Tippco German Army Half-Track – SdKfz 7 *SOLD*
Tips German Army half track – SdKfz 7 for sale
This was a completely foreign toy at first to us, knowing the design, but not knowing the style of manufacturing. TippCo has always been a lesser-imported toy company for the U.S. Here, we knew it as a German half track windup toy.
In Actuality it is a – SdKfz 7 and a German transport toy from pre World War 2 and a quality tin windup. The key shown is aftermarket, but it powers the clockwork mechanism perfectly. The toy scoots across the floor with two rubber wheels and chain driver perfectly. It is a very long lasting windup and made with metal and chains.
Our toy condition is very good to excellent. There is a scuff on the front hood as shown. The two rubber wheels have small flat spots from being stored. The chains are in excellent condition as is the overall paint job. Two of the figures appear original and two may be reproduction. It is a challenge to tell.
We really enjoyed reviewing and playing with this toy. We have a Youtube video on this TippCo half track and find it to be a very solidly made toy of a heavy gauge and likely a hand painted camouflage scheme. Soldiers were painstakingly detailed and it exudes quality.
