Very NICE! I'd like to see a US Tank Crew, 1918, perhaps including a figure of Lt.Col. George S. Patton...

This should be a good set with the old "bicycle with an engine" motorbike included.

that's a nice set and would be even better if there were alternate arms so you could change the pose, the guy on the left looks like he's modelling at a fashion show...

I have this set in my grubby hand. Driver has alternate left arm hanging straight down, orderly has alternate head with Kepi. Peugeot M/C is good in places but light on detail elsewhere. Bike uses a leather belt final drive with brass rivets, but is moulded as a solid strip in the kit. This looks very poor, as the belt drive is highly visible.

Oh BTW for some reason I got two figure sprues, I'm interested if anyone else has had this happen.

Beautiful, well done. The motorcycle is an excellent addition that may cause this kit to be very popular even when not used with the FT.
