Matchbox / Revell Morris C.8. Mk 2, 17 pdr Gun & Willy's Jeep 1/76 Scale Kit Review

[@carlwear1249]

I remember building that kit about 40 years ago. Still have it in the display cabinet.

[@brunocalico]

The Matchbox boxart and the way they show how the diorama would look like, much better than the Revell box.

[@spykespykerman7497]

Thanks for down loading. Brought back memories .

[@alessiodecarolis]

Perhaps Matchbox could've added some gunners for the 17pdr, Airfix made the same mistake with the 8,8cm & halftrack kit and other guns.

Ceasar miniaturs has two cracking sets with AA gun personnel and/or artillery personell in 1/72 scale

A beautiful kit, bit I would have gladly foregone the jeep for gun crew

[@TOYSOLDIERREVIEW]

Love the old gun tractors, great kit review!!

[@rotwang2000]

This kit was OOP for years. A friend of mine tracked one down in Australia, but he gladly paid the expense because the common knowledge of the day was that the mould was broken and the kit would never be produced again. Only a few weeks later did Revell announce they were reissuing the kit ...

I love these old matchbox kits, always hoping revell will re-release the panzer mk 3 kit

@@paulclow3398 Was that the one on sand with a dead cow's head? had the original when I was a kid.

[@paulclow3398]

@@ajivins1 yeah that's the one, I've got 2 of the matchbox kits, built one but the tracks weren't very flexible and snapped so I used the tracks from a airfix stug 3

[@ajivins1]

@@paulclow3398 I did the one when I was a kid but that was all. The worst tracks I came up against were on the Airfix Panther. They just weren't long enough! They were tight even when around the wheels without the back ones in place and I had to boil and stretch them, using staples under the fenders to hold them in place!

[@kevinhale9400]

Don’t forget the Valentine Archer which had the 17 per mounted facing backwards. Nice tank.

[@sandtable8091]

Big fan of your videos. The SMLE is the No.1 mk 3. Would love a look around your RF army.

[@ajivins1]

Saw the Famo Half-Track one in a model shop, that was about £14.00

[@garyjust.johnson1436]

Awesome!

Airfix priced by series,Matchbox priced by colour.

[@monumentstosuffering2995]
