Forces of Valor 1/32 German 3 ton Cargo Truck # 80038

With approximately 140,000 made by Opel, the German 3-Ton Cargo Truck was the workhorse of the German Army.

These iconic German light trucks were employed widely throughout Europe from the mid-1930s through WWII and beyond.

The Cargo Truck was a multi-purpose backbone vehicle for the German army that became a beloved emblem of military success because it was reliable and easy to repair.

The Opel Blitz was a series of light and medium-weight trucks produced between 1930 and 1975 for different commercial and military reasons, but it is most remembered for its participation in WWII.

This 3-ton workhorse saw action in all German theatres, transporting troops and supplies as well as serving as a service truck for Messerschmitt Me 323.

Because of the role GM played in its development—at the time, Opel was a subsidiary of the American manufacturer—the truck's history is a bit contentious.

The Opel Blitz was featured in the film "Raiders of the Lost Ark," and it remained one of Nazi Germany's wartime icons.

The 1/32 model Opel Kfz.305 Blitz truck from Forces of Valor is made up of a mix of diecast metal and plastic components and features a lot of scale detail.

The cab is made of diecast metal, which accounts for the majority of the model's weight. For maximum detail, side mirrors, headlights, and field equipment are all separately attached and manufactured in plastic.

The removable cover includes hand-painted window straps and the look and feel of canvas cloth stretched across support beams, while the rear cargo space has imitation wood grain patterns.

Equipment bins, a rack, and a spare tyre are put under the bed, and the drive train is precisely reproduced.

The "Forces of Valor" line offers ready-to-assemble diecast replicas of military vehicles at a reasonable price.

Diecast vehicles from the "Forces of Valor" series include: The body is made of diecast metal with some plastic components.

The turret rotates, the weapon is raised, and the hull is precise. On intricate rotating wheels, there are moving tracks.

Panel lines, antennae, access panels, and surface details are all realistic.

Markings and placards printed on a pad that won't fade or peel like decals.
