Includes glue, brush, and main paints. Even though the silhouette remained identical, the 2001 Ford Focus WRC was a completely new car, not least because of the engine development entrusted to Cosworth. Thanks to these structural changes, the Focus RS WRC could now compete with its main rivals.

France and Great-Britain simultaneously started basic studies on a supersonic aircraft in 1956. These studies led in 1961 to two distinct projects which were combined on November 29, 1962, into a single project which assembled for main companies: Aérospatiale, BAC, Rolls-Royce and SNECMA. The first prototype 001 left the Toulouse hangar on the 11 December 1967. Concorde had already smashed altitude records (21,000 m) and speed (Mach 2.2). On the 21 January 1976 a new chapter in commercial aviation history began, under the colors of British Airways and Air France. 1:125 Scale model produced as a detailed plastic kit. This model features lots of finely crafted parts as seen on the prototype and includes a decal sheet and easy to follow instructions. This model requires painting and gluing to complete.

English Admiral Lord Horatio Nelson‘s "H.M.S. Victory", three-Decker-vessel that was involved in the Trafalgar battle and is the Royal Navy fifth vessel of that name.  On 28th October 1760 the ship was officially named "Victory". In 1777 Great Britain was at war again and on 8th May 1778 the completed vessel was launched as Admiral Vessel under the command of Admiral Lord Keppel to fight her first battle against the French fleet near the Brittany coast. April 1803 she was armed again, with her appearance very different. Most of the golden ornamentation had been changed, or had been deleted. When she then went back to sea she had the looks that are much admired today. In 1825, the vessel became Portsmouth Chief Admiral Headquarters and kept this honor until 1869. The honor was restored to her 32 years later in 1901. In 1921, the Nautical Research Society, whose president was Lord Milford Haven, organized a campaign to save the Victory and on 12th January she was moved into the oldest dry dock in the world: Portsmouth Dock N°2. It is in this dock that she can still be admired, and remains in remarkable condition. Note: The instructions, which are also available separately, are already included with the purchase of the model kit and do not have to be purchased separately.

The Douglas DC-3 and its military variant Douglas C-47 and Douglas Dakota was a type of aircraft that was built from 1935 onwards in approximately 10,655 originals and 5,424 under license. A total of 16,079 pieces were manufactured, of which 607 were civil and 15,472 were military machines. This is the second highest number built for a passenger or transport aircraft to date. The military versions Douglas C-47 (US Air Force) and Douglas Dakota (Royal Air Force) became known in Germany with the nickname „Rosinen Bomber“ during the Berlin Airlift. The DC-3 was a development of the DC-1, of which only one prototype was built, with the maiden flight on July 1, 1933. During World War II, the DC-3 was used as a transport, tow plane, ambulance and passenger plane. In the American armed forces it had many designations and names, including C-41, C-47, C-48, C-49, C-50, C-51, C-52, C-53, C-68, C- 84, C-117, Skytrain, Skytrooper and in the US Navy it was called R4D. In the Royal Air Force, the aircraft was used under the name „Dakota“.  Includes Cement Brush Main paints

In the early 1980s, Renault Assistance Course was the „mobile workshop“ for racing and rally teams. Vans were used to transport cars on trailers to the race venues. Once there, a small car camp was set up and the final touches were applied to the race cars. As the vans were well stocked with spare parts, accessories, tools and other items, any damage that occurred during a race or rally could be quickly repaired by the mechanics at the track. The race service team ensured that the car was back on the track in the shortest possible time. Not only were the challenges of the day-to-day work on and off the track efficiently met, but these mobile service stations sometimes served as temporary accommodation for the team members. One of these vans was the Renault Estafette, based on the Citroën front-wheel-drive system, which gave it a large, flat load area, four independent suspensions, a sliding side door and a three-wing rear door. It was initially produced as a van with a payload of 800 kg, and from 1965 with 1000 kg, with a flat or high roof and a short or long wheelbase. The first models used the Dauphine‘s 845 cc, 32 hp engine, which was replaced in 1962 by the Renault 8‘s 1108 cc, 45 hp „Sierra Cléon fonte“ engine, and in 1968 by the Renault 12‘s 1289 cc engine. More than 500,000 units were produced until 1980, making the Estafette a symbol of its time.

Tirpitz was a German battleship, the keel of which was laid in 1936 and launched in April 1939. The battleship entered the rope service in the German Navy (German Kriegsmarine) in February 1941. The ship was 254 meters long, 36 meters wide, and had a full displacement of 53,500 tons. Tirpitz's top speed was around 30-31 knots. The main armament was 8 380 mm guns in four twin turrets, and the secondary armament included: 12 150 mm guns or 16 105 mm guns. The Tirpitz was the second Bismarck-class ship. It was ordered to replace in line the old battleship Schleswig-Holstein, completely obsolete in the 1930s - the same one whose volleys on Westerplatte started World War II in Europe. At the time of launching, Tirpitz was the largest German ship. It had good armor, and its main or secondary armament was in no way inferior to its counterparts on British ships. Shortly after entering service - in June and July 1941 - he insured the activities of the German troops as part of Operation Barbarossa, but no more serious actions against the Soviet fleet took place at that time. Following these actions, Tirpitz was forwarded to the base in Trondheim, Norway at the turn of 1941 and 1942, from where he began to operate against Allied convoys sailing with Lend-and-lease to Murmansk via the North Atlantic and Norwegian Sea. In July 1942, the mere departure from the port of the battleship Tirpitz led to the dispersion of the PQ-17 convoy, which was then decimated by German planes and U-boats. Undoubtedly, Tirpitz's presence in the northern waters was a great nuisance for the Royal Navy, and it involved 5-7 British battleships! It is no coincidence that the German ship was nicknamed "Lonely Lord of the North". Accordingly, in 1943-1944 the British undertook several actions with miniature submarines, which led to damage to the ship. However, Tirpitz was not sunk until November 12, 1944, as a result of a raid by heavy Lancaster-class bombers.  Specification Scale: 1:400 Parts: 327 +337 pieces Packaging: 335 x 665 x 100 mm Includes Cement Brush Main paints

Daimler-Benz had a strong presence in the automobile market and was looking for new sales opportunities, particularly in the lucrative American automobile market. With even larger, more luxurious cars and air conditioning—i.e., even more expensive models—the brand achieved a breakthrough in the market. The Mercedes-Benz 450 sold very well and remained popular throughout its 16-year production run without significant changes. A total of 62,298 450 SL models were produced.

The first Range Rover was officially unveiled on June 17, 1970. It was produced from July 1970 to February 1996, undergoing continuous technological development. Its permanent all-wheel drive, coil spring suspension, and 3.5-liter V8 engine revolutionized the off-road vehicle market. It was initially designed as a three-door vehicle. The Range Rover was already considered a model for a number of other luxury off-road vehicles in the 1970s.  Specification Scale: 1:43 Parts: 42 pieces Packaging: 125 x 235 x 45 mm Includes Cement Brush Main paints
