| M48 Patton Tank |
"An American Classic is available once again! This Tim Mee #729 M48
Patton Tank was manufactured in the last days of the great American toy
company, Processed Plastic (Tim Mee's parent company). The tank features a
turret that rotates, measures 6.5 inches long and is approximately 1:48
scale. Made from slightly stiff tan color HDPE plastic with medium
detail and very little flashing. The first version of this vehicle was
produced in 1964 and modeled after the M48A2 Patton tank. It was
modified several times over the decades until the final version seen
here. This may the most popular and most widely copied toy tank of all
time. This vehicle has been safely stored in a sealed factory box since
the factory closed their doors, and has been inspected, individually
bagged, and sealed for return to the marketplace. This is real toy,
meant to be set up, knocked over, picked up and played with for years to
come. Recommended for ages 5 to 105!"
The following vehicles will be available in limited quantities:
• 729 Patton tank (green and tan)• 719 Scout vehicle (green and tan)
• 739 Willy's Jeep (green)
Hopefully sales will be brisk and therefore convince J. Lloyd International to reissue the Patton tank...along with a few other classic TimMee army vehicles.
