Isn't it amazing how much that Dong Feng thingy looks like a Humvee?

French EBR-10 - I have only seen pictures of them before and think they are French AFV. Besides that I know nothing at all about them -?

So why do I want one ! I think Hobbyboss must be really applauded here - the thing just looks cool !

Im sure our friend Olivier will be here soon to share his knowledge

Either those are really, really tiny soldiers, or that ZBD-05 is one massive 'phib.

It is a pretty big vehicle, take a look at these troops on and around it during a parade work-up:



I'm looking forward to its release, as well as the Dong Feng!
