aaaaaaah I was al happy seeing a photo of a BTR-60 turns out it is a re-boxed zvesda BTR-70

I'm actually quite tempted to have a go at braille scale looking at those. I think the last thing I built in that scale was a B17 when I was 14 which sadly must have been shot down during the night as when I woke up the next day it was no longer on the ceiling but in a million bits on the floor. Tempted by the Montys caravan as they've got that at Duxford so ideal for reference pics

How is the actual Zvezda kit?

The Zvezda BTR-70 is the DML BTR-70 reboxed.

Woohoo! The LRDG set is my favourite model ever. It started a lifelong interest in the LRDG/SAS. Great to see it back in production!

As Karl said, Monty's caravan is at IWM Duxford. It was eerie to see it when I was there last year, having built the Matchbox model as a kid. It was like meeting a childhood hero or something. I mean, when you see a tank or a jeep or a plane, it's one from a batch of thousands; but there was only one Monty's caravan. You can look inside the thing... Amazing.

Sorry, got carried away there

The L.R.D.G. Jeep with 30 cwt Chevrolet kits was one of my first ever models .... back when I was beautiful.
