Hello,
I want more Hummers. The Revell Hummer has its faults, but also Dragons Hummer has some faults. For example, the doors are in the edges straight and should be round. For some maybe no problem. But if you want to correct this, very hard.
The wheels, i do not like them.They are nicer than Revells. But hard to work with. It is very difficult to get the rim in the tire with out damaging the rim. The plastic of the rim is just to soft... And when you get them to gethere, there is a gap left between the rim and tire.
I also donīt like the toy like features of Dragons Hummers. For example the hinges on the door. I sometimes Dragon makes pre-assambled models and kits as a after thought...
I also donīt like that Dragon put 2 almost the same Hummers in 1 box. Revell has 2 complete different Hummers.
Is then Revells Hummer better? No, it has its faults to. I have started building them both. And am now wishing for for a complete new one. Roden maybey...
Just jocking. But just look at the landslide of Puma and all its versions that have been coming our way. Or Opel Blitsen, Abramses, Leopard or GMC trucks.
A little more differnts in kits would sure be nice.
So Peagasus, where is that Pershing.=)
