I have been drooling over this kit since it was new, so definitely following

Yeah, I agree with Martin. This has always been a kit, I wanted to get my hands on. I actually saw the built model, at Bolton IPMS in January. Those tyres are amazing and the vehicle itself, looked almost space-like.

Thank you, Bozzer! Right now, I'm working on the equipment boxes in the back. I didn't start with the cabin. I will post some pictures later

It most definitely is, a "must have" kit, for me! I can't help but wonder, why it's not been re-released again? I can only assume, it's something to do with the licence?

It has been twice after approximately 10 years. Last one was in 2013….

It's possible to buy this kit from eBay, but it costs round about 150€. I bought the kit produced in the 1980th and the plastic is very fragile and the equipment boxes aren't well detailed and it's not possible to open them fully. Besides that, I love this kit. The overall fitting is good and this kit is well designed. If it is possible to get this kit in a bundle with other kits, it is possible to get it relatively cheap

Let's hope they release it again, soon? I read an interesting review of this kit, from when it first came out. I'll share it, just incase anyone has missed it?

My kit finally arrived. Still factory sealed and all the way from Poland. I'm looking forward to building it, in the new year. I'll certainly be creating a build log, of it 👍
Yours is looking mighty fine, and proof, that these things can't be rushed 🙂

You need to be careful with the black and white parts. I broke many of them while building the chassis

That cab looks mighty complicated to operate.
I guess that it's safer inside, than outside?
Them boys deal with firefighting, on a different level.
Excellent work, as always, and merry Christmas to you.
