21stC Humvee for sale on MD question

I see Monkey Depot has two different 21stC Humvees on sale right now. Does anyone have this Humvee and if so can they give me their opinions and maybe post some open pics?

Are those gas tanks removable or are they part of the sculpt?

I bought the other Humvee with the TOW which has one gas can which isn't attached to the Humvee. I don't have the non-TOW Humvee you're looking at, but in all the photos I've seen of it, the two gas cans are on the Humvee. Here's Badcat's photo of it---although that doesn't mean the gas cans can't be removed.

Yeah, I have the other style Humvee (in woodland camo) but am looking at picking up a couple of the ones pictured in the link. I searched the forums here and googled it but can't seem to find any reviews of the humvee I'm asking about.

I'll probably just go ahead and buy a couple because I doubt they'll last too long since they're on sale for such a great price.

If anyone does have any pics or reviews, please let me know. :D

I don't think anyone has answered the question. If they have, then just skip this.

The gas cans on the 21st C M988 are not removable, unless you pop them off yourself. They were put there to cover up the screw holes from the mod of the M1025 they put out before this one.

Also I think the 21st C Humvees look better than the bbi version. Other than the lame stowage on the 21st C one it just looks more reallistic. Also bbi doesn't have windows and the super humvee desn't stay together very well if you were going to be handling it. Just my cents on them.
