Replikant Technologies is a fairly new name in the modeling business. After releasing several different sets of Schwimmwagen wheels in 1/35 scale and receiving stellar reviews, the company released two types of Humvee airless wheels, something most of us would think just isn’t possible to produce in resin. Armorama presents a review covering these masterpieces.

Hey chaps, if you are thinking of building something with a little "pizzazz", go no further than these set of airless tires. They are FANTASTIC...! When I opened the box I could not believe the crispness, detail and overall perfection in the molds. I've seen a lot o resin in my days, but these little gems have to be seen to be believed...they are THAT good...!

Chhers...now GO BUY A SET...!!!
