Star Decals 35-C1420 M29C Weasel - E.P.F. Les Expeditions Polaires Francaises. French Polar Expeditions in the 1940-60s 1/35

The Star Decals 35-C1420 M29C Weasel - E.P.F. 1/35 decal set is a unique offering for historical modelers focusing on unusual subjects. This set is dedicated to the reconstruction of the famous M29C Weasel tracked vehicles used by the French Polar Expeditions (Expeditions Polaires Francaises, E.P.F.) in the harsh conditions of the Arctic and Antarctica between 1940 and 1960. The decals allow for a faithful reproduction of rarely presented paint schemes used during scientific and research expeditions in the postwar period, covering the end of World War II as well as the Cold War era.

The French began to intensively use the American M29C Weasel in polar regions due to its durability and ability to move on snow and ice. These vehicles were adapted for carrying equipment, crew, and scientific materials in extreme climatic conditions and played an important role in several famous expeditions, including to Spitsbergen, Greenland, and Antarctica. The decals enable the preparation of models that reflect the realities of polar expeditions and feature distinctive E.P.F. emblems, registration markings, and the inscription "Expeditions Polaires Francaises."
