This lot comprises a collection of ten 1:72 scale die-cast and plastic military model vehicles from The Combat Tanks Collection, published by De Agostini.

Hermann Goring, Italy, 1944), a Hummel self-propelled gun in ambush camouflage (Pz.Div. Feldherrnhalle, Budapest, 1945), an Sd.Kfz. 7/1 half-track with 2cm Flakvierling 38 and trailer, a Schwerer Zugkraftwagen FAMO 18 T, a Steyr 1500/A01 with 2 cm Flak 38, and a Tiger II heavy tank with Henschel turret.
