TRIANG MINIC DARING CLASS DESTROYER HMS DARING
The miniature diecast warship dates from 1960 and is mint out of box. These little ships were never individually boxed but were shipped in battery boxes. It is marked on the base;Tri-ang Minic Made in England pats. pen. M772 H.M.S. Diana and the Minic logo. * Some years ago when I had a shop I purchased some new old stock Minic ships, some in individual boxes and some in “battery” boxes. I will be listing them on eBay in the near future. These models were made by Tri-Ang between 1958 and 1964 but were not popular due to the fact that they had no wheels. In 1976 they were re introduced out of Hong Kong and given wheels in order to compete with Matchbox, Dinky etc. They died again in 1980 and apparently they are being introduced again in England from original moulds and the little plastic masts and other bits are available. They have a website which is easy to find. The models are 1-1200 scale and were marketed as “waterline models”. The series included docks, lighthouses, quays and tanker berths etc. The wonderful book “British Diecast Model Toys Catalogue” by John Ramsay, ISBN-9509319-8-5 (I have the 7th edition dated 1995) gives a list of the models and prices. These models are guaranteed original from the period and I have shown a photo of my original boxes which are not for sale at present. . The masts come separately packed in small cellophane envelopes; a photo of one is shown here.
