I am pleased to announce that we are finally able to offer Tobi's beautiful 28mm sculpt of the M36 "Euzkadi" tankette.
Developed in 1936 by the autonomous government of the Basque country, M36 Trubia-Naval "Euskadi" (or "Euzkadi") was developed as a light tank and infantry support vehicle. It normally had a crew of three and an armament of two machineguns.
Between sixteen and thirty were "officially" built, but several more are likely to have been constructed and hidden away with the collapse of the central Republican authority in the Basque Country.
Sometimes called "The Toy Tank", it was alleged that the engine fan was so loud that very few crewmen could stand being aboard the vehicle for more than thirty minutes at a time!
An iconic vehicle of the Spanish Civil War. To my knowledge, we are the first company to offer this important vehicle in 28mm scale (roughly 1/56) resin. Beautifully done by Tobi Asche. Soldier for scale only.
This is a very simple kit, consisting of the hull, turret, and gun tubes (the machineguns were located inside the tubes).
I am offering the M36 at $20 USD. Because of the resin casting process being used, it will be available in relatively small lots, but we expect regular restocks every two to three weeks. If you order and the item is out of stock, you will be placed on a waiting list and given first crack at the next shipment.
Next on the "Engines of War" agenda? The amazing Ehrhardt sculpted by Tobi, to be followed by an Austro-Hungarian Romfell! Stay tuned.
