1.
Packaging: Small sealed plastic bag. 2. Type of kit: Resin conversion kit for the Airfix kit (but will probably fit other kits with minor adjustment). No decals. Very limited production run.
3. Quality: Casting quality is very good, with parts on a thin carrier film (as usual for resin kits). Minimal clean-up is to be expected. 4. Contents The set consists of 4 railroad wheels, 4 attachments for the wheels on the hull and a tow bar + stowing attachment. 5. Instruction sheet: Very minimal instruction sheet consisting of 3 drawings. Together with pictures found on the weblog http://fbminis.blogspot.com/ these should be sufficient for the conversion. What is not mentioned is that with the parts you can either build a) a regular wheeled jeep with or without tow bar b) a railroad jeep with railroad wheels installed and ordinary roadwheels stowed on the hull c) a railroad jeep with ordinary roadwheels installed and railroad wheels stowed on the hull 6. Decals and painting options: Nihil. There is one picture of the real vehicle on the weblog. 7. General Impression: Very good 8. References Nihil, apart from the info found on the FBMinis weblog.
With thanks to FBMinis for the review sample. |
