P840 Type 42 Destroyer - Batch 1 - HMS Cardiff - Limited edition! D108This limited edition ship is in mint condition, but unboxed.
The querk is that on the underside it does say HMS Glasgow, when in fact it is Cardiff. The flightdeck is wrong too but this is how they were made and is the only version of Cardiff ever made by Triang.
I have very few of these for sale, and also the reciprocal ships with the wrong name on the underside, HMS Newcastle and HMS Glasgow. In the limited edition this was a production error but Triang were unable to re-release the ships with correct pennant and casting.
Length 4.0 inches and 100mm

Here is a model of S117 HMS Tireless of the Trafalgar Class from the Limited Edition issue by Tri-ang Minic Ships. One of 4 models made. It is mint and unboxed. Length 2.75 inches or 70mm The submarine number on the conning tower says S117 although the real boats had no numbers painted and Tireless was S88 The correct name is diecast underneath. Tri-ang code N792 and or P785 Trafalgar Class SSN -Originally designed for Cold War operations in the Mediterranean and North Atlantic the Trafalgar Class was a follow on from the Swiftsure Class but both faster and quieter. The principle role of these "hunter-killer" vessels is to attack ships, other submarines and support a convoy or taskforce. The Trafalgar Class are fitted with cameras and thermal imaging systems that allow them to be used in a surveillance role. 5200 tons length 85 metres. -
Here are is a model of S118 HMS Torbay of the Trafalgar Class from the Limited Edition issue by Tri-ang Minic Ships. One of 4 models made. It is mint and unboxed. Length 2.75 inches or 70mm The submarine number on the conning tower says S118 The correct name Torbay is diecast underneath. It should of course say S90 on the conning tower although numbers are not put on conning towers. Hmm Tri-ang code N793 and or P785 Trafalgar Class SSN - Originally designed for Cold War operations in the Mediterranean and North Atlantic the Trafalgar Class design was a follow on from the successful Swiftsure Class but incorporated many improvements making them both faster and quieter. The hull of is covered by anechoic tiles to absorb sonar signals and noise reduction is achieved through the pump jet propulsion system which is a multi blade rotor turned by a jet of water that is quieter than a conventional propeller. The lead ship HMS Trafalgar was completed in 1983 before the pump jet propulsion system was ready and has a seven bladed propeller instead. Like previous British nuclear submarines the Trafalgar Class boats have a "teardrop hull", the fin has been strengthened and the hydroplanes can be retracted to allow the submarine to surface through ice. The principle role of these "hunter-killer" vessels is to attack ships and other submarines and in this capacity they could support and protect a convoy or taskforce. With the fitting of the Tomahawk cruise missile system they will also be capable of a land attack role. The Trafalgar Class are fitted with cameras and thermal imaging systems that allow them to be used in a surveillance role. 5200 tons length 85 metres. . -
