Thanks! I was looking forward to this set too till I saw it was being delayed up to 7 weeks, and I couldn't wait any longer!

I have NWM's Michelin XTZ wheels, but the tread looks way oversized, might stick with the Blast Model copy.

Great looking Guardian Lucas...but is the spot-light in the wrong place? I thought it was fixed to the .50 cal barrel?

Good luck with the TUA Ian, mine is in the post due to land within next few days and the work-bench (kitchen table) is cleared of last project Centauro

Thanks! And yes, you are correct! For some reason I saw the LRAD mast and it fit so that's where it went lol. D'oh, thankfully I was able to move it before I started painting.

Since then I've finished, hopefully some pics up here and in the gallery before the end of the day, we'll see.

Sal, Look forward to seeing the progress. Nothing like a little extra storage especially if it just left overs from other kits.

Putting together this kit was a lot of fun, and I can't wait to do the 1200 and a 3-tone. Kinda upset I'm done already...




Good luck to the others!

Lucas,

Looks really good. You can always complete another. You get only one ribbon though.

Huypham,

LAV 25 will work for the campaign. Welcome! Make sure you go to the Campaign tab and enlist. The requirements of the campaign are listed there. Look forward to seeing your progress on the kit.

Have fun,
Tony

Seems like a great campaign to enter the M8 greyhound I just bought! This should be fun.

Brandon, Welcome to the campaign.

Ian, Cool looking kit. Who makes it? Trumpter? Did you add beyond the box?
