OMG! I'm not into Brit/Commonwealth stuff, but I know this has been on some folks wishlist for as long as there have been wishlists!

Talk about a rain of wealth, first I read about Thunder Model's Scammell and then I scroll down and come across this one. Interesting timing, I'd like to see a build review of the two put head-to-head.

Terry Ashley has promised just that on his Facebook page. Reviews don't get much better than TA's for objectivity and relevance

Very nice indeed! Not so much into Commonwealth gear so far, but engineer stuff is always interesting and this one in particular will most definitely find its way to my bench! Also the pics from Nuremberg just look too promising to go by unnoticed...

Wonderfull news. For decades nothing and now 2 at once.
But i'll wait until i see an assebled kit. After a quick look at the pics I feel that there are some details missing like the tarp at the door windows, wiper motors or a part of the rear box (the wood under the jib).
For the moment, I keep my Accurate Armor kit.

I just received their Bedford radio truck. It is a very crisp moulding with no flash or sink marks. The decals are very nice too. The plastic is a bit thick in places but nothing that affects the final appearance.
