Tales of Transparency: Holiday Shipping Deadlines

The tempo of operations here at The Motor Pool has certainly picked up in recent weeks, with new merchandise flooding in at a record pace and outbound orders noticeably increasing well before the holidays arrive. That said, we just wanted to remind everyone about the shipping deadlines we’ve instituted for both domestic and international shipments that are intended for holiday delivery. Please make sure to check out our Calendar of Events page to determine the dates and service method that best suits your needs and remember it pays to place your order as early as possibly to avoid disappointment.

Odeon Tries its Hand at Navigating the Field of Battle

Admittedly, we’ve never heard of Odeon, who, as it turns out, is a prolific maker of scale diecast automobiles that has cultivated a rather devoted following across Europe. Apparently, they too want to try their hand at military modeling, by offering up a pair of 1:43 scale WWII-era M4 Sherman tanks.

Currently, we’re not sure if anyone here in North America will be stocking the line or has any information concerning further releases beyond these two introductory vehicles. So, for now, we’ll post what we know right here and keep our fingers crossed that they are looking towards building out the category and hopefully inking a deal with one of our principal suppliers to carry their line of diecast military vehicles.

By the way, a special shout out goes to Achilletalon, a member of the Model Hanger III forum, for bringing these vehicles to everyone’s attention.
