The new sides are better and there are, overall, less parts to build yourself a vanillia chimera.<br /><br />However, the new one peice back door is a step backwards, the new track peices are ok but on the old one, you could 'leave a wheel out' and have one for stowage. <br /><br />The leaving out of the track guards is a blatant rouse to get one to order a IG vehicle accessory sprue for the extra £8 + postage. <br /><br />I picked up an old WD earlier today and saw that back then (early 1980s), the new and shiney Land Raider kit (the first one) went for £12. Pro rata, that was, to me more expensive; I would have struggled to buy one whereas today I appear to be able to heamorage money to create a 'proper' armoured unit. <br /><br />Yes, they do seem expensive. For what they are, compared to an AFV Club or Tamiya kit. But and however, they are toys/gaming peices first and foremost. I'm babbling now, (tiiredness) and have lost my point.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010917663653102321.post-59771660186132342112011-10-18T21:05:58.844+01:002011-10-18T21:05:58.844+01:00At the price it should go together well.At the price it should go together well.John Lambsheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04598696442104566164noreply@blogger.com
