The Company

   

Fleetline Model Company had evidently been absorbed by Gem, and Gem was handled exclusively by Lytchett Manor Models in England. They offered a healthy assortment of soft metal detail castings, although illness has brought a halt to production for the time being.

The Figures

These unpainted cast metal figures and kits are typical of those offered by countless British cottage industries. Photos from old eBay auctions.

Where to Buy

Until recently, Fleetline/Gem products were available directly from Lytchett Manor Models; now it appears eBay is the only option.
