In 1948 the Mechanical Horse was superseded by the Scarab, with a larger engine, the Scarab was not only more powerful but more stable than its predecessor. The Scarab was used by all the major railway companies of the time, including the Great Western Railway for their town parcel delivery services.

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:15:26 +0000

The Ex Mayor modelled here was built in 1925 for the amusement caterer GT Tuby & Sons of Doncaster. The engine was of a special design and was the only one built as a 10nhp Special Scenic Showmans Road Locomotive. It was purchased to haul and power the Scenic Railway that Tuby’s travelled. However, the ride was sold just prior to the engine arriving so it spent its working life driving the dodgems. Its driver Frank Cheffins saved the engine from the scrap yard in the 1940s and sold it on. It passed through several owners including the Rt Hon. Sir William McAlpine where it took pride of place amongst his fine collection of steam and vintage exhibits. It now resides with the Saunders Collection in Bedfordshire and is exhibited all over the UK and in Europe.

Sylvanian Families Field Mouse Family

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:15:26 +0000

Father Darcy Fielding is a cobbler and makes everything from clogs to slippers and sandals. He is a very skilled craftsman, but he is also very shy and rarely says more than "Thank you, madam" or "Ready next week, sir" when Sylvanians come into his shop. Mother Bridget Fielding is a great help to her husband. She not only buys all the shinny material and colorful laces that he needs to make his fine shoes, but also assists him with many customers. The only problem with this is that she is very shy too and rarely speaks above a whisper. Sometimes she has to repeat herself three or four times before people realise that she's even talking to them. Brother Daniel Fielding is as intelligent as can be. But it took his teachers a long time to discover this as he never says more than two words in class. It was only when he got top marks in every subject that they realised just clever he was. Sister Helen Fielding is as quiet as the rest of her family, except when it comes to netball. She walks out onto the netball court and begins to order everyone around as loudly as possible. Age: 4+

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:15:26 +0000

Believed to have been built in 1944, BF110G-4/R6, Wk Nr 730301, was specifically produced as a night fighter and fitted with the FuG220b Liechtenstein SN-32 radar. The aircraft, coded D5+RL, was serving with 1/NJG3 in the night defence of Denmark and Northern Germany when it was surrendered to the allies at Grove airfield in Denmark in May 1945. It was allocated Air Ministry evaluation number Air Min 34 and ferried via Schleswig in Northern Germany to RAE Farnborough where it arrived on 3rd Aug 1945. In May 1946 the aircraft was selected for long term preservation by the Air Ministry Air Historical Branch and it was displayed at a number of locations throughout the 1950s and 60s. In August 1973 it was moved to RAF St Athan, South Wales where volunteers completely stripped, restored and repainted the aircraft in a blue/grey scheme with its original codes D5+RL. In 1978 it was transported to the new Battle of Britain Museum at Hendon (now the RAF Museum), where it has been displayed ever since. Model features photo-etched aerials.

Corgi - AA38403 - Blenheim MkIF - K7159, 54 OTU RAF, Summer 1941 - NEW

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:15:26 +0000

Bristol Blenheim K7159 was originally built in 1936 as one of the first MkI bombers to come off the production line. It was then converted to fighter standard in late 1938 and equipped with AI (Airborne Interception) night fighting radar during the latter part of 1939. Although the Blenheim was soon surpassed in the night-fighting role by more capable machines, its initial use proved the concept of using radar wave technology as an effective method of finding enemy aircraft attacking by night. This example is shown in the scheme and markings worn while serving with No. 54 OTU (Operational Training Unit) at Church Fenton, Yorkshire in 1941 after its withdrawal from front-line RAF service. Features include additional photo-etched aerials and rotating turret gun.

Guy Harold Radford, the creator of Radford Coachworks, first set about designing an estate car conversion for the Bentley MkVI in 1948, christening the conversion ‘Countryman’. Such was the quality of the conversion that it took first prize at the coveted concours delegance at Cannes. After a number of management buy-outs, the Coachbuilders set to work on the conversion that they would become synonymous with, the Radford Mini de Ville. Throughout the Swinging Sixties, Mini conversions continued to account for the majority of the company’s turnover including famous specials for the likes of Peter Sellers and Paul McCartney. The latter-day Radford Mini de Ville S, modeled here, wears the same number plate as Harold Radford's early Countryman demonstrators.

The Capri’s rising value among today’s collectors of classic cars reflects the fact that during the 1970s a 3.0S Capri was as much of a hero car to children of the time as any product from Maranello or Newport Pagnell, in some ways more so because the Capri was, tantalizingly, almost attainable. A whole generation of small boys grew up emulating their TV heroes in playgrounds all over Britain; kicking in imaginary doors – their weapons held high to their chests – screeching to a halt and jumping out of an imaginary Capri, much like the one modelled here, immediately after a professionally executed handbrake turn.

On 11th September 1940, Feldwebel Hermann Brinkmann and his Bordfunker Uffz. Erwin Grüschow of 2 Staffel, ZG26 were assigned as bomber escort for an attack on London. On attempting to start their Bf110 C-3 neither engine would fire and the crew quickly ran to a spare, a very early and somewhat war weary C-1, U8+HL, of 3 Staffel, ZG26. The mission proceeded and after a ferocious battle with RAF squadrons over the south east of England the Bf110s retreated to the south to await the return of the bombers. During this manoevre one of Brinkmann’s engines seized up and he had to break formation. Despite diving low and heading for France he was spotted and attacked by RAF fighters. With hits to his other engine Brinkmann had no choice but to put down his stricken aircraft. U8+HL belly landed at Cobham Farm, Charing. Both crew members survived and were taken as POWs. By the end of the action the Luftwaffe had lost 25 aircraft (5 Bf110Cs from ZG26) with 60 aircrew killed or captured, whilst the RAF lost 29 fighters with 17 pilots killed.

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:15:26 +0000

The prototype Do17 was built in 1934 in response to a Lufthansa requirement for a 6-passenger mailplane. However the design was rejected, partly due to the slim fuselage which would later give the plane its nickname of ‘The Flying Pencil’. Nevertheless military interest was shown in the design and it was developed as a medium bomber and long range reconnaissance aircraft. The Do17Z was a development of earlier marks designed specifically as a medium bomber. It was used extensively on all fronts during WWII although by 1942 it started to be withdrawn from mainline duties. KG3 was a Luftwaffe bomber wing whose units participated on all of the fronts in the European theatre until it was disbanded in September-October 1944. It operated two of the major German bomber types; the Dornier Do17 and the Junkers Ju88. This model represents an aircraft of 7 Staffel, KG3 based on the Russian front during the winter of 1941/42. It wears a hastily applied overall wash of white camouflage, well suited to the severe winter weather on the eastern front.

In 1940 the Regia Aeronautica of Italy, negotiated the purchase of JU87 ‘Stukas’ from its Axis ally Germany to replace its own SM85 divebombers that had been declared unsuitable for combat operations. During July 1940, 15 Italian pilots arrived for intensive training on the JU87 at the Luftwaffe ‘Stuka’ training school in Graz, Austria with a similar number arriving the following month. The first batch of JU87s supplied were from existing Luftwaffe units so Italian emblems and insignia were painted over the original German markings. To further personalise their aircraft the ‘Stuka’ was re-named ‘Picchiatello’ by the Italian crews. Initially equipping 96 Gruppo based in Sicily, the Regia Aeronautica was the first air arm to use the JU87 in the Mediterranean Theatre. 101 Gruppo was originally based in Tirana, Albania and used their JU87s during the Balkans campaign before the unit transferred to Sicily. The JU87R-2 modelled is from 208a Squadriglia, 101 Gruppo as flown by Capitano Raul Zucconi while based at Sicily in June 1941, from where operations were carried out against targets in Malta and on Allied shipping.

He flew several missions in Hurricane R4118 and it was in this aircraft that he damaged two Ju88s and shared in the destruction of a third. He finished the war with 7 confirmed victories and three probables. R4118 flew a total of 49 combat sorties during the Battle of Britain, with five enemy aircraft destroyed, before itself being shot down and damaged in October 1940. In December 1943 it was sent to India as a training aircraft but remained crated there until 1947 when it was struck off charge. It was then donated to a university for engineering instruction and remained there gradually decaying until, in 2001, it returned to the UK and was restored to full flying condition. As the only Hurricane from the Battle of Britain still flying, R4118 is regarded as the most historic British WWII aircraft to survive in flying condition. In 2005 there was a historic event as Wing Commander Bob Foster DFC and Hurricane R4118 were re-united for the first time in 65 years at the Biggin Hill Airshow in Kent.

Sylvanian Families Chocolate Rabbit Family

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 22:15:26 +0000

Welcome to the wonderful world of Sylvanian Families! Sylvanian Families offers a unique blend of traditional family life play incorporating memorable characters with incredible detail that you'll love. The Chocolate Rabbits are famous confectioners who make the most delicious chocolate creations. FATHER Frasier Chocolate has been making sweets since he was a young boy and he's now a confectioner of the highest calibre. It all started when his mother showed him how to make crystallised fruit, which is very easy, but his chocolate creations today are a work of art as well as tasting heavenly. MOTHER Teri Chocolate makes all the fillings for Frasier's chocolate creations, the strawberry surprise being the best. Her kitchen is always full of the rich smell of fruit mixed with the sweet smells of sugar and spices bubbling in pots. It makes your mouth water just thinking about it! BROTHER Coco Chocolate is not permitted to help his father or mother in the preparation of their chocolate concoctions because he eats more than he makes! He's put to useful employment being the delivery boy for the family. SISTER Freya Chocolate, unlike her brother, doesn't eat sweets or chocolate so she helps her mother prepare the fillings. She does eat a lot of fruit though!
