with a Willys MB jeep, they made for a lot of fun as kids when used in
wargame type landing scenarios.
Aurora had one also in their "Anzio Beach" diorama set from the late 1960's.

Yeah, but I seem to recall those were more towards the "toy" side of
things and not the "scale" side...

You did get a lot of tanks and troops with the kit at a very low price, which made it very usable for wargaming.
Lots cheaper than buying Roco Minitanks, much less Airfix ones.
