Re: Brickie's Ford Tfc
Not sure about the Tfc, you may be right, but RPM #35017, 1/35 M.M.G.S. 1916 Scout Car, is Ford T based ... M.M.G.S. is something like Mobile Machine Gun Scout, it has a Vickers.Brickie wrote:Incidentally, I believe there's a 1/35 version of this out there as well...

Re: Brickie's Ford Tfc
I built the 1/35th version a few years back; a nice little kit, but its tiny; the 1/72 version must be miniscule! The Crews must have been very short men!
As I do Russian Civil War Re-enacting, I have always fancied building a full size replica.

I'll take a pic at some point with something for scale reference, but yes, it's about 4cm long.

Goos stuff. Looks like a "moonshiners" ride kicked up a notch.

Popped to the LHS today and grabbed some HO/OO cobbles and some Tamiya 1/72 Street Furniture, hopefully I can make a nice little diorama...

Re: Brickie's Ford Tfc
Here as promised is a photo of the two Tfc's to scale...
I painted and decalled them today and made the base, I'm just finishing off the accompanying figures.

Re: Brickie's Ford Tfc
They look brilliant and I notice that they make the Machine Gun Car and a US Army ambulance also- must get hold of these kits.
