Large 1:35 scale military model collection, predominantly Tamiya, consisting of vintage built models, figures, vehicles, diorama accessories and spare parts.

The lot also includes a more recent Tamiya British Main Battle Tank Challenger 2 (Desertised), item No. 35274, 1:35 Military Miniature Series No. 274.

Condition therefore varies considerably. Some pieces are complete, while others are incomplete, damaged, loose, previously glued or show paint wear and signs of age. The completeness of the individual old kits and models has not been checked and cannot be guaranteed. The lot is therefore particularly suitable for the military modeller, restorer or diorama builder looking for a large quantity of genuine period model-building material, figures and spare parts.
