Great review Bill...thanks. As far as the wheels, looks like there will be a seam to deal with in both the 2 piece and sandwich styles. I personally haven't had any luck with DS as the one set of tracks I had literally crumbled after about a year being painted with acrylics, so I trash anything DS now and replace it with something (anything!) else.

Thanks, James, for the on-the-ground reports. Hopefully Greg Rossa at Quick Wheels will release one of his beautiful resin wheel sets with mask.

Geraint, I would be happy to help you put together a review. It's my job here at Armorama (editing contrib reviews). We always need new blood, as folks get busy. PM me if you're interested.

Thanks Bill for the review. I got this for Christmas and plan on building later this year. Hopefully someone will produce a set of AM tires.

Thanks, Marc. I put in a word for Opel Blitz tires with Quick Wheel/Bitskrieg.
