Nice review, Pat! I like that the tires are included as well as spare wing nuts and wiper. The twin Vickers K does look a little blob-like, but if I ever build another Humber, I'll definitely buy this set to go with it.

Thanks for the review Pat. I particularly like the stowage in this set, not a fan of having the twin-K's covered up they way they are but I still wouldn't mind getting my hands on one of these upgrade packages.

Hi Pat, Thanks for that appreciated.
Re the Twin Vickers, I spoke to Graham when he was over at Duxford and he mentioned that he was going to recast the part as he wasn't entirely happy with it. Don't know if that has happened thought.
It would be interesting to see it painted up, give a better idea of the look.
Thanks again.

It would be interesting to see if there were any photos of the Twin Ks or any other MGs covered up. Was there an issued rain cover or was it just an ad hoc arrangement by the crew
