Seeing the parts I become a bit wary... coming from my experiences with older MMK-kits... might hopefully be proven wrong, but I would have to get one into my hands... Wonder what they charge for it.

Just from the photos, and I wish I could change what my 'mind's eye' sees, but there is just so many other good injection molded Russian/Soviet trucks out there that it would be hard to justify this purchase. If I happen to break down and purchase this vehicle, I know I would cannibalize those injected molded kits to build this one up.

Yep, that's more or less what I had in mind... And again: always depends on what the price tag's saying
