Very interesting....I wonder how to scale it is? Something I doubt we will ever see in 1/18 scale from bbi, AT, or 21st.

Cool find...

Very cool. Crappy pictures though.

Hey Spud,
Cool find the pics are crapy though . I wonder if this was his intention . To hide something?

Hey Spikemaster

That was what I was thinking, even the crapiest phone cameras do a better job than the pictures this guy has put up, even the latest image that he posted with the figure for a size comparison is equally as fuzzy, or maybe he just forgot to clean the lens or it’s a manual focus camera and his eyesight is a little off, ah now I just making excuses form him.............

the thing i don't like about it is the seller says he couldn't find enough wheels to finish off the trailer, but that whoever buys it should be able to get them at a local hobby shop...

??

If they're that easy to find why didn't he get them to finish off the model properly?

I can see it being pretty tricky to find matching wheels, personally...

I agree with Aferg. Not only did the fuzzy pics turn me off but the comment about how he couldn't get the rear wheels but the buyer should easily find the wheels...WTF ??????

I'll just skip it. One questionmark in a deal is risky, two questionmsarks is sure a deal killer.

After my first (and I hope, last) sour deal with a member of this board, I'm just very leary of any but a face to face deal........so if the deal turns sour, at least then I can "reach out and touch" the offender, instead of waiting six weeks for PayPal to refund my money.

I guess every family has at least one dirtbag hiding in the shadows....

TTT

Here I am wasting all my money buying a good camera and taking clear pictures for my Ebay auctions when I could use the free camera that came in my box of Lucky charms cereal to take professional pics like this guy.

I love the part about the missing wheels, he couldn't find any but you should have no problems! I wouldn't touch this auction with the proverbial ten foot pole.

Did any one email this guy?

I did and got him to post the picture with the figure just to see if it is anywhere near scale.

If you're a stickler for true scale I believe it's slightly bigger than 1/18 from what I can tell referencing it to pictures of a real one. Using the figure as a standard six foot person to compare dimensions of a real one, the fender above the wheels should come to around chest level. Other than maybe the tires used being too big, can't really tell how the rest of it measures up.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong with my calculations........

I seen a real one today when I went to take my Driver license test , ok I forgot about renewing it and it back in December. Any ways the South Dakota national guard is in the same building as the South Dakota department of transportation is and they had a few of them out there , but I did not notice how tall the tires were, I can go back and check it out tomorrow.

Here's a website with some good pictures of the HEMTT:

It has some pictures of the South Dakota National Gaurd doing refueling operations.

The pic's are cool

That would be a cool looking vehicle in 1/18th. Maybe someday......
