Toyish look, far from 21st quality. No interest for me.

Looks like the drivers head is an easy shot for a sniper... hell even a bird.

Haven't spotted one yet but it looks like it has potential to be a great looking piece. Needs some weathering and battle marks and should be good to go.

I would be interested to see what the underside of the vehicle looks like compared with the 21c offering ( I got so spoiled by the undersides of the Dodge trucks and Command Car). Bearing in mind that some of what is on the FOV halftrack seems more accurate (cut down in the side armor), how difficult would it be to craft a hybrid of parts of this iteration and those from the 21C version?

Thanks for the pics of the underside Sky Ray. Interesting. Has potential, I would say, especially as regards price and (hopefully) eventual availability.
Oh, and have a reflective Veterans Day- to all.

I finally broke down and bought a couple of these. I wa pleasantly surprised after I opened one up. Don't judge this too harshly until you see one out of the package.
