Metal Time Tank Object 430 (World of Tanks) constructor kit
Metal Time Tank Object 430 (World of Tanks) constructor kit A prototype of this medium tank was developed from 1953 through 1957 to replace the T-54. Several prototypes were manufactured. Later, Soviet authorities wanted a tank with greater nuclear survivability and firepower. As a result, the project was discontinued in 1961, and the decision was made to develop the Object 432. history of protoyp After summing up the results of World War II and analyzing the effectiveness of all types of armaments, the Soviet government thought about the need to modernize its fleet of armored vehicles. First, there was a need to replace the T-54 medium tank, which would correspond to modern realities. Hence, in 1953, a new tank project was initiated, generically named “Object 430”. Several modifications of the fighting vehicle were developed under this name, which later became a basis for the development of “T-64”. In “Object 430” the changes concerned the location and configuration of the engine and the whole engine-transmission compartment. The engine was located across the driving direction in the aft compartment, allowing to expand of inner space for the 4-person crew and ammunition. A characteristic shape of the tank was a hemispherical turret with 248 mm armor at the front and a slot for the main gun - 100 mm D-54TS gun. There was also provision for a 14.5-mm anti-aircraft machine gun KPVT. "Object 430" in later modifications was successfully tested, however, it did not show a significant advantage over the obsolete “T-54”. In 1961 the project was stopped. Successful engineering solutions were taken over by the "Object 432", which eventually evolved into the mass-produced “T-64”. Features, advantages Nevertheless, "Object 430" was a powerful fighting vehicle, in some parameters coming close to heavy tanks. The long-rifled main gun allowed for long-range target shooting. Powerful armor protected the crew and ammunition even from a direct hit of 120-mm guns. The tank could reach speeds of up to 55 km/h on a hard surface and overcome water obstacles to a depth of 5 meters (using underwater driving equipment). In the "Wargaming" popular MMO game "World of Tanks" "Object 430" is a powerful striking force, able to fight with all representatives of the Soviet military industry.

Metal Time Tank Leichttraktor Vs.Kfz.31 (World of Tanks) constructor kit
Metal Time Tank Leichttraktor Vs.Kfz.31 (World of Tanks) constructor kit The Vs.Kfz.31 Leichttraktor (Light tractor), also known at the time as the Kleintraktor (Small tractor), was a prototype German light tank, of which four distinct versions were made. It was developed and tested in secret at the Soviet-German Kama facility, during the Weimar Republic. This was part of the Leichttraktor, also known as the Kleintraktor, project. The tank was designed *around* 1929 and used through early WW2 as a training vehicle. In spite of having a 37 mm cannon, it was rejected in favor of the Panzer I, in a competition to make a new light tank for Germany, like the Grosstraktor project at the same time. Prototyp history The German Wehrmacht started World War II... with tractors. That is what the first German tanks were called. This happened because, under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, which witnessed the defeat of Germany in World War I, the country was not allowed to develop and produce heavily armored fighting vehicles. Therefore, these products had the name of civil technology, and it was not far from the truth. The first samples of German tanks were modernized tractors. An example of this is the Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31 light tank. The development of the tank was carried out by two well-known manufacturers of first-class military equipment: “Krupp” and “Rheinmetall”. They presented two models that differ from each other in some detail. But the main ones were the same. The first tank "Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31" was created on a tractor chassis with 12 rollers, combined into six carts. The chassis was covered with an armor shield, however, the design of the tracks and suspension was vulnerable even to large-caliber small arms. The “Daimler Benz” engine with 100 hp the designers placed it in front, which was a controversial decision. On the one hand, he covered the crew of 4 people, and on the other hand, he was vulnerable to the enemy and increased the risk of immobilizing the combat vehicle in the battle. The welded-riveted turret was moved back, which made the tank look like a self-propelled gun, however, the armament of the "Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31" was not very powerful. The main gun was a 37 mm KwK 36 L/45 cannon, and a 7.92 mm Dreyse machine gun was also mounted on the tank. Features, advantages Chassis vulnerabilities, low movement speed, light armor, and low autonomy made the "Leichttraktor Vs. Kfz.31" not a very popular tank. It was released in a small batch and quickly gave way to another "tractor" "Panzer I". However, in the popular MMO game "World of Tanks" from the "Wargaming" company, "Leichttraktor Vs.Kfz.31" has gained a full-fledged combat history and is quite popular. This tank is designed for beginners, it has tier-I, upgrade options and performs well in tutorial missions and online battles with players of the same level.

Metal Time Tank Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf.G (World of Tanks) constructor kit
Metal Time Pz.Kpfw. II Ausf.G (World of Tanks) constructor kit On June 18, 1938, MAN and Daimler-Benz received an order for an initial batch of 75 Pz II Ausf. G tanks. A prototype was manufactured in 1939. The vehicle was produced from April 1941 through February 1942, with a total of only 12 tanks built. Prototype history World War II brought armored vehicles to the forefront, making them the main striking force. But it all began not with heavy, unstoppable, powerful machines with siege weapons, but with small maneuverable tanks. One of the remarkable examples of engineering creativity of the 1940s is the German "Panzer II Ausf G". A chain of modifications to the basic model, which was one of the most numerous tanks until 1942, led to its appearance. The "Panzer II Ausf G" significantly increased in speed. Unlike its rather slow predecessor, it could reach speeds of up to 50 km/h on the highway, which improves its mobility. Due to its good maneuverability, this light tank could perform tasks of escorting and providing fire cover for infantry even better. Its armor was sufficient to protect against small arms and mines, but artillery strikes became fatal for the Panzer II. The main weapon of the "Panzer II Ausf G" remained the 20mm automatic cannon and the 7.92mm MG-34 machine gun. The main protection was the turret design with ricochet angles, which allowed to soften or deflect enemy shell hits. The “Panzer II Ausf G” crew consisted of three people. Unlike the previous model, the driver and radio operator received viewports in the front and sides of the hull, improving the combat vehicle's maneuverability. Features, advantages During WWII, the "Panzer II Ausf G" was produced in small quantities and is more interesting for its technological innovations than for its victories on the battlefield. However, this model interested the creators of the game "World of Tanks", the company "Wargaming", and they made it part of an extensive fleet of combat vehicles. The "Panzer II Ausf G" has a Tier III level, and upgrade capabilities, and performs well in local battles in urban areas. The "Panzer II Ausf G" model kit for self-assembly is a collaboration between "Wargaming" and "Metal Time Workshop". The "WoT" logo is located on the model's base, and each kit comes with a bonus package from "Wargaming". It contains an activation code for the game, which allows you to start playing the most popular online tank RTS game, as well as the T2 light tank + Slot + 7 Days of WoT premium account + 500 gold.

Metal Time Tank PZ.KPFW. II constructor kit
Metal Time Tank PZ.KPFW. II constructor kit The last modification of the light Pz. II tank. The vehicle featured enhanced armor, the 2 cm KwK 38 gun and improved observation devices. A total of 524 vehicles were built from March 1941 through December 1942. Prototyp history This may sound strange, but the iron mechanical power of the Wehrmacht in World War II began with... a tractor. It was under the name "agricultural tractor LaS 100" that Germany produced the first combat tanks of the largest war of the 20th century. The modification of the basic model Panzer I became the light tank “Panzerkampfwagen II” or “Pz.Kpfw. II”. It was one of the most mass-produced combat vehicles of World War II. By 1942, when they gave way to heavy machines, more than 3,500 of them had been produced. This not-fast tank, weighing about 8 tons, could reach a speed of 40 km/h on the highway and was designed to cover infantry attacks. Its armor was sufficient to protect against small arms and mines, but artillery strikes were fatal to the Panzer II. Moreover, its firepower was hardly impressive. The main weapon of the tank was a 20mm automatic cannon. There were several weapons options - tank modifications with flamethrower systems and heavy machine guns as the main weapon exist. The main protection was the turret design with ricochet angles, which allowed for the softening or reflecting of enemy weapons hits. Features, advantages The crew of the “Pz.Kpfw. II” consisted of three people. The loader and commander had a 7.92 mm MG-34 machine gun at their disposal, located on one front panel with the main weapon. The small size and good maneuverability helped the“Pz.Kpfw. II” successfully perform combat tasks and provide the German army with victories in the first years of the war. The "Pz.Kpfw. II" self-assembly model is an excellent gift for history buffs of military equipment, WWII battle reenactors, and all fans of technical creativity. This model features the recognizable design of the "Pz.Kpfw. II" tank: the geometry of the rotating turret, a chassis on six rollers with a special suspension, hatches, weapons, and engine radiators. Textures and images are applied to surfaces by electrochemical etching, giving the model a resemblance to the original combat vehicle.

Metal Time Tank P 26/40 (World of Tanks) constructor kit
Metal Time Tank P 26/40 (World of Tanks) constructor kit Development of this vehicle started at the end of 1940, but due to difficulties in finding a suitable engine, the first prototype was manufactured only at the beginning of 1942. Mass production was launched in 1943 in Turin. After Italy’s capitulation in the autumn of 1943, the tank entered service under the designation Panzerkampfwagen P40 737(i) and was used by the German reserve divisions as permanent fire positions. A total of 100 vehicles were produced. Prototyp history In the history of World War II, there are tanks that were "unlucky". Some of them were ahead of their time, some were hopelessly behind the times. One of these combat vehicles was the Italian heavy tank "P 26/40". Promising development stalled for years due to technological problems, and as a result, this tank did not become massive and did not have an impact on the battlefields. The "P 26/40" was one of the last riveted hull tanks in its class. In this, it differed from the similar geometry and basic parameters of the Soviet T-34 with its cast and welded parts and assemblies. The second feature was a semi-elliptical spring suspension with rollers assembled in carts. It seemed conditionally vulnerable, unlike more modern form factors. The third problem that was never solved was the engine. Nevertheless, the "P 26/40" was a powerful offensive combat vehicle, which had good armament and driving performance. With a weight of 26 tons, its speed was to 40 km/h on paved roads, and it could autonomously overcome to 280 km. Armor with a thickness of 40-60 mm provided protection against bullets, fragments, mines, and tangential impacts of shells. The main gun of the "P 26/40" was a 75 mm Ansaldo L/34 cannon and two 8 mm Breda machine guns. The crew of "P 26/40" consisted of three people. The commander was in the turret, and served as a gunner. Features, advantages Despite the low popularity of the "P 26/40" tank in real military history, it became very popular due to the military online RTS game “World of Tanks” by “Wargaming”. And the designers of the “Metal Time” company, expanding their tank collection, created a scale model of the "P 26/40" for self-assembly together with “Wargaming”. The “WoT” logo flaunts on the base of the model and a bonus package from “Wargaming” is attached to each kit.

Metal Time Tank AMX-13/75 (World of Tanks) constructor kit
Metal Time Tank AMX-13/75 (World of Tanks) constructor kit Maneuverable light tank with an oscillating turret and a 75 mm autoloader gun that could fire up to 10 shots per minute. At that time, the gun on this vehicle had superior penetration compared to the guns of most other medium tanks. The tank has a decent top-end gun and good dynamic performance. Prototyp history In the last years of World War II strategists and manufacturers of military equipment began to think about new generations of weapons. And one of the successful embodiments of the new concepts of armored fighting vehicles was the French light tank "AMX-13". Its first prototypes appeared in 1945 and its subsequent modifications were used in military operations until the XXI century. This maneuverable tank with a length of 5 meters and a height of 2.4 m originally possessed several unique design features. The most important of these was the "rocking" turret. The main design principle was that after the gun had fired, returning impulse was delivered to the turret and caused a new shell to move to the breech block of the gun and the loader mechanism to push it inside the barrel. This allowed automatic firing at a rate of up to 12 rounds per minute! Considering that such tanks were equipped with a 75-mm gun, this turned the tank into a vehicle for the continuous destruction of everything in the line of fire. Further modifications of the "AMX-13" were equipped with 100-mm and even 155-mm guns. In such a form it could compete with medium tanks and mobile guns. However, another difference of this tank was its speed. It could reach up to 60km/h on a hard surface (up to 400km), get over obstacles up to 60cm high, ditches up to 1.5m deep, and water obstacles up to 0.8m deep. Along with the brilliant characteristics, "AMX-13" also had disadvantages. It had weak armor, which was typical of light tanks, and the downside of rapid fire - the need to replenish ammunition. When the shells ran out in combat, the tank became unarmed and was often doomed to destruction. Features, advantages The "AMX-13" in its various versions took part in many battles in dozens of countries around the world, including the famous battles of the Vietnam War, the Six-Day War with Israel (on three sides), the Second Indo-Pakistan War, and others. The last combat use of this vehicle was seen in 2007 in Cote d'Ivoire. In the popular tank MMO game "World of Tanks" this tank will be a godsend for level 7 players. He will require his crew to be attentive and nimble because ammunition is not endless. "AMX-13/75" - an excellent fighting vehicle for "WoT" fans.

Metal Time Tank TOG II (World of Tanks) constructor kit
Metal Time Tank TOG II (World of Tanks) constructor kit Developed for trench warfare. Initially, the armament was to be placed in the front part of the hull and side sponsons. However, later it was decided not to add sponsons but to mount a turret. By 1943, when the TOG 2* was completed and ready for trials, it was already obsolete. The vehicle never entered service. Prototyp history Before World War II, the British military was concerned with building a fleet of new tanks. It was to be headed by a new super-heavy tank for storming enemy positions. The British had experience in building such vehicles since World War I. They were clumsy huge moving fortresses with powerful armor and armament. Therefore, the object called "TOG II" also had these qualities. The armored monster with a weight of 82 tons, a height of 3 m, and a length of more than 10 m had to strike fear into the enemy. Like its predecessors, the running gear of the tank was concealed inside the hull, and the tracks protruded from the central part, which was an armored capsule for weapons and a crew of six. At first, the designers had an idea to hang the armament also on the sponsons, but then it was moved to the front of the tank and the sponsons became part of the main body. Hatches were made in them for the ejection of shells and loading of ammunition. The main gun of the “TOG II” was a 75mm “QF 17 pounder” anti-tank gun, the best in its class in service in Great Britain. In addition to this, the front of the tank had a slot for a 7.92mm "BESA" machine gun. "The TOG II” was propelled by a 600 hp “Paxman-Ricardo” engine. The speed of the tank was not high, but its purpose was not to make a rapid assault but to destroy trenches and fortifications of the enemy and destroy tanks and manpower of the enemy. The role of the tank as a mobile gun was also considered, but later this idea was rejected. Features, advantages "TOG II" was produced in a single copy and was used as a technology test bed. This model still exists today in a museum in Bovington, England. The super tank did not fire a single shot at the enemy but gave a big boost to technology and inspired engineers to create many heavy combat vehicles. In the popular tank MMO game "World of Tanks" this tank is among the premium tanks. Machine level 6 demonstrates high performance and is upgradeable, which allows you to win a lot of victories in the virtual fields of battle.

Metal Time Tank Conqueror FV214 constructor kit
Metal Time Tank Conqueror FV214 The FV214 Conqueror was conceived in 1946 as a response to two other categories of vehicles: the German panzer tanks that had demonstrated superior firepower during World War II, and the Soviet IS-3 heavy tank that entered service in 1945. The Conqueror’s 120mm gun was considered an advantage, but tank crews generally found the vehicle difficult to maneuver. Once the Centurion was outfitted with a 105mm gun, the Conqueror was withdrawn from use in the 1960s. Prototyp history Large-scale battles did not accompany the Cold War on the battlefield. But fierce battles raged in the design bureaus. New military challenges demanded new technical solutions. British engineers, abandoning the idea of "cruiser" tanks, began to develop heavy ones. One of the promising models was the FV 214 "Conqueror". The project of the over 60 tons tank appeared in 1949, but this tank went into serial production only in 1955. The main weapon of the tank was a 120-mm gun. The length of the fighting vehicle together with the cannon was more than 11 meters. The engine with a power of 810 hp drove this huge thing with a speed of up to 35 km/h on a hard surface. The aiming fire could be made only from a standing position. In combat, the main firepower of the "Conqueror" was two 7.63 mm M1919 machine guns. Distinctive features of the tank's architecture were a turret and hull with ricochet panels and a chassis with four bogies of two rollers and two drive wheels. The crew of the heavy tank consisted of four men. The mechanic driver was in the platform and three other soldiers were in the turret. There was also a commander's turret with all-round visibility. In addition to combat duty in the British Armed Forces, the "Conqueror" was a testing ground for engineering research. Its weak point was considered insufficient protection, but this was corrected in the new modifications. However, the tank could not withstand competition with other models and its production was stopped by the 60s. Features, advantages In the popular tank MMO game "World of Tanks" "Conqueror" is still in service. This premium IX-level tank is a powerful weapon for battles with strong opponents. The self-assembly model FV 214 "Conqueror" is a product of the collaboration of "Wargaming" and "Metal Time Workshop".

Metal Time Tank Cruiser Mk III (World of Tanks) constructor kit
Metal Time Tank Cruiser Mk III (World of Tanks) constructor kit Developed by extensively upgrading two prototype M1931 Christie tanks purchased by the British Army in 1936. The vehicle was designed to be a fast, lightly-armored breakthrough tank. The modified design was deemed successful and became the basis for other cruiser tanks. Sixty-five vehicles of this type were built and saw combat in France and North Africa in 1940 and 1941. Prototyp history The British army began to prepare for the inevitable war at the beginning of the 30s. The industry was moving to a military footing, engineers were looking for advanced solutions for military equipment. American designer D. W. Christie created a chassis of four full-size rubber-coated rollers, planted on spring shock absorbers and two drive gears that move the trucks. This invention was so successful that it gave birth to several generations of tanks. One of the first was the English "cruising" tank "Cruiser Mark III". This light tank had a high speed, up to 50 km/h on a hard road, the ability to overcome obstacles up to 0.6 m high, and a powerful main gun - a 40 mm “QF 2 pounder” anti-tank gun. She was supplemented by a 7.7 mm “Vickers” machine gun. Under the ventilation grilles at the rear of the "Cruiser Mark III" was a 340 hp “Nuffield Liberty” 12-cylinder aircraft engine, superior in power to all similar combat vehicles of the time. The crew consisted of a driver, gunner, loader, and commander. With all these significant advantages, the tank had an important drawback: weak armor protection. Therefore, it was not used as an assault combat vehicle, but provided infantry cover, following more powerful tanks on the battlefield. The British lost dozens of "Cruiser Mark III"s in the fighting in France and brought these vehicles to less hot parts of the front. The era of the American “M4 Sherman” and British medium tanks in 1942 doomed cruiser tanks to oblivion. Features, advantages But in Wargaming's popular MMO World of Tanks, the "Cruiser Mark III" is glorified by players. High speed, maneuverability and a powerful gun make this Tier III tank a valuable trophy. Upgrading this model in the game helps to win battles even with strong opponents in its class.

Metal Time Tank T-34/85 constructor kit
Metal Time Tank T-34/85 constructor kit Final modification of the T-34 tank of 1943. A new three-man gun turret allowed a more powerful 85-mm gun to be mounted. This greatly increased the combat effectiveness of the tank compared to its predecessor, the T-34-76. A total of more than 35,000, in several variants, were produced. Tank history The T-34 medium tank was one of the most mass-produced tanks of the Second World War. In its modification, the "T-34-85", it became the "tank of victory" that completed the defeat of the armored forces of Nazi Germany. Many engineering innovations were applied to the most famous Soviet medium tank. The ricochet angle of the turret armor, the stabilizer of the main gun, speed, and maneuverability brought him the main advantages on the battlefields. The tank's weak points remained insufficient armor protection and gun range. The second problem was solved in the "T-34-85". The main gun was replaced by an 85mm long-range anti-tank gun, which restored parity of firepower with the German combat vehicles "Tiger II" and "Panther". There were numerous books written and countless propaganda films made about the T-34-85 in the USSR. But objectively, it was a successful development of Soviet engineers. The maneuverable tank, which was sufficiently fast and controlled by four crew members, could successfully conduct both a head-on tank battle and cover infantry, as well as serve as a means of transportation for personnel or ammunition on the armor. Its profile was not devoid of elegance and remained a model of tank architecture for a long time. Features, advantages A mini model kit for self-assembly of the “T-34-85” tank of “Metal Time” is a great gift for all fans of military equipment, history of engineering thought, and enthusiasts of technical modeling.

Metal Time Tank T-44 constructor kit
Metal Time Tank T-44 constructor kit After the cancellation of the T-43, a replacement for the T-34 was still desired and work began on the T-44 in late 1943. Three prototypes were produced, with a 122 mm armed design being rejected. The 85 mm variant was accepted for production, which commenced in 1944 and the tank remained in service until the 1970s. Tank history The medium tank “T-44” could have become the best tank of World War II, but it never fired a shot on the battlefield. This combat vehicle was created in 1943 but never came into the front lines. In the last years of the war, the Soviet command realized that despite their quantity and decent mobility and reliability, the “T-34” tanks, even with the 85mm gun modification, were inferior to the best German armored vehicles - the “Tiger II” and “Panther” tanks. In head-to-head battles, the Soviet tanks had no chance due to their weak armor protection. Therefore, it was decided to create a tank with similar mobility and long-range capabilities as the “T-34”, but with significantly reinforced frontal armor. Thus, the “T-44” was born. It underwent significant modifications. The decision was made to abandon the Christie suspension, and increase the power of the gun while maintaining the advantages of a medium "cruiser" tank. The result was a powerful, fast, and well-protected combat vehicle capable of combining the armor protection of a heavy tank with the mobility of a medium one. Modifications were released with 100 mm and even 122 mm caliber guns, but due to the vehicle's weight increase, they had to be abandoned in favor of the 85 mm gun created based on the rapid-fire D5-T gun. Despite its worthy characteristics, the “T-44” was not put into mass production until the end of World War II, so as not to disrupt the production cycle of the “T-34-85”, which had similar parameters. However, after the war, the tank was produced in large batches and remained in service with the Soviet army until the 1970s. Features, advantages A mini-model kit for self-assembly of the “T-44” of the “Metal Time” is a great gift for all military equipment enthusiasts, history of engineering thought, and technical modeling fans.

It stands alongside other legendary "victory tanks" as it successfully fought in many local conflicts even after the war. The "Sherman," named after a hero of the American Civil War, has become the subject of numerous books, films, and comics. Its successful design and the possibility of modifications made this tank almost irreplaceable in battles. The "M4" began serial production in 1942 and was adopted by the United States, Great Britain, and the Soviet Union. Over 50,000 tanks of various modifications were produced, but they all retained the original design. The "Sherman" was operated by two driver mechanics on the main platform, and three crew members in the turret were responsible for its combat power. The main weapon of the "M4" was a 75mm tank gun. In some modifications, it was a mortar or even a flamethrower. Machine guns or automatic cannons were used for close combat. The chassis consisted of three bogies with two rollers each on a spring suspension and leading wheels. Features, advantages The "Sherman" was one of the most reliable tanks of its time.

Excavator "Tireless Digger" Metal Time Steel Kit
Excavator "Tireless Digger" Metal Time Steel Kit Excavators are heavy construction machines consisting of a boom, bucket (or stick), bucket and cab on a rotating platform called a "house" that sits on a chassis with chains or wheels. All movements and functions of a hydraulic excavator are achieved through the use of hydraulic fluid, hydraulic cylinders and hydraulic motors. History of the excavator The invention of mechanisms has always been aimed at making human work easier. Thus, in the era of large-scale construction in the 15th and 16th centuries, an earth-moving machine could not be left out. It was invented by Leonardo da Vinci. But the first excavator did not appear until 500 years later. The conventional boom and shovel machine was invented by William Otis. Technology has come a long way since then, but the form and functionality of excavators have not changed conceptually. It is still the same combination of a crane and a shovel for moving earth. Nowadays, there are many different types of earthmoving machines and their intended use. They perform their tasks on the earth's surface, underground and even under water. Excavators have become one of the most important helpers for people on our planet. The self-assembly model "Tireless Digger" is a continuation of the collection of heavy special equipment in the "Metal Time" kits. The digger is a complex and spectacular machine that deserves its place in the collection of models in your home. That is why our engineers have made it very realistic and functional. After assembly, which is a demanding and interesting process, the excavator model is even capable of digging soft soil like sand. However, this is only possible if the boom and bucket are operated manually. And the "Tireless Digger" moves independently on a crawler chassis with the help of a wind-up mechanism. The reliability of the model's details, the presence of a spring winding mechanism and a variety of parts make assembling this model an interesting task with a consistently beautiful result. Features, advantages The "Tireless Digger" model has most of the usual parts of a real digger. The designers have tried to transfer even the smallest features of the vehicle to the scale model, such as a bucket on the side of the engine compartment. The design allows the boom and bucket components to move in the same plane, and the rotating cab gives them another plane for movement. The realistic tracks move through rotating wheels that are connected to a wind-up mechanism that also has to be assembled by hand. Due to the many details and the complexity of the model and the mechanism, you will need more than an hour to assemble it. However, the result is an amazing model that can be used in a variety of ways - both as a display piece and as a children's toy. "Tireless Digger" will complement your collection of heavy machinery if you already have other "Metal Time" models. Or it will be the start of a new collection of pieces of your technical creativity. The DIY model "Tireless Digger" is intended for anyone interested in the history of the development of design ideas in the creation of heavy machinery and mechanisms. The model can be used as an installation object or for schematic reconstructions of historical facts, e.g. the construction of the Suez Canal or the Three Gorges Power Station. Assembling the "Metal Time" models is a fun activity for the whole family or a group of friends and a challenge for your construction skills. This process can be used as a creative competition or as an anti-stress activity. The "Tireless Digger" model kit is designed for a wide range of users from the age of 14.

Quarry Transporter Mining Truck Metal Time Steel Kit
Quarry Transporter Mining Truck Metal Time Steel Kit Climb aboard the legendary Mining Truck, a true monster for off-highway use. It is specifically designed for use in high production mining and heavy construction environments, including transporting construction equipment or mined ores and minerals. History of the model If we compare the world of cars with the animal world, the dump truck should be represented by the elephant. If we make the comparison between cars and animals, heavy specialised equipment will represent the largest animals on earth. A dump truck can be compared to an elephant. It is just as massive, solid and ready for action. These super vehicles mercilessly crush areas around 250 tonnes in a single trip. Imagine 10 Tesla Model S and 10 Mercedes S600 in the same body! The engines of the dump trucks have a power of 2,700 horsepower, so they can pull a heavy load uphill on a hard, rocky road at any time. The wheel diameter of the dump trucks is over 15 feet. If three sufficiently tall people stand on each other's shoulders, they can barely reach the height of the wheel. Drivers have to climb 18-24 steps to get into the cab. When designing the Quarry Transporter, the Metal Time team took their cue from the features of heavy mining trucks, the largest trucks in the world. Their simple design, functionality and load capacity motivated Metal Time's designers to develop a certain roughness in the vehicle's construction. The Quarry Transporter is certainly a rare vehicle.

Breeze Drifter mechanical Metal Time model Steel constructor kit
Breeze Drifter mechanical Metal Time model Steel constructor kit The Frenchman Alphonse Pénaud filed the first patent for a flying machine with a boat hull and retractable landing gear in 1876, but the Austrian Wilhelm Kress was credited with building the first seaplane, the hang glider, in 1898. History of the aeroplane The idea of crossing a boat and a plane came to people who carefully studied the world around them. As did the idea of aviation in general. Naturally, mankind leaned on the birds. I consider the beginning of the era of flying boats to be the 10s of the 20th century, although the first seaplane took to the skies in 1909. It was developed on the basis of a proprietary engine by the American inventor Curtis. And as early as 1913, the Ukrainian designer Grigorovich tested the M-1 seaplane, which began the era of flying boats. The history of aviation honours the records set by seaplanes: two dead loops on Grigorovich's amphibious plane, the speed record of the Soviet Be-10 at 912 km/h, the largest flying boat in the world created in China already in the 1920s. The designers of "Metal time" could not ignore this important milestone in mankind's desire to fly and presented the modular model "Breeze Drifter". This is a prototype that has the characteristics of a typical propeller-driven seaplane. Of course, it does not float, but it has a spring mechanism that drives the propellers of the "engines". Features, advantages The exciting process of assembling the model leads to an amazing result: you get a beautiful, shiny, filigree model of a seaplane on your desk or in a conspicuous place in the interior, as an object of pride or as an element of a collection. The "Breeze Drifter" model can also be part of a technical game, a furnishing item or a display with other models. "Breeze Drifter" is gymnastics for the mind and hands, a tribute to the world's best engineers and the perfect gift for anyone who loves technology and dreams of flying. The model has a sturdy stand, but it can also be used without it. Like all Metal Time bricks, the Breeze Drifter is made of environmentally friendly stainless steel, which is used in the food industry and approved for the production of consumer goods and toys. The precise cutting of the set eliminates the possibility of cuts during assembly. The parts are precisely matched and do not cause any problems when moving. The pleasant feel, strength and aesthetics of the brushed metal positively distinguish the steel parts from the wooden or plastic parts used by other designers. The "Breeze Drifter" is a great gift for fans of aviation and the history of mechanical engineering. It is an aesthetically positive item that can be a toy for middle-aged children, an interior decoration and an important detail on a desk.

Aircraft Douglas DC-3 Metal Time Steel Construction Kit
Aircraft Douglas DC-3 Metal Time Steel Kit The DC-3 is perhaps unique among pre-war aircraft and is still in active commercial and military service in 2022, eighty-seven years after its first flight in 1935. There are still small operators using DC-3s in commercial service and as cargo aircraft. Current uses of the DC-3 include passenger aircraft, crop duster, cargo aircraft, military aircraft, mission aircraft, parachute shuttle and sightseeing aircraft. History of the aircraft The Douglas "Dakota" DC-3 is the most important commercial aircraft in human history. It has been flying since the end of the 1930s and is still flying 80 years later. This aircraft is the result of a brilliant technical idea realised by talented designers. Wherever this metal winged "dolphin" appeared: in the rainforests of the Amazon, in the snow of Antarctica and in the mountains of the Himalayas. And everywhere the sound of its engines spread hope that cargo would be delivered, people saved and the lost found. The DC-3 has many advantages. It was a landing gear design with a rotating wheel in the tail section, which enabled the aircraft to turn on its own axis in a small space. In addition, the fuselage was pointed upwards, giving the impression that the Dakota would take off even if it was just standing on the ground. This allowed for a short take-off distance. The powerful racks and wheels of the front landing gear withstood landing on any more or less flat surface. This meant that the DC-3 could also be used on short, unpaved runways, making it a versatile aircraft with a wide range of uses, from working farmland to smuggling in the South American jungle. Modifications of the Dakota were also used in military conflicts, where they acted as ambulances, landers, cargo planes and even bombers. The Dakota DC-3 was not only an inspiration to pilots and engineers who built new aircraft based on one of the most reliable designs. It also became the hero of many books and adventure films. Many of the modifications of the legendary monoplane continue to carry cargo and people. The simplicity, reliability and legendary image of this aircraft inspired Metal Time's designers to create the REMARKABLE DOUGLAS assembly model. "REMARKABLE DOUGLAS" is a twin-engine monoplane with a cigar-shaped fuselage, classic tail unit and rear steering wheel landing gear. The buildable model features all the exterior details reminiscent of the legendary Douglas "Dakota" DC-3. This includes above all the characteristic shape of the cockpit, which gives the aircraft the famous "dolphin profile". The square shape of the windows, which has been retained in all modifications of this aircraft, has also been retained. For the modular model "REMARKABLE DOUGLAS", a passenger configuration with windows and a door was chosen. It is worth noting that the prototype model, the Dakota DC-3, was often used as a passenger aircraft. There were even variants of the "luxury" class, which had only 10 seats and a sleeping compartment. The standard version seated an average of 30 passengers. The "Dakota" had two piston engines with a characteristic shape of the blades. This feature has been preserved in the prefabricated model. With the help of a gear system, the rotation of the lift mechanism is transferred to the engines, which ensures the rotation of the propellers for about 30 seconds. The model of the REMARKABLE DOUGLAS stands on a stable exhibition platform. It contains a lift mechanism driven by a spring. The model can be separated from the platform and placed on the chassis. You can also simulate the "flight" of the model by suspending it from a fishing line or polymer thread (not included). When disconnected from the central mechanism, the screws can only be moved by turning them by hand. The "REMARKABLE DOUGLAS" wings have openings that make the model lighter and allow a view of the internal structure and moving mechanisms. Features, advantages Like all Metal Time prefabricated construction kits, the REMARKABLE DOUGLAS model is made of sustainable stainless steel, which is used in the food industry and is approved for use in the manufacture of consumer products and toys. Assembling "REMARKABLE DOUGLAS" is an activity for people who are passionate about creating. The model consists of one and a half hundred parts and belongs to the medium complexity designers. Assembling it can be a great leisure activity for the whole family or a friendly flash mob. The result will be another piece in your collection of "Metal Time" models. For Metal Time, the REMARKABLE DOUGLAS model is a continuation and further development of the "Aviation" direction, in which several excellent self-assembly kits have already been created. The precise cutting of the kit eliminates the possibility of cuts during assembly. The pleasant feel of the steel parts pleasantly distinguishes them from the wooden or plastic parts used by other designers. The practical flat packaging made of environmentally friendly, recyclable cardboard combines compactness and the aesthetics of a status gift. The buildable model is designed for a wide range of users from the age of 14. Fans of aeronautical engineering and stories about long-haul travel are sure to love REMARKABLE DOUGLAS. Its recognisable outline immediately brings to mind many stories heard or seen in films or TV shows. But in addition to the romantic and adventurous stories with a touch of military heroism and crime, "REMARKABLE DOUGLAS" carries in its design almost a century of aviation history and the development of technology in one of the most complex industries. Therefore, the presence of such a model in the interior says a lot about the owner. For example, about his good taste, his fondness for interesting heroic stories and reliable and beautiful technology. And also that he knows how to work successfully with his hands. The assembled model can serve as an interior decoration, part of a collection in a display case, a key figure in an aviation-themed installation or an airfield installation. You can also use "REMARKABLE DOUGLAS" as a decoration for staged photos on the themes of travel, geographical discoveries, adventurous stories. The study and assembly of the model develop the skills of technical creativity, promote the study of the history of science, technology and world culture. Each of our models is marked with a unique serial number, making them collectible and interchangeable.

Boeing 314 Clipper Metal Time Steel Constructor Kit
Boeing 314 Clipper Metal Time Steel Constructor Kit The Boeing 314 Clipper was an American long-range flying boat manufactured by Boeing from 1938 to 1941. It was one of the largest aircraft of its time and had the range to cross the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The 314's first flight on the San Francisco-Hong Kong route departed Alameda on February 23, 1939, and regular passenger and foreign mail service began on March 29 on Route #14. A one-way flight on this route took over six days. History of the aircraft Flights across the Atlantic were a feat of strength for pilots and passengers, although they were fairly frequent and regular during the first half of the 20th century. The journey often took most of the day, the machines were not credible, and weather conditions caused stress every minute. And suddenly an aircraft appeared that could offer passengers unprecedented comfort and safety. Even in the event of an unforeseen landing at sea, it guaranteed the survival of everyone on board. The secret is that it was a Boeing 314 Yankee Clipper seaplane. It was like one of the floors of a luxury hotel. Pull-out chairs, a restaurant with china dishes and silverware, first-class service. In such a plane, James Bond could order his favourite cocktail without getting up and drink it from a crystal glass. The seaplane's design and resource reserves allowed it to stay in the air for up to a day without refuelling, and in the event of a malfunction, to land on the water and continue on its way as a large boat. The Second World War changed the way these aircraft worked and the luxury of flying became a thing of the past. As a tribute to this creation of American engineers, the team at Metal Time has developed the Splashing Dreamer kit based on the design of this glorious seaplane. Every aircraft model has its own legend. Why did the designers choose this particular design, to make it in stainless steel, to add moving parts and a feather, and to add colour accents? Splashing Dreamer is the story of the famous seaplane. This was not only luxurious, but also an outstanding technical solution of its time, and many of its technical features are also used in modern aircraft. The Splashing Dreamer is a four-engine, single-engine seaplane with a distinctive tail fin geometry. To emphasise the status of this aircraft, the Metal Time team used coloured stainless steel parts in the construction of the model. The fairings on the engine cases, the floats and the tail stabilisers are finished in copper-gold colour. The aircraft's cabin door is also marked with this colour. Features, advantages The body of the seaplane is on a stable stand, which also contains a wind-up mechanism with spring and key. With the help of gears, the movement is transferred from it to the screws of the motors. However, the model can easily be separated from the stand, for example for playing or for use as part of a model or layout. As the screws are not connected to the central mechanism, they can only be moved by turning them by hand. You can have "air battles" with models by holding them in your hands. You can put together an airfield layout. You can even simulate the "landing" of a seaplane on the water, but you must understand that the "Splashing Dreamer" will not stay on the surface of the water, as the model has many technical and decorative holes. However, immersion in water does not pose any danger to the model and its mechanisms as they are made of stainless steel. The hull of the seaplane is decorated with ornaments imitating waves and currents of water and air, carved out of metal. This not only has an aesthetic function, but also makes the model easier to handle. Like all Metal Time prefabricated kits, the Splashing Dreamer model is made of environmentally friendly stainless steel, which is used in the food industry and approved for the production of consumer goods and toys. Assembling the Splashing Dreamer is no easy task. This is mainly due to the complex system of gears that transmit the movement of the spring to the screws of the motors. You will need to use a lot of ingenuity to get the mechanisms to operate correctly. Assembling the model can be a great leisure activity for the whole family. As a result, your desk or other furnishing element will be adorned with a model with a special story and character. For Metal Time, the Splashing Dreamer model is a continuation and further development of the "aviation" direction, in which several outstanding kits for self-assembly have already been created. It is the first time that a model of an aircraft has been made of non-ferrous metal. The precise cutting of the model eliminates the possibility of cuts during assembly. The pleasant feel of the steel parts makes them pleasantly different from wooden or plastic parts used in other constructions. The practical flat packaging made of environmentally friendly, recyclable cardboard combines compactness and the aesthetics of a status gift. Specifications Quantity of parts, piece: 124 Level of difficulty, from 1 to 8: 4 Hours for assembly (average): 8 Model size (cm): 20.5 x 29 x 10.5 Model size (inches): 8.07 x 11.42 x 4.14 Pack size: L Winding mechanism Rotating propeller Transparent housing Double colour Removable base
Ship Guardian of the Coasts Metal Time Kit
Ship Guardian of the Coasts Metal Time Kit A coastguard is an organisation responsible for maritime security in a particular country. Among the duties that may be entrusted to a Coast Guard are: Search and rescue, enforcement of maritime law, security of vessels, maintenance of navigation marks and border control. History of the model The old CG-47305 was cruising through the turquoise waters of Bodega Bay to conduct another patrol of the Marine Protected Areas when the radar detected an object moving at high speed. Of course, it could be San Francisco's "golden" youth going all out in a speedboat, or it could be poachers. And the team decided to check out the vessel, because that is the Coast Guard's job. The patrol's engine howled and quickly picked up speed. Despite its age, it could still keep up with glamorous motorboats. Besides, the crew knew these waters like the back of their hands. The chase was short and ended unexpectedly: automatic fire was heard from the side of the boat. The bullets did not even scratch the armoured side of the patrol boat, but it became clear to everyone: the case was taking a criminal turn. The crew commander notified the police and decided to continue the pursuit. The patrol boat pushed the intruders' boat closer and closer to the shore. The criminals tried to hide, but there is no place for it in the sea. Then, when a police helicopter appeared in the sky and two ranger boats from the nature reserve approached from the coast, the fugitives had to cut their engines. So CG-47305 seized a large load of drugs. And the Coast Guard command decided to technically retrofit more than 100 boats, which have a lifespan of almost 25 years. The US Coast Guard has many missions: It patrols off the coast, rescues people in distress, prevents crime and illegal fishing, protects closed areas and state borders. The patrol fleet is diverse: from small boats to frigates, and each has its own task. Metal Time's engineers chose a standard 47-foot (14.3 m) boat, most commonly used in the coastal waters of the United States, to design the Guardian of the Coasts. These vessels were produced in the early 90s of the XX century, and in 2017 it was decided to modernise their fleet and extend their service life by another 20 years. So the Guardian of the Coasts model is based on a real prototype. It has been designed with great attention to detail. The deckhouse with an overview of the controls, radio antennas, stairs, handrails and other structural elements of the boat are faithfully reproduced. As always, "Metal time" presents an original and beautiful finished model of the "Guardian of the Coasts" that will win the hearts of all who are not indifferent to seafaring. Features, advantages The Guardian of the Coasts is powered by an electric motor that drives the ship's radar. The hull is supported by the demonstration platform. Thanks to it, the model can be placed on any horizontal surface as an interior decoration, as an exhibit of a collection or as an element of an installation. The assembly of this model is a challenge for lovers of manual work and serves as an excellent development of metalworking skills and technical creativity. Like all of Metal Time's models, Guardian of the Coasts is made of sustainable, food-grade stainless steel that is approved for consumer products and toys. The precise cutting of the set eliminates the possibility of cuts during assembly. The parts fit together precisely and cause no problems during assembly. Pleasant feel, durability and the aesthetics of the matt metal distinguish the steel parts from the wooden or plastic parts used in other constructions. The practical flat packaging made of sustainable, recyclable cardboard combines compactness and the aesthetics of a status gift. Every buyer of the "Metal Time" model receives a club badge, a thank-you card and a unique number assigned to each model.
