Britains Deetail Trailer (1 Viewer)

[PanzerIII]

Have seen this picture of an Britains Trailer in Army Colour. But I have never seen this in any Britains WW2 set or otherwise, have only seen it issued in Farm Sets in either Orange or Yellow. My Question is: does anyboby know if this is an Original Britains issue, or has it been repainted bye somebody?.

Hi,

I will have to say repaint due to the wheels being yellow and not green. Of course the wheels could be replacements.

Maybe one of the Deetail collectors will know for sure.

All the best

I would say it is probably original. Britains have in the past produced pieces in a different non-catalogued colour that was for sale only in one particular country. They also used to make an item in a colour specifically for boxed sets only, they did a Ford tractor with blue harrow, whilst the harrow was available in a few colours the only way to get the blue one was to by the box set.

Judging by the wear on the piece it all seems to be in the right places.

Hi Dave

Some of the Britains WW2 does actually have yellow wheels originally, as two of my Britains Landrover's:

So it could look like an original colour, but from what set?. It would be nice to find out.
