The breakage issues seem to be around the drive sprockets, as the suspension is the same as the Stuart, hidden behind the armor skirts.

We have not had similar reports with the Stuart, which without a doubt is the star of the 1/6 21C line. The WSC is a runner up even though the scale of the WSC is undersized.

I agree the drive sprockets are the problem (I love being an expert when I haven't had my hands on the product) 8) but since alot of 1/6 guys have taken the skirts off the Stuart and haven't reported the same problem I wou,ld think the sprockets are not exactly the same part.

I love the German Motorcycle they made in 1/6. That would be my first need if I ever were to upscale. What really pisses me off is that the Zundapp was a 1/32 hotcake, and the 1/6th Bike is one of the most popular 1/6 pieces....what's missing from this picture...?.. :evil:

Digger:

The 21C German bike was my first 1/6 bike. Most of my purchases are either custom or kitbashed figures so I don't have any idea if the figure I have with the bike is the one that came with it but it is one of my favorites, with the duster coat and the sub gun that looks like the Brit Lancaster. Anyway I have all the 1/6 bikes that are around except for the new Dragon w/sidecar. I'm looking for one reasonably priced. I do like my bikes :)

Overall, 1/6 is getting so hard because there is so much just plain cool stuff out or coming out (the Nebelwerfer and the Dragon 20mm AA) that my wallet stays empty most of the time 8)
