During the short collaboration between WSI and Tonkin Replicas - leading to IMC - the Tonkin Replicas Europe subsidiary produced some excellent 1/50 models (including the 8x8 Nicolas Tractomas).

An US model of the same period:







Peterbilt 587 6x4/2 tractor (Tonkin Replicas model) and East Manufacturing Corp. BST 48 2-axle flatbed semi-trailer (modified Sword model), loaded with 5 Rensco 28" XS gas pipe lengths of 22.98 tonnes (modified Corgi load),
