Again, a fine piece of work!

I have this kit in my stash and I'm looking forward to building it... I believe Warriors used to have a set of three Iranian figures for it, but it went out of production.. I keep hoping some company would buy their molds and recast those figures... I'll keep dreaming

I built this jeep, the three Warriors figures and the pipeline base that went with them many years ago. All very nice- I wish Warriors moulds would make a come-back too!

As for the Jeep, it looks excellent Vorya- I really like what you've done with the paintwork and weathering- its not over-done and it shows a nice amount of dust and dirt from use.

They were bought, along with many other companies like Trackz etc. in the big MMD purchase of VLS.

Those molds have been in their hands since 2007-ish? Unfortunately I just don't see it happening

For some reason I can't view the photos (must be my day for computer glitches), so, I'll assume you have done some very nice work!

Side note: I use to fly to your country in the mid to late 70's. Loved downtown Tehran, the 'sheet bread' fresh from the ovens, the old buildings, the tapestry I bought, and the 10 lanes of traffic on a 3 lane road...

I know very well what the media shows...and Iran and the U.S. are usually shown in very negative light to one another all the time...usually violent examples. When I visited Iran, people were extremely friendly, courteous towards Americans (Westerners in general), more than willing to invite you for dinner. At the time when I would stay at the Intercontinental Hotel in downtown Tehran, I could never buy a beer at the Hotel lounge...there was always a friendly Iranian buying. We had conversations like everyone else: hope for a good life, good family core, success in the work place, places to vacation, retirement, sports...the list goes on and on. I would love to revisit one day...
