Humble Jeep? No! Planetary Defense Vehicle? YES!!

Just saw this on another forum.  This may tempt me back into modeling after my unfortunate attempt at the tiny destroyer escort project.  My old arthritic hands can probably handle this one.

Their officer forgot to mentioned that Godzilla is bulletproof!  

 

Just saw that the kit is on Amazon.... the Jeep quality looks pretty good....

Ah, the next interesting dio. Remember the Hillersleben Dio.

I've watched some of those old Godzilla movies. Godzilla can take them out from that distance. LOL. I'm looking forward to this build. This jeep is considerably bigger than your Destroyer Escort. I believe this will come out looking very good. BTW, I liked your DE.

 

Semper Fi.

Note it's 1/25 scale, bigger than the usual 1/35.

Mikie, I would love to see the sprues before you start to build this.

I actually haven't bought the kit yet. I'll post if and when I get it. The DE was quite a challenge that I enjoyed but it was tough for my very low skill level. I get some time off around the holidays, so maybe this will be an Xmas gift for myself. Thanks for the encouragement.
