This was the only one I could find with a quick Google, Kit... :thumbsup:

Not arguing with you there mate.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Wow, that's pretty darn close to what we had on the roof of the Landie! It'd need a styrene cover over it, but it's almost there, thanks for the link!  :thumbsup:
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

...is a new Revell mould.  Not a repopped Italeri one.
By all accounts it is rather nice - although I have not inspected one personally.


My Mazda has moss growing on it along the window rubbers on the side that is always next to the fence when its parked.

I built it recently. My only criticism is the "heavy" leaf springs.  Compared to Italeri's they are huge!

With the evil thoughts I'm having about the Landi Devil mate none of that would matter  :wacko:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

There are workable PE spring sets for the Italeri 1/24 Land Rover.
They could probably be fitted to the Revell chassis if a set isn't produced specifically.

It doesn't detract from the kit.
