The version in the photos has three (really) seats and is a metal model. Sadly I have no recollection of which company made them and I've never seen it again.
Much of the delay in finishing was caused by painting suitable officer figures to accompany the cars, as I see them being used as division or even army level command elements. Despite only needing three officer figures I (predictably) ended up painting enough infantry for an entire division. But more of that later.
So here then are the three very different officers and their cars.
Perhaps readers would like to name their favourite? I'm going with Officer 2.

| Officer 1 - in control and reflective |

| Officer 2 - in control and dynamic |

| Officer 3 - out of control and mental |

Looks really good!

Thanks - it's an odd little car, but evidently quite useful.
I'll go with Car No 1. No 2 looks like he's talking to his car which leads to questions.
Nice cars and commanders!
Yeah, nice little models, I too prefer the second option
Thats not a car Tim, thats a buggy! Interesting stuff as per usual.

Talking to his car? You say that as if it's odd behaviour...

Good choice. He's definitely the coolest dude in my Jap boxes.

I think car number 3 has a flat tire ;-)
Great painted cars and minis!
Great blog Tim ;-)

Welcome - I think the flat tyre may explain Officer 3's mood!

Thanks Rich - another vote for the cool Officer 2. Even if he does talk to his car.
