Just received this, thought it might go nicely with 1/144 (if I squint), and I have to say... IT'S AMAZING!!! So detailed! Thought that my Armour 1/48 was good (no complaints) - this is actually more accurate! I'll post pictures when I take em (sun's gone down now and I like natural light). :D

Not too badly does it go - sharing the desk with my first ever AA. Props spin 'n all. :D

Aww, man, I forgot the pics come up as thumbnails now :mad:

In addition, the wheels spin (noticed one was a bit wonky on the picture and checked), and is precise in every detail.

I'll probably take some more pics tomorrow in the sunlight, was there anything in particular you wanted to know/see?

not really, I was just interested in the general quality as they looked quite good in the catalogue pictures.. are they all plastic?

Hmmm, that is something I was wondering myself... It obviously isn't solid diecast metal (hollow cabin + windows), but I would hesitate to call it plastic, though it may well be. :confused:

I would happily buy all of these (there are 10 I think), they are really that good - (even the Coca-cola one http://www.savingadvice.com/forums/images/smilies/puke/vomit-smiley-007.gif )

All I could do was shake my head in disbelief when I saw the coca-cola one in particular! At least the Milka one was an actual livery! I'd get 'em, but they wouldn't approach my desk for more than the proverbial tenner!
