Its a toys, what did you think it was?
Little early morning sarcasm. Based on those figures, its looks like some knockoff you'd find at one of the Dollar stores.

It looks like someone at FOV heard about the incredible success of bbi's Combat Command line and wants to get in on the action
I like how the tank and truck are so obviously to the same scale
Hey Panache Place--did you know that some knock off company in China is running around with your logo?!?!?!?
Sad part is: I'd love to see a decent truck for 1/18. Operative word being DECENT.

Wow..
It's like a car accident.. It's so horrible I just can't stop looking at it...
And yeah, someone e-mail this to the FoV folks.. It would be the highlight of their weekend!

Well, I sent a message to my contact at Panache Place with a link and a "please tell me this isn't so" message. If I hear anything, I will post the answer.

And the answer:
This looks like an unfortunate 'knock off' product---definitely not one of ours. Thank you for bringing this to
our attention.

Clearly an unauthorized knock off of some kind, look carefully at the text on the side of the box, it reads...."Top Quality The Products!" FOV is not perfect, but they've got better grammar than that...LOLLL

I may actually break down and bid on that thing (the tow truck, not the POS FOV knock-off). At the current price, it could be worthwhile, if nothing else, as custom fodder. I just need to route it through my friends in Hamburg or Frankfurt...

I confirm, it is horrible. I have a variation of it already posted here. It was not FOV but "21 century/millenium toy" branded

I started month ago work on it but now I wait for room to continue...
