The Unimog is such a cool vehicle. Good job!

Goldman
Great progress Roger. Very interesting model. Come on Revell, start re-releasing these kits again!

Goldman
The model looks great with the decals on. Nice!

Alexander Grivonev
Wow, Metal Earth really stepped their game up. How many parts?

A bit disappointed, sad to say. Needs more strength - too hollow!
Now completed.....

What kind of oil will you use? 😮

Roger Trewenack

Hi Folks,
I'm not normally a quitter, but when I struggle to determine what is flash and what is part of a part, then I am afraid I am calling this quits.
so I've cleaned up what is obviously flash (I hope) and then returned everything to the box, where it will be for sale, along with the reference book and AFV Club tracks.
Also, i'd have to say that the quality of the molds is pretty poor, with "side-slid" parts and a lot of other with serious bubbles in them - I don't need this!!

Ian Olman
I'd be interested in the book for sure. I'm sure the kit will sell pretty fast..

Robert Podkoński
Cool!

Congrats, for the result and the special experience 👍 There were some interesting models here, but in the end I was always reluctant to order them for different reasons (quality, price,...). It may be cheaper to buy a complete set retrospectively from people who have given up.
I hope you can add the seats without big hassle.
About the electronics: Is the engine sound constant, like a running engine idling? Are all the lights are always on?

Roger Trewenack
Hi bughunter, yes, I would never consider a subscription model - I acquired this as an almost complete collection, then sourced the missing pieces, still expensive tho'.
the engine sound is just one sound, note, tone. ALL the lights are on, then the tail lights brighten when brake pressed - very gimmicky! I'm hoping the the BTTF De Lorean sound effects are better..... (for which I now have all the parts - same acquisition.) - but time for something simpler next.....
