1/35 Leyland Retriever General Service (early production), WWII British Truck
ICM 1/35 Leyland Retriever General Service (early production) is a plastic kit of the British WWII truck. The kit offers 257 parts and two marking options. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
The Leyland Retriever was a three-axle British truck with 6×4 drive that carried supplies for British units during the Second World War. An estimated 6,542 vehicles were built, both as General Service cargo trucks and in other versions.
This ICM kit depicts the early production cargo version. The finished model is 196 mm long and 90 mm high; the kit contains 257 parts, and the decals cover two vehicles serving in Europe in 1944 and 1945. It fits a collection of Allied supply vehicles just as well as a diorama of a supply column behind the advancing front.
The 1/35 scale gives plenty of room to bring out the chassis, axles and cargo body; restrained weathering with dust and mud from front-line roads underlines the working character of the vehicle. Paints and glues required for assembly are not included.
Nationality: United Kingdom. Period: World War II.
