    Not so much new, but a replacement. Several weeks ago, looking for my next build, I looked at the 1/35 ICM G4 ( the six wheerer limo ) - found I'd broken the Mercedes bonnet star. I emailed ICM, but found that the service department were on holiday! Anyway got email Monday (8/8) & packet delivered today (14/8 )

      Nice story, Dave. ICM's service matches the quality of their more recent kits ... exceptional.

              Now THAT is very cool indeed Mark!
              What an absolute BEAST...... I`m tending to lean more towards unusual stuff these days,(Expect a Firesale from my stash soon!!),and THAT certainly fits the bill!:thumb2:
              I haven`t seen one of those before..... Good spot mate,
              Andy
              P.S. AND it`s got VINYL TRACKS:tongue-out:...... Excellent!!!

                So nowhere near as exciting as Mark's purchase.......

                Someone on here recommended this under the Books review section and thought why not as it's something I know ABSOLUTELY nothing about ....£5 second hand.

                ATB.

                      You really do unearth some bargains don`t you Peter! :thumb2:
                      Ever since i built the M3A1 White Scout Car a few years back,(Which is STILL my favourite build and finish BTW!),i`ve wanted to do one of the Half Track Variants.
                      Problem is,when i could actually find one,the prices were a bit too steep in my eyes:angry:,but,after much searching,i actually found one that was acceptable!!:thumb2:,

                        Hi Andy
                        That was the second kit I built way back in 2011. A nice kit.

                          We're thinking SOOOOO along the same lines here Andy - I may have to initiate a plagiarism claim - or form a Vietnam thread ... !
