We all have a tendency to lay the blame for something we've done on somebody else. Well...I lay the blame for this purchase squarely on the shoulders of our very own Prof, MENCE!! Thanks, Mence!! Here's what I got: Those two pics are of the sleeve covering the kit box. Those are the box top, sides, and end panels. This shows the difference in size compared to an AMT 1/25 scale Ford F-150 kit. HUUUUUGE box!!! Stacked in rather nicely! Ten sprues, and EVERYTHING bagged!! Tires look perfect. Chrome foil for the mirrors, and a mask for the windscreen. "Put This Here" sheet looks well organised, but I'll know more about that when I start the build. Without tearing into it, and checking for parts fit, I'll say this kit is prolly worth a bit more than an AMT kit, which is a fairly good kit, itself! More, later, dudes!!! Thanks, Mence!!!

This should be a fun build! It even has a separate headliner! I've never seen one of those in a kit, before!

Very nice, thanks for sharing. You sure do get a lot of bits in the box, should be a treat to watch you build this! With the imminent arrival of the Jeep, Mengs 1/24s are going from strength to strength.

Looks very promising for highly detailed 1/24 scale kits. MENG has a Hummer kit on the market, now.

Carl, I don't think I have built any 1/35 scale kits. I have a couple in the stash, but haven't got to them, yet.
