| Had hoped to get my repaired childhood scorpions outside this weekend but the weather was awful.   I'm really pleased with these repairs to the turret, smoke launchers and machine gun.   The location piece had broken off, now repaired.   Was given the missing axel and wheels   Repaired the top hatch hinges.  Repaired both ends of the broken exhaust.  Can't wait to get them outside for a photo shoot! | Sparklebudgie likes this post |

| So cool! Excellent repairs! They're looking better than new! Looking forward to seeing these vehicles in some realistic outdoor settings!

| Thank you, the white material is styrene sheets, tube and rod. It's great stuff. This was made by evergreen. | |

| Lucky bugger! You have not one, but two of them! The ladies of Kimono Troop would love to have even one such vehicle!
Cheers! | |
