The Jeeps are not exactly my cup of tea but they could indeed make for a relaxing weekend build. Especially since you get two of them in one box.

ETA: Just realized this is a rebox of the 2007 release with added decals.

Man, those 1/72 jeeps must be tiny. I did a 1/72 HMMWV for a review many years ago and it was really small. A jeep is even smaller. Way too small for my big hands. I'll stick with 1/35.

Hi Gino.There are 9 parts for each Jeep kit, and five of them are wheels. I do not think it is a problem for your hands.... but guess you need a 000 brush :-D

I would probably need a 10 "O" brush.

I'll still stay with 1/35.

I hope the figures are molded in hard plastic; I find the soft stuff usually found in 1/72 to be difficult to work with.
