Humber Scout Car (1 Viewer)

Here's one surprise I hope will come out at the OTSN Chicago... This wiil be a coup!

The Humber Scout car is perhaps one of the best known vehicles of WW-II, and used in almost every British and commonwealth unit HQ, captured examples were also prized by the German Army.

This compact, 3 ton vehicle was fast, and very well armoured with overhead protection too. Made famous as Michael Cain's vehicle in the film 'A Bridge too Far', the Humber is one of the nicest looking AFV's of all time.

Very nice and would be a great addition to the allied AFV's we are getting at the moment. Thought K&C would have made one for the Arnhem range by now but, I suppose he can only do so much at a time.

Have you noticed that we are a little bereft of information going in to this show? I know the news from K&C (new Tiger) and new Figarti armour but that's about it. There seemed to be more news last year, and if I remember rightly K&C teased us with some diorama images; I know they have showed us the Desert Luftwaffe diorama but again that's it. I'm really a big child and cannot wait to see what's available. I know it would spoil the surprise if all was revealed before the Show, but that wouldn't bother me as I look forward to reviewing all photographs, especially the Figarti "shock and awe". Its a shame that all companies couldn't produce something for the show; I love First Legion Napoleonic figures; I think the show would benefit from their presence i.e. not the company but a first viewing of new porducts. Looking forward to JJ's WWI aircraft additions, and hope that Figarti's aircraft is now ready - does anyone remember Collectors Showcase plans to build aircraft? Still only 4 days to show, lets continue guessing what will be revealed, I would love Napoleonic Horse Artillery. Cheers all!

Great idea, this would be a fantastic and highly versatile addition, I must admit I like some of the smaller vehicle offers, what they lack in size, they more than make up in character. Alby
