Thanks!

Thanks for the review. Informative, especially about the cab. However, considering the doors are molded shut and the poor cab interior I don't think I would rate it 90%.

My choice is the 5 ton 6x6 truck - looks cooler than the daintier looking 4x4. Nice to see that it appears they will offer that too. Hopefully we will see some add-on stuff like the crane too, and a DVE.

It may be a little bite over rated, but the overall details and work of trumpeter is outstanding.
BTW they will release the complete new family truck, when i dont know
Cheers

I know some of you guys are itching for the uparmored version of this one. Well, here is an armored version that is scratch buildable for ya. This is the RACKS system which stands for Radian Armor Crew kits.

Sebastien maybe it might be worth mentioning the door issue to Trumpeter as I am sure the AM boys and girls will release updates for this kit, and it will make it more appealing to the market it would seem.

I did send all my comments and critics to Trumpeter and they told me on their last email
that they will work on a better cabin inside, they will release the next vehicle with the doors open and the roof as well as the flat bed.

So good news, and it is nice to see them taking into account our comments.
Cheers
Seb
