Yeah, these were hashed in another thread. It looks like that's a Wespe, not a Hummel.

definitely based on the wespe...only question is size....the good thing is the wespe wasn't very big, so 11 inches long would be perfect. But from the picture i think it's much smaller than that, even.

The AAV looks pretty close to scale and would be a monster if it is....nearly 18 inches long.

T-72 looks way small to me. The biggest problem will be finding these items as chap mei is very tough to find, for some reason. I was very surprised to see them at Toy Fair as they don't seem to have much interest in the north american market, given the difficulty of finding their products here.

thx but i had saved the ones i was interested in anyway. The aav and wespe appear to be some of the more realistic vehicles produced by chap mei. Hope they don't disappoint in person...
