I'm always amazed at the detail of some of these models on this site!

Check out the first link below of Patton's scout car .... Then check out the link below it for the link to the site for other models...

Those models are incredibly expensive up here. A 1/35 Tamiya tank of any type can run $35 to $50 Cdn.
GS would have never been caught in a gussied up jeep(that wouldn't carry that much weight anyway. A Jeep is/was a 1/4 ton vehicle.). Somebody was in fantasy land. snicker.

the Scout or Command car was not a Jeep,

it was a truck (likely a 5/4 ton) made by White,

Every once in awhile I go back to that site and check some more models and I found this incredible detailed figure. Look at the size of it compared to the original helmet in the back ground...
