1/35th scale Hummer Avenger.

Boy, that looks great.

Is that a kit, aftermarket, or scratch built.

It's funny you should post that, because I was just thinking how I would like to build one and I don't ever remember seeing a kit of one.

it is a kit but i added wire and stuff. email me at info@scalemodelingbychris.com for more pics

Awsome! I'm building the same kit right now (Italeri's right?). What kind of paint did you use for the body and for the turn signal lights?

I never had an Avenger platoon, always had tracked vehicles or M998's with Stinger racks when I was a Stinger Platoon Leader. So, this kit will help fill the void.

There were actually two different Avenger kits. Esci (also boxed by AMT/Ertl in the US) made the "M998 AVANGER" (note misspelling). It was kit #5025 and resembled an Avenger, but was highly inaccurate. It was released around 1989-90.

There was fear that when Italeri started releasing ex-Esci kits, that the Avenger would be one of them. It turned out that the Italeri Avenger is an all new tool (at least the turret and other Avenger-specific parts are new).

Decent kit, yours looks very nice.

LOL. Didnt I see that up on eBay a few weeks ago?

Yes it was!!
