Autoblindo Daimler »Dingo« Mk.II Scout Car
Recensione del Modello Matchbox in Scala 1:76
Small, fast e lightly armoured cars like the Daimler »Dingo« were routinely used as reconnaissance, security, escort, e command veicoli. Many Dingo Mk.II were captured by the Wehrmacht in Africa ed in the course of the anglo-Canandian landing at Dieppe, e they were subsequently used by Wehrmacht units. At least 124 of the earlier Mk.I version were already in the Wehrmacht inventory following the 1940 campaign in Francia. This Matchbox model of the Daimler Dingo Mk.II has been painted Middle Bronze Green, using Humbrol No. 30 matt acrylic paint. It carries the white square tactical markings of a vehicle from divisional headquarters. The antenna mounts have been drilled open e fitted con black plastic bristles from a cheap paintbrush.
Contenuto
- Monty’s Leyland Retriever Caravan
- Daimler »Dingo« Mk.II Scout Car
- Decalcomanie
Valutazione
- Scale model con detailed interior ed outside stowage.
- Excellent choice of subject, a very attractive e versatile model.
- Few parts, easy to assemble.
- High quality kit. Parts fit well e there is minimal flash.
- Compatibile con Airfix, Fujimi, Nitto, e VAC-U-CAST.
- Approximately 5% smaller than the 1:72 scale figure standard. Compatibility is not an issue here, because the Dingo is unique in this scale ed it will mix well con truppe e veicoli corazzati in scala 1:72.

Matchbox’s Daimler »Dingo« Scout Car is a wonderful model, nicely detailed e very easy to build. It is a well designed e very unique looking vehicle, which will make a nice addition to any armour collection. The twin-pack con Monty’s Caravan is not a good choice. The captured Italian caravan body mounted on a 3 t Leyland Retriever 6x4 chassis is a unique vehicle still on display at the Imperial War Museum, whereas the Dingo is a standard scout car used by many units. Giocatori Wargame e collezionisti would have been better served if a standard cargo body for the Leyland Retriever had been included as well. Conversion is an option, but it will require much more work than a simple swap of alternate kit parts.
