Airfix Airborne Jeep

Got this a while ago, only just got around to making it



This is a nicely engineered kit and quite good value for money at AU$12



You get several options, including machineguns for the jeep; no crew however, which would have been a useful inclusion




I'm thinking of pulling out my Jeep collection now and seeing if I can't improve on their appearance a bit with some new paintwork and decals.

  1. A neat wee set. Nicely made as well.

    A sound idea chum. I think my jeeps are on the list for the refurb this weekend.

    I agree that some decals but also some stowage will surely improve the model

    1. I painted up some of the Matchbox NATO (British) Paras as Royal Marines. I used Roco Mini Tank NATO figures as the Argies
