Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax #80024 1/32 Scale Diecast U.K. Spitfire MK IX No. 134 Wing Normandy 1944 (2005)

Yet another one sold off years ago, yet another case of seller's remorse 😔

Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax Combat Proven Machines #86000 1/32 Scale Diecast Bf-109G Eismmer - Finland 1943 (2005)

Sometimes I can just kick myself (actually, I feel that way a lot of times!). Some years back I got a fit of sellingitis and sold most of my 1/32 FOV and 21st century planes! ARRRGGH! Damn it! This was one of them. But at least I took some good photos of the plane in the box.

Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax Flyer

As promised, here's the flyer that came with each Forces of Valor set. I believe there were other flyer's as well, but this is the one I found with a couple of my sets. Should I find any more variations, they too will be posted. Only the front and back of the folded-up flyer was scannable so the unfolded flyer had to be photographed.

Forces of Valor (FOV) / Unimax #82006 German Zündapp KS 750 & Side Car Eastern Front 1943 (2004)

I've had this wonderful FOV Zündapp Cycle and Sidecar combo for a good many years, unopened in original box - until September, when I decided to break it out and photograph it! There's so many parts that came with this, it almost qualifies as a model kit and it's loaded to the gills with extras and scenic terrain pieces! And of course the two awesome figures really bring the whole ensemble to life.

The measurements: 

-Cycle w/sidecar: 3" (7.62cm) L x 2" (5.08cm)W x 2.375" (6.03cm) H w/driver 

-Trailer: 2" (5.08cm) L x 1.25" (3.17cm) L x 1" (2.54cm) H

-Cycle w/trailer: 5" (12.7cm) L overall

Box & Contents

The plethora of extras included with the motorcycle

The set includes a nifty little plate that you could mount to a diorama base that you make yourself

Assembly Instructions

This is one vehicle you can't just take out of the box and play with, it needs to be assembled first.

FOV Flyer

I'll blog the whole flyer in a separate post tomorrow

Info Card

All of FOV's products contained these small info cards

Crates & Stuff

Barrels

If you bought a lot of FOV products, you could end up with enough barrels to outfit a fuel dump!

Large Destroyed Wall Section

A more detailed look at the destroyed wall section included with the motorcycle. FOV made this large section, a destroyed corner wall, and a much smaller destroyed wall section, the colors of which were varied.

Curved Sandbag Pile

FOV made curved and straight sandbag piles.

Motorcycle with Sidecar

I tried to pack the trailer with as much of the smaller items as I could, as if to show these guys on a small resupply mission.
