The British WWII Universal Carrier, often referred to as the Bren Gun Carrier, was one of the most widely used armored vehicles during the Second World War. Compact and highly versatile, it was designed for a variety of roles, including transporting infantry, towing artillery, and carrying supplies. The vehicle featured light armor and an open top, providing mobility and flexibility in both offensive and defensive operations. Powered by a Ford engine, the Universal Carrier could traverse a range of terrains, making it ideal for reconnaissance, communications, and support duties. Its adaptability and ease of use made it a vital component of the British Army's mechanized forces throughout the war.
The Victrix British Universal Carrier 12mm Scale Kit offers an impressive and versatile set, perfect for both collectors and wargamers. In this kit, you can build several variants of the iconic Universal Carrier, including standard carriers, flamethrower versions (British and Canadian), mortar, .50 cal (front and rear-mounted), PIAT, anti-tank rifle, Vickers, and Forward Observation Officer (FOO) variants. The set includes an extensive range of 90 crew figures, with options for both Desert and European theaters. These figures cover an array of roles, including firing .50 cal, drivers, co-drivers, firing Vickers, PIAT, and anti-tank rifles, mortar loaders and operators, radio operators, forward observation officers, Bren gunners, and rifle crew sitting in the back of the carriers. This comprehensive kit allows for a high level of customization, making it ideal for recreating historically accurate scenes or building a unique tabletop army.
