Airborne Folding Bicycles in Miniature

During the Second World War British airborne units used a folding bicycle to add mobility after landing, a simple yet effective solution for moving troops quickly. The frame folded at a central hinge so each jumper could carry a bike into action. This 1/35 scale kit replicates that concept and gives modellers an authentic subject to assemble and display.

What the Kit Includes and How Accurate It Is

The set contains two bicycles that can be constructed in either the folded or extended configuration, with separate grips and pedals to increase parts realism. Two figure sculpts are provided, one posed on a bicycle and another shown pushing it, and both figures include alternate head and arm options to vary posture. The layout suits painters who enjoy adding battle-worn finishes and small accessories.

Is this kit hard to assemble for a weekend build?

The assembly is manageable for most hobbyists with basic modelling experience; careful trimming and gentle handling of small parts will speed the build.

Can I pose the bicycles folded and unfolded in the same scene?

Yes, the bicycles can be assembled either folded or extended, so you can depict both states in a diorama to show deployment or movement.
