Dear all,
Did one of you already build the Revell Fordson WOT?
I asume that it is a repacking of ICM, right?

Thanks in advance

Paul

Remarkable!
Just views, no reactions.

I really thought that this truck would be of interest for, at least, some of you since the choice of Allied trucks is not too big and therefore experiences would be gathered.
I have build ICM before, which was apleasure and gave a good result, but I have no clue what happened with this model. Did Revell take over the moulds? Is it a new design by Revell?
The latest would require some input since Revell tends to simplify things. Which would bring down the joy of making it (at least for me).

So, thanks for those who will help me to get an idea about this.

Could you please post a link to a catalog page or some sales page that shows this vehicle.

It would be of interest, at least to me, if it is in 1/35th.

OK, I got cha!



As I have often said elsewhere on this site (once just this week on another thread.) It is always wise to use the little white "search" box at the top of this Armorama page to look for previous articles on the very subjects you may be looking for:

Two somewhat annoying issues: It's a machinery body (sadly, sans machinery), not a GS body. Secondly rather than have normal Dunlop type tires it has what may be museum-fitted postwar tires. A resin set is available to fix the tire problem.

Anyone interested may want to check that alternate thread listed above. There is much discussion to be found there regarding the machinery body, the machinery needed to fill it and other considerations.
