WTTF:
1:35 Sea Containers for an upcoming diorama. I need around 20 of these kits. Any is better than none.

I have an unbuilt 1/32 scale Esci container. It looks pretty good once built/painted.

Here is another I had done a while ago to see what it looks like. Trailer not included.



Here it is w/an M932A2 tractor for a little scale comparison.


Let me know if you are interested and we can work something out.

Meng has containers in 1/35th scale, but think they run about $30 each? Also think they come in both sizes, 48 and 53 footers. Tried to find info on Evilbay, but no luck. But that's where I first saw them.

Meng doesn't make a container. In 1/35, Italeri makes a 20' container. Trumpeter does two: a 20' and a 40' container. They are not too expensive (about $25 for the 20 footers, and about $35 for the 4 footers). If he needs a bunch, I'm sure the 1/32 one mixed in would be fine.

Oh yeah. I will take one. Just throw the box out and stick in in a bubble envelope. Save on shipping. PM me later on. Just earily birthday celebrations right now. Ah old fart today.
