U.S. WWII universal Trailer Mk. 2 Scale 1:48 Metallic Details MDR4831

Metallic Details MDR4831 Resin Set builds a U.S. universal trailer Mk.2 in 1/48 for diorama and support-vehicle scenes. The set includes 24 resin parts (2×12) to assemble two trailers, which is useful when you want matched ground equipment for a paired aircraft/vehicle display.

A small trailer can add scale cues and “working area” context around an aircraft stand, parking scene, or service vignette without needing a full vehicle. This item is intended as a universal diorama accessory, so exact placement and finishing are scene-dependent.

For modelers: wash resin parts before assembly, then dry-fit the frame and axle so both trailers sit level. Use a simple flat jig or glass plate while glue cures; add weathering after a matte coat so dust and wear stay controlled at 1/48 scale.

FAQ

How many trailers can I build from this set?

The description states 24 resin parts (2×12) for building two trailers.

Do I need special preparation for resin parts?

Wash parts to remove any residue, then lightly sand mating faces for a clean fit. Dry-fit the frame so the trailer sits level before glue cures.

What’s a simple way to keep both trailers straight during assembly?

Assemble on a flat surface (glass, tile, or a small jig) and check wheel alignment from the front and side before the adhesive sets.
