?

Cheers guys.
That was an awesome truck too Bri

Didn't you have any children you could sell to the circus?
How about a couple of kidneys you could auction?

Just looking at it my fingers were itching to add some "weathering" such as mud splatters.
Truly awesome model.
Did you sell the figures with it?

I did apart from the driver and the officer up front as these are real heroes range and manufactured by Ertl  , they have a 64 action man /joe body ,but better hands and different head sculpts , its what don Levine wanted G.I. Joe to become and I believe he had something to do with Ertl after Hasbro and that's why they have the same body , although they are marked Ertl  , they are out there but not that many where produced , they initially came as a fireman and police man

the moustached fella is harder to find,but he is an Ertl real hero too

the fireman


the four guys in the back where various Cotswolds figures and where sold not so long ago , as i'm paring down my collection to a manageable level .
by my own admission it got out of hand

Great looking figure Jay! I can see why you kept him
