Nice review Spud. Man that's a lot of kit eh. Tons of styrene and PE, not to mention all those tires. Yep the engine is a great piece and will add to the model. Looking forward to a build blog/review of this baby.

Nice spud, I'm not much on modern stuff, but I really do like this one. Might have to keep me eye out for one.

This will be really cool. That pipe of tires is absolutely ridiculous. Love it!

That's a lot of model for one kit. And I thought the Famo with trailer was a great kit with lots of parts ((LOL)). I'd like to do a MAZ if I can get one cheap.....you know, all rusted up etc.
