Are these: the figures sit perfectly straight, as if they were driving a sedan on a freeway on sunday, and are molded that way - Dragon seems to have forgotten that both the driver and the radio-operator have very little room for their legs. Also the equipment on the walls and the controlsticks limit their livingspace quite effectively. Wonder if dragon has even tried to fit the figures into the vehicle before issuing the kit?

I don't think the problem is the seats' compression, on the contrary, because the figures sat one centimeter above the seat when I finally got them into place somehow. :(

Too bad, but at least the two remaining look good.

Cheers and Happy Midsommer
