Thanks!

Thanks Karl and Bill

Very nice review.

Very nice review Karl. I also like that the coolers are built up, allowing the lid to be posed open for more dio opportunities vs. the resin coolers available.

Happy Modelling, -zon

Thanks guys, glad you like the review!

Good review: thank you Sir!

Thanks for the review. I appreciate the photos of the figure as you're the first I know of who took plenty of photos of the figure.

Great review Karl.
You covered everything I thought about it after just finishing the kit.I did find the suspension a little hard to fit being black on black,but my eyes aren't what they were when I was 20.The 1 piece windows actually worked out well with glueing only needed on the roof so no need to add glue around the trim.
A very nice kit for the price.I also believe Meng can have a very bright future.

Again guys, thanks for the comments. I'm just glad you guys liked the review as I know a lot of people are interested in these kits.

Tom, I agree about the one piece windows/glazing. 1/24 car kits often come with a one piece glazing like that (only a lot bigger) and as you said it works well because you don't have to glue around the window edges, just where the glazing shell attaches to the roof of the truck body, quite simple really. I actually didn't think they would go for that sort of glazing when I heard about the first Meng kit, but I was certainly pleased they did go for it in the end.
