@modeldadeeee I've never seen that version before.   Franklin Mint's 1/8 1886 Mercedes (the first Mercedes ) still holds the title as the consummate replica.  Norev produces a 1/18 version, but not as detailed.

...part of the 3-piece FM 1/8 collection which I assume you have - or at least reviewed.   I should find a few 1/8 scale figures.   For my 1/6 FM 1896 Ford Quadricycle I crafted a 1/6 Henry Ford to match a classic photograph.

Love all the late nineteenth century vehicles. Not common or easy to find but an important part of our heritage.
