I can't help with the Blast CROWS but I can send you replacement parts for the rest of the kit if you want to try to save it. I would send them at no charge to you.
I'm unclear....Did you use Blast CROWS or Bronco CROWS?
Bottom line is, I can help with Academy and Bronco parts but not Blast Models.
Brent, You are the man! I just PM you.

Then, remove it. Maybe it was good luck that the light fell on it?

Good eye and catch! I had three of them pass me, on my way back to Florida. Same camo. Well, one of them had the hatch removed. But, the other two were M1025s.

M1025's are still in service but they are being phased out one by one as they have significant mechanical failures. What the Army calls 'Maintenance Expenditure Limits' has limited how much can be spent on legacy humvees for repairs. If the required repairs exceeds the MEL, the vehicle is turned in and eliminated from inventory.

I was late to activate my carmera, only shot the back, love the look of those green M1025s, I would love to build one in the future.
Matt you saw three too?
Anyway how many humvees in a squad normally?

Thx Brent, did AM improve that later on m1114 or m1151? And what is that antenna on the 1025 right side(the last picture)?

This one is for you, Kuba
Voyager m1151 window VS Legend window (both for academy m1151), which one has the correct size? I am still making a decision .....
window from Legend m1151 update for Tamiya looks good to me.

The straps are perfect! I would have been playing with them for hours, before I thought it was acceptable.
