                        I purchesed some of these off of e-bay after having seen them for some time.  Is it just my samples or do most of these casting leave somthing to be desired?  I am planning to just use them as a guide and try (I don't care what Yoda says there is a try) to scratch build my own.  Any, pointers advice etc. out there?  If anyone has a finished picture I would like to see how yours came out.

                        I am not sure but these came out about 15-16 years ago, the casting was quite messy with flash etc. but I think they were quite ok scale wise. They were the same scale as the HALYCON 1/35th APC.

                        Boy OH Boy that brings back memories.

                        Regards,

                        Terry.

                        OK I just wonder if the casting on the originals wasn't very good or if this was a recast.
