WWII and Post War US Army


American WWII M7 Priest self propelled guns and the rest of the battalion.


It takes a lot of ammo trucks to keep these guns supplied.


I got a few of them right here.


Armored infantry battalion, mostly Roco M3A1 halftracks.


Many have the 37mm anti-tank gun.  Not that great for tanks in WWII but pretty good against everything else.


Many of these are loaded down with ladders, boxes, crates and other junk.


It takes a lot of supplies to keep an army moving.


That's true post war also, here a modern towed 155 howitzer unit, with a few MLRS in the background in resin.


This group included Fidelis Models supplies, Roco vehicles, Hot Wheels, some generic toys and some long out of  production resin kits.

  4. I feel your pain Philip. Last year I spent months repairing T34 tanks. I cast resin hatches, and bow machine guns, and fuel tanks to replace lost parts. It was worth it, they are much better now!

  5. shotgun6 you have a clever eye. Those are GI Joe toys, I think they were a Happy Meal or some other strange item. They are well over 10 years old.
