I am in on that, i will have to do layaway with you but if you do it i will get one.
i figure that will cost 350-400?
anyway it is great to see a modern kit.
maybe i can put a red cross on it and some machine guns.

That would be awesome. I'd love to see one of these done in 1/18 scale..

That would be about right.
This thing is BIG lots of resin and a lot of parts. Heck those huge wheels will wiegh about a pound each. Unless I can try to make it hallow . Which is a lot of work to save on resin.
It will probably take me about 3 days to make the tire prototype

This may just be a dream but I would love to have one of these.
Either 1:1 or in 1/18th scale
Maybe someday I will have to make it.
MRAP M-ATV

Actually I think that if I were to make the MRAP m-ATV it would be about the same amount of work as the sdkfz 222.
Except for an interior.
So I am guessing about $250 for the M-ATV.
Maybe just a little more because of the interior.
I sold well over 30 of the 222's , but I am not sure if this will be as popular.

Hey Matt, I found this site:
http://detailedcraft.com/shop, they are 1/16 but it would be pretty easy to cast them. Pretty expensive though.
