Look again - On the truck, the frame rail aren't parallel, the wheels aren't parallel, there are mold seams on the tires, on the back of the truck bed, on the steps under the cab, around the hood - you can even see where the hood part was cut off the sprue.  The windshield isn't fully installed.  The motorcycle has the same issues - mold seams on most of the parts, ejector pin marks in the side car, terrible alignment of the sidecar / motorcycle, silvered decals.  Those can be seen from just quick looks at the pictures.  Look at ANY of the models that MM posts and you will see some, if not all of these basic building issues.

Bronto--In looking just at the big truck, I don't see the errors you cited.  Maybe I just don't have a decent pair of eyes.  The big truck looks good to me, except the pick and jack don't seem fastened down like the shovel.  I would be interested in how "Art Instructor" does his dust effects.

Nice models, but I would like to see 3 color camo.

Interesting pics with smaller brothers ;-)

Still more of the same from AI - mold seams, ejector pin marks, bad decal application, part alignment issues.  But i guess if your happy with paying for mediocrity then oh well..........  And a note if anyone else is building a German truck - the triangle shaped piece on the roof was only raised to indicate the truck was towing a trailer.
