About product

The transport case for the M60 machine gun in 1:35 scale (Eureka XXL)

A diorama accessory from Eureka XXL in 1:35 scale. It is not a vehicle model or a kit but a scale reproduction of a tough Pelican transport case of the kind in which the M60 machine gun is moved. The accessory suits an armory, the bed of a vehicle, an issue table or the ground beside figures, where such cases usually stand stacked up.

The real subject

Pelican transport cases are shell-type boxes of tough plastic with a perimeter seal, folding latches and handles. The weapon versions have a shaped inner insert, so that the weapon does not move in the case and is not damaged in transit. The M60 is an American 7.62 mm general-purpose machine gun introduced in the 1950s, which served as infantry support as well as armament for vehicles and helicopters and stayed in service for a very long time in a number of countries. In a modeling scene it can therefore be used with Cold War vehicles as well as with more recent subjects.

Usage and painting tips

Separate the parts carefully, clean up the mating faces and wash and degrease them before painting. A thin primer, the base shade from an airbrush and the details finished with a brush prove their worth. Bring the latches, hinges and handles out with gentle dry-brushing and suggest the label on the lid with a decal or a fine brush. Knock the surface back with a flat varnish. Seat the case in the scene so that it sits flat across its whole face, or turn it slightly and add other equipment beside it, so that a natural still life comes about.

Who the accessory is for

  • Builders of dioramas in 1:35 scale from the Cold War period and the present day
  • Modelers who add kit and loads to their vehicles
  • Anyone interested in armories and issue scenes
  • Anyone who wants a small, clearly readable detail for a display case

The accessory is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and figures are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

According to the name this is a transport case for that weapon. The contents of the package are stated on the box.

It is not. It is a diorama accessory in 1:35 scale, that is, a separate object for a scene. The base model and figures are not included.

The M60 machine gun was introduced in the 1950s and served for decades, so the case can be used for Cold War scenes as well as more recent ones.

Spray a muted flat shade, bring the latches and edges out with dry-brushing and finish by adding a fine dusting of pigments at the base.
