This is a model from the First  series of Triang Minic ships which were made between 1958 and 1964 HMS Swiftsure cruiser in blue, some of the photos look a little grey to me but this is a blue model. With a very good box In good condition, there is a black paint mark underneath. She is 6 inches long or 140mm. Minic code M 761 My ref W253 This is the Tri-ang Minic Ships model of HMS Swiftsure one of a proposed class of eight Light Cruisers, known as the Minotaur Class, which were ordered under the 1941 and 1942 Warship Construction Programmes. The design was modified after the first two ships, HMS Swifture and HMS Minotaur, were laid down in 1941 as a result of which these two ships became known as the "Group 1" ships. The "Group 2" ships, sometimes referred to as the Superb Class, included HMS Superb of which Tri-ang Minic Ships also produced a model. The models of HMS Swiftsure and HMS Superb were identical distinguished only by the model number and name marked on the underside.
