I didn't notice this one before... I know these pods have been done before by other manufacturers, but I never got to get one.. so, it's cool that they're doing one for their pickups.. and I hope they do more weapons and accessories for the pickups.



By the way, their two-pickup kit is on pre-order for the end of September.. and the price looks very reasonable.. around $17

At HobbyEasy

I just pre-ordered as well. I have been wanting to pick these up for some time. This price is unbeatable. Even on evilbay it would cost more than this for a single one of the pickup kits.

You have to remember, though, that these won't have the AA guns with them, just the two pickups... Of course, I still think this is a good price for two pickup kits.. I hope they don't change it between now and then

For now I want to build a stable of clean civilian cars for future diorama potential. Not everything needs to be destroyed and covered with graffiti. This is a great price for a couple of vehicles to practice my clean civilian technique on... if I actually had a technique to practice! Thanks for the news Hisham.

Regards,

Eric
