Wow! It really looks great.. and it comes with an engine, too!

I'm definitely getting more than a couple of them.

I hope this release makes Italeri/Revell re-release their old 109.. I'd really like to get a few of those.

Thanks for the pics, Jim.

Hi,
What would really be nice is if the kits would have optional left/right hand dashes for those that drive on the wrong side of the road JUST KIDDING !!! Really, just glad to see some Landies on the way. If HB doesn't produce earlier versions I'm sure the AM will be on that bandwagon ASAP.

Well, partially good news... but I'm still going to have to bash one into something resembling an Aussie SAS Land Rover.

With regards to release date, costs etc Hobbyboss have not even officially told their distributors about this release yet so we are in the dark as much as you.

As soon as we know any details I will post them up for you.
