Thanks!

I like the guy carrying the petrol tank whilst smoking a pipe, typical of a lot of mechanics I've known

I like it , lots of potential. Masterbox has certainly come a long way.Glad to see it Bob

Man that is brilliant. This is such a versatile set as you say Pat.
What I like the most is the fact that it are guys who are wearing their uniform in the most casual way possible. No webbing or other stuff that only can get in the way but true mechanics working somewhere at the back of the front. Next to that the brilliant poses. I can see some frankensteining posibilities here. Might get 2 of them.

Great news

This along with their other releases look really good. Certainly they seem to be finding a rich vein of potential mini dioramas that others don't bother with.

I have to say, at it was brought home in the recent review of the BMW combination, that the fact the tyres do not have any tread detail on the centre of them is really bad. I'd have almost accepted it 30 years ago, but even then Tamiya and Italeri managed it so why not Masterbox now.

Unless I can source some after-market tyres made for these sets or get the inclination to try and make the Tamiya or Italeri ones to fit I won't be bothering, and I was really looking forward to replacing the old ones with something more up to date.

I feel it's a big mistake on Masterbox's part to fall short on detail in this area.

Hope it gets changed real soon.
