PhiMa’s Universal Carrier transports Allied troops in relative safety

The Universal Carrier or “Bren Gun Carrier” is one of the most under-appreciated vehicles of the Second World War. Despite over 100,000 being produced, it’s frequently overshadowed by larger, more iconic tracked vehicles like the Sherman tank.

PhiMa remedies this situation with his lovely little LEGO version of this armored World War II vehicle.

PhiMa’s Deuce and a Half (M35 2 1/2-ton Cargo Truck) also has a nice heft to it, reusing canopies from LEGO Indiana Jones sets:

  1. I love the Red Berets on the guys in the Bren Carrier. Where do they come from?

  2. @Damien – They are a Brickforge piece, available in several colors. They are pretty cool, huh?

  3. I should get some of those…
