MiniArt
Ltd. is a Ukraine
company that began to establish a presence in 2005 with a line of injection molded
building and diorama sets, as well as an eclectic assortment of Soviet, German,
and British AFVs and figure sets. The U.S. component has remained limited but
interesting: The Bantam jeep, which was relegated to a minor early war role as
it was eclipsed by the Willys and Ford jeeps, and the 2010 release of the Harley
Davidson WLA motorcycle. The Bantam jeep crew is offered seperately; the seated
figures need some work to be used with the Tamiya jeep (and likely for the Italeri
as well). Figures
