Restock: WC54 Ambulance

2173Action-Webcard-710

About the WC54 Ambulance:

Deployed primarily during World War II and the Korean War, the WC54 Ambulance served as the primary transport vehicle for battlefield causalities. Although produced by American factories, the WC54 was deployed worldwide through the Lend-Lease Act and enjoyed popularity among Allied forces. It later served M.A.S.H. units during the Korean War. The WC54 would continue to see use through the 1960’s.

Although it was designated as an ambulance, few soldiers were ever treated inside the vehicle. Soldiers were often treated before they entered the vehicle or later at a battlefield hospital, depending on the severity of their injuries. The WC54 was marked as a medical vehicle under the Geneva Convention with a large red cross and a white background. These markings were designed to prevent the ambulance from taking enemy fire under international law, however, this didn’t always work as intended as the WC54 was a front-line vehicle.

2161-Action-Webcard-710

About the F6F Hellcat:

The F6F Hellcat was the successor to the F4F Wildcat series of carrier aircraft used by the United States Navy in the Pacific Theater of WWII. The intention of this aircraft was to counter the Japanese Mitsubishi A6M Zero. Hellcats are credited with destroying a total of 5,223 enemy aircraft while in service.

During the Battle of the Philippine Sea, Navy fighter pilots shot down nearly 300 enemy aircraft in one day. The Hellcat produced more fighter aces than any other aircraft during WWII. The Hellcat proved invaluable as the US Navy conducted its operations across the Pacific Ocean. It is often noted that the appearance of the Hellcat had a significant impact in turning the tide to war in favor of American forces.

Restock: Korean War US Army MASH Doctor

307-Action-Webcard-710

As the need for doctors grew in Korea, the Army turned to civilian draftees to fill the M.A.S.H. units across the peninsula. The use of medevac helicopters such as the H-13 Sioux assured a continuous stream of causalities from the front. These doctors often worked long and irregular hours, sometimes under the threat of enemy fire. Alongside the Army nurses, their tireless work contributed to a drastic cut in death rates among wounded soldiers.

The Korean War US Army M.A.S.H. Doctor features artwork based on the US Army MASH Uniform, M-1948 Russet Combat Boots, Identification Tags, Rieger-Bowles Binaural Combination Stethoscope, and comes with a martini glass for an after-hours drink.

This Korean War US Army MASH Doctor features exclusive custom-printed artwork designed by Lando.

New Release: Vostok 1 – With R-7 Rocket

5006-Action-Webcard-710.jpg

About the Vostok 1 – With R-7 Rocket:

The post-World War II era saw the advancement of rocket technology based on German research during the war. Several countries set out to design rockets as Intercontinental Ballistic Missiles (ICBM) to deliver weapons of mass destruction. The Soviet Union deployed the R-7 series as their primary ICBM, but they later used the rocket for a different purpose: space travel. In 1961, the Vostok 1 capsule delivered by the R-7 rocket enabled Yuri Gagarin to be the first person to successfully orbit the Earth and return safely. Roughly 60 short years after Kitty Hawk and the first flight, human beings travelled into space. Anyone living during this time could have very well seen both the first airplanes and the first person in space.

Specifications:

  • Capsule weight: 2.4 tons (2177 kg)
  • Orbit time: 108 minutes
  • Maximum height: 203 mi (326 km)
  • Maximum speed: 17,500 mph (28,163 km/h)
