Jeff, I really like that... I don't think I ever have seen one built before! Dicky, great choice!!! Let me guess... it will not be a OOB... you will add some leaves blowing machine too.

I've also got my eye on an ICM kit. Can anybody tell me about how good or bad they are?

ICM kits are kind of hit-or-miss. Their newer stuff tends to be pretty good, though.

I'll be chancing my arm with this beauty....... This thing is hoooooge!!! Dicky - glad you put this up last night...it ended my debate as to which kit to do. No way I'm competing with you on that one! Question - what are you going to do about the mesh? Using the stuff that comes in the kit? Or do you have something a bit more in scale? I think I may have to wait for Eduard to come out with a replacement set (unless you've got any bright ideas).

Now I have plenty that fall in this category but I may go with one of these, Should work perfectly as I have one to build for a retirement gift in the new year. It will be an accurate armour Jackal kit so I'm in!

Dupes - Glad to be of assistance fella - looks like you were pretty geared up on the HEMMT project anyhoo - the BD Guntruck conversion does look kewell....there must be sooooo many bits boxes full of the kit back ends of HEMMT's eh? I loved doin' my TFFT conversion and will certainly be tacklin' somethin' else based on the big 977. Ref: The Anti-RPG netting - I have measured it out and it does scale out quite well TBH - I do have several different mesh types available and will see how it goes....teh best bit of this kit is the interior....not perfect but a good base for some extra detailing methinks...... TFFT? I don't think I'm aware of that HEMTT conversion...got a link to your build? Intrigued! (Especially since I have a spare HEMTT chassis just "laying around". ) Netting - interesting. I thought it looked pretty thick, but I'm only basing that on WWII-style mesh...haven't actually seen the VBCI in person. Will be watching intently to see your method.

Man oh Man, there are some really cool things happening in this thread. Thanks for the info on ICM Dupes and Dicky. Here's the kit I have my eye on Russian BTR-152W APC. They are both pretty cool. Maybe I'll order both and see what happens. P.S. the other one is a 232 6 Rad for those of you that were wondering.

Pete- Way too cool!!! Go for it... dig the flying union jack!
Dicky- Is that when you lost all of your hair building this AWESOME HEMMT? Great seeing it again... one of my favorites.
Jeff- This look too cool! Never saw it before...

Guys- Here's my choice... originally I planned for Puma but after seeing few entrees using same kit and I was really in mood something so DAK'y... Looked inside... it looked great. Even comes with aluminum turned barrel and some PE. Maybe this time it will be truly an OOB...

Man, I am loving this GB already.... As Dupes said, we had a meeting of the minds on the phone the other night. He came up with the HEMET. I came up with one of the Hobby Boss M706/LAV 150 series (I have all 5 off them). I'm not sure which one I'll do, but it will be painted in this scheme for the Philippines:

I actually kind of like the one in the pic. The modified up-gun turret is funky. Problem is, I don't have much modern stuff, so sourcing an up-gun turret to use as a base is tricky...
