Looks like a very nicely done kit in 1/48, just not wild about some of the wide attachment points on the casting blocks. The price seems pretty reasonable as well. It's great to see some figures included as well, but there faces seem a bit...soft?

Thank you for your kind words.
Concerning the casting blocks you are right,they are big but the attachment points are very thin,you only need a hobby knife to remove them,no saws or anything stronger.
The figure faces look soft because of the flash from the camera,they are fine,not great but good enough.

Good to hear Constantinos. Thin resin is easy enough to deal with, and understood about the faces on the figures. It really is nice to see a kit of an open vehicle that includes figures specifically designed for it. Thanks for your prompt reply!
