Historical Context & Theme
The 1/16 ’40 – French Tanker No.1 captures the courage and determination of the French armored forces during the Battle of France in 1940 — one of the defining moments of early World War II.
French tank crews, operating vehicles such as the Somua S35, Renault R35, and Hotchkiss H35, faced the formidable German Blitzkrieg with professionalism and resolve.
This figure represents one of those crewmen — calm yet resolute, embodying the human side of France’s early-war defense and the evolution of armored warfare in Europe.
