Yup, Dave, too neatly stacked and no weight effect. The sacks ought to be smaller or they're too heavy to lift.

Cheers,

The old Tamiya set of sand bags sit a lot better than these

Never heard of the LAP-7 - it looks like the German Rocket launchers on a Russian Lorry, but made by which side?

A very long vehicle, I thought at first look (really modern military vehicles aren’t my main area of expertise), and on counting the roadwheels I find seven per side, so that explains that if it’s otherwise based on a T-72-series chassis that normally has only six.

For the Star Wars fans coming from Bandai in 1/72:

Great to have it in the same scale as their other SW craft, so you can expand your Rebel fleet.:tongue-out3:

Always been my favourite Star Wars fighter craft, so this might just end up in my kit stash sometime

The Xmas Edition! Has an extra 1/35 figure of President Trump. He has the choice of 2 heads, one the iconic quiff, and the other a Santa hat!

Bemused by Meng producing this! I shall refrain from passing comment on POTUS having two heads!

Or to sell more kits in the USA before Christmas

Must be aimed at the US Market - I can't imagine many people outside of the States wanting a miniature Trump!

Oh, I can think of all sorts of uses people might put one to … but I’ll try to avoid making this a political thread by not mentioning any
