Hi all,

Finally there's an accurate 1/35 model of the Conex Container. This is the predecessor of the contemporary ISO Container.
The Conex was used extensively, by different armies, during most of the modern conflicts and is still in use today.
During the Vietnam conflict is was used for transport and storage but also to build bunkers with.
This 1/35 model consists of 7 resin parts and can be build open or closed.

Very nice Mark. I have a Vietnam base in the planning stages and this item would fit in nicely there.
