The one of mine is from DeAgostini which I've bought from eBay only for $9.99 (that's the beauty of eBay) <g>
This is the pictures from eBay. Once I've taken my picture, I will add it to this pages.
Here are a litle about Tpz-1 Fuchs
TPz (Transportpanzer) Fuchs (fox) is an armored personnel carrier developed by Daimler-Benz and built by Thyssen-Henschel (now Rheinmetall Landsysteme) in 1979. It was the second wheeled armored vehicle to be fielded in the Bundeswehr. It is used for various different tasks including troop-transport, engineer-transport, bomb disposal, NBC (Nuclear, Biological and Chemical) reconnaissance and electronic warfare. By mixing and matching the different models and retrofit kits, today more than 90 different combinations are possible, 32 of which have been produced to date. The TPz Fuchs is thus also referred to as a "retrofit platform".
The vehicles engine is a Mercedes-Benz Model OM 402A V-8 liquid-cooled diesel with an output of 320 hp. It has a max speed of 105 km/h and a range of 800 km. Fuchs is 7.33 m long, 2.98 m wide and 2.37 m high. It weighs 18.3 tons with the capability to carry additional 6 tons in equipment. The 6x6 APC is characterized by high performance over all terrains and low noise. Its rear-mounted propellers and 360° turning range, enable the vehicle to take water obstacles in its stride at up to 10km/h.
The vehicle's ability to withstand high-performance, armor-piercing ammunition fired not only from small arms but also from lightweight carriage-mounted machineguns, as well as shrapnel, and to augment its protection against anti-personnel and anti-tank mines had to be improved. Due to the weight and volume restrictions, they had to use advanced armor materials to meet the protection specifications. Compared to equally effective steel or aluminum alloy armor, modern armor materials enable weight savings of 50% or more. The modular armor protection system used in the TPz Fuchs encompasses six harmonized, complementary elements which in part operate in coordinated fashion
Here are some Tpz-1 Fuchs armor list on eBay (this is hard to find diecast, if you're lucky, there will be on the list)
