Hi there, just picked up four HobbyCraft BJ1212 Technicals in 1/35.

I'll be doing them for £9 + P&P, and they include a 106mm recoiless rifle, and three crew with AK-47's
Great little kit, with good detail, and great possibilities.  (And much, much cheaper than the Mig Productions kits!)

There's a thread here about a Hi-lux in styrene.  I can't recall if it was myself or someone else who posted the original link, but it was there bold as brass in 35th scale styrene rather than MIG's resin.  Quite reasonably priced too.

Here's the direct link...

I got the Meng HiLux from HobbyEasy today. It's a top notch kit and the quality reminds me of the Wingnuts kits. Everything from the boxtop/box presentation & construction, the instruction booklet, the packaging and the plastic bits are nicely made and presented. The only very, very minor complaints are that the doors are molded shut and the clear bits are molded as a single unit that includes the overhead light and the visors. It would be easy to cut out the windows. Opening the doors would be harder.
Definitely worth getting one or two.
