has been watching some documentaries lately set in the Western Desert, and was inspired to create this...
Hi, everyone!
Very happy to tell you that our long delayed Garford-Putilov (announced early this year, but delayed due to a number of adventures with the U.S. Post Office) is now finally available for sale.
Developed right before WWI by Putilov, using the chassis of the reliable and widely exported American "Garford" truck, the Garford was one of the most widely used armored vehicles of the WWI era, and saw an amazing service record: WWI, The Russian Civil War, The Russo-Polish War, the Freikorps, the Chinese Civil War, and WWII (when the last surviving example was destroyed in combat against the Germans in late 1941).
Armed with machineguns and a turreted 57mm or 76.2mm gun, the Garford was a truly monstrous beast, and one of the few armored cars of the era actually able to take on a tank and win.
Our model is 1:56 scale, and works quite well with 28-32mm miniatures. Consists of a resin hull, turret, and gun, with metal machinegun barrels and wheels.
Priced at $30 USD. As an added bonus, all shipping costs in the month of July are free, international or domestic.
