discussion MENG's 6X6 U.S COUGAR MRAP VEHICLE

[Adrian "Marvel" Reynolds]

I treated myself to this for Christmas and have plans to create a diorama with some figures and perhaps a Humvee


Anyway the kit is full to the brim with plastic and it looks just as good as the Bradley I did last year so here goes

That Couger is one hell of a kit, certainly not for the beginner or faint hearted. Not because it is a bad kit, quite the opposite, but it is quite complex from what I have seen.

 

[Adrian "Marvel" Reynolds]

I have to say its amazing, loving every minute of building it so far, your right its so detailed

I've got the Cougar and the EOD guys, both are great kits, the Cougar has so much detail and more can be added...as you do!


Enjoy them Ade

Just been to a LHS ( Parrabellum ) and found these tucked away, just what I needed as well I'd never been to his store before but now I will be a regular after the service he gave


I have to say what a pleasure it was to spend time talking with the owner, we've spoken before at shows but never had much time for a gossip. His knowledge on the US uniforms was a great insight for me.

Still need the back pack set and maybe a few civilians and it should be about right for what I have pictured in my head

This looks really interesting, chair pulled up and pop corn at the ready

 

[Adrian "Marvel" Reynolds]

Little update on my progress, as expected the kit is a dream to work with going together flawlessly.
