Takom Plastic Model Kit
1/4 Ton Utility Truck & Utility Trailer (1/16)
This 1/16 scale 1/4 Ton Utility Truck and Utility Trailer set from Takom recreates one of the most recognisable light vehicles of WWII. Compact, reliable, and endlessly adaptable, the Jeep became the backbone of Allied mobility, serving in everything from reconnaissance and command roles to supply and casualty evacuation.
The kit includes both the Jeep and matching utility trailer, along with photo etched and clear parts for added refinement. Workable wheels are fitted, with freely positionable front steering, and builders can choose to assemble both vehicles with or without canvas covers. Windscreen options are provided in open or covered configurations, and a driver figure is included to bring the finished model to life.

The 1/4 ton truck became an indispensable part of Allied operations, valued for its simplicity, toughness, and ability to go almost anywhere. From European hedgerows to dusty supply routes, it proved itself time and again as a true workhorse of the war. Takom’s large scale kit offers plenty of opportunity for weathering and detailing, making it a strong centrepiece for any WWII vehicle collection.
