Many thanks for the kudos Panzer. I agree completely with your assesment. I think I mentioned the skirt was rubbery, but indeed I forgot to mention that it didn't affect pose-ability. Do mind that skirt though as it flakes somewhat after sunlight exposure.
Thanks for taking the effort to make all these pics! I don't own any 1:18 military vehicles apart from the rockslide and armadillo, so this helps. Now I got to have one of those hummers.....

Ahhh sorry Sci-Find missed your comment on the skirt. Also thanks for the heads up on the sun & paint flake. Over on Fighting 1/18 it`s been mentioned this could possibly be the same sort of material thats known to rot. Not saying it is BUT keep an eye or two on those skirts people.
Also sorry if I hounded you on how they fit in Military vehicles LOL just have a few & was keen to know prior. Have to say They fit perfectly. Sci-Find if getting a Humvee there`s the BBI SUPER HUMVEE (you can have it open top or with a roof). Maybe the HASBRO Desert one or the Powerteam ones. BBI & 21st TUS XD Humvee`s are also great. |

Great review!
With this one, and Sci-find's, there's a good amount of info. These figs are really useful. The sculpt seems a bit...basic, but not bad at all. As fodder, they're great! Btw, i think Maisto (they make bykes) has some sort of Humvees too. I saw several vehicles, and they're -supposedly- 1:18. One also looked like a van...

Same here, with the additional caveat that Maisto didn't design theirs for figures at all. |

Ahhh didn`t know that about Maisto 1/18 humvee. I know none of the 25th have fitted comfortably in my 21st Humvee so one reason I didn`t try.
I think the BBI/HASBRO ones seem to be the general norm amongst collectors. I`ve got a few of the Super Humvee`s & never really had any real issues with them. |
