They do not contain paints and glues unless otherwise stated.\u003cbr\u003eDescription\u003cbr\u003eThe unregulated growth and oversaturation of the United States market led to the Great Depression, beginning with the October 1929 stock market crash. This economic crisis fuelled a rise in banditry, with bank robberies becoming particularly notorious. These crimes were made more effective by gangsters' use of automobiles. As one analyst observed in the 1920s: \"Cars and good roads have dramatically increased certain types of crime. We now see a new kind of automobile bandit who relies entirely on a car—whether robbing banks, breaking into homes, or mugging pedestrians.\" The criminals' success was further enhanced by Thompson submachine guns, which boasted rapid-fire capability and earned the nickname \"Tommy gun.\" Notably, these weapons cost around 200 dollars—about half the price of a Ford Model A automobile.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eKey Features\u003cbr\u003eFord Model A Gangster Vehicle\u003cbr\u003eIncludes Thompson submachine guns (commonly known as Tommy guns), M1911 pistols, and money bags\u003cbr\u003eThe kit features decals that simulate bullet holes on both the car body and windscreen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eModel Information\u003cbr\u003eScale: 1:24\u003cbr\u003eNumber of Parts: 203 + 16 pieces (219 total)\u003cbr\u003eLength: 160 mm\u003cbr\u003eWidth: 75 mm\u003cbr\u003eIncludes detailed assembly instructions\u003cbr\u003eHighly detailed sprues with high accuracy made from quality plastic\u003cbr\u003eBox size: 295 x 225 x 40 mm\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"ICM","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57891082535293,"sku":"ICM24052","price":38.25,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0353\/6604\/3780\/files\/ojusjk0yfk5.jpg?v=1772549895","url":"https:\/\/fieldsofglorymodels.co.uk\/products\/icm-cars-124-ford-model-a-gangster-car","provider":"Fields of Glory Models","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
