That looks great :D

I also see you didn’t have to hollow out the top to fit a figure. On the 21st Century Toys Kubelwagen, I had to hollow out Picklehaube’s too so I could fit a couple of the smaller XD figures... Do they sit lower in the Minichamps Kubelwagon?

In my Kuebel the driver figure is sitting much deaper because he is sitting without a seat :wink:
With that I do not need to work to much on Matthews top.
And if there is a second figure sitting on the right side in the front section of the Kuebel you wouldn´t recognize the missing seats. Figures are much too big for both kuebels to fit as drivers.
