The Hobby Boss kit, which retails in the UK at around £110.00 arrives in a fairly monster box of some 23” x 13”. It is packed, & I do mean ‘packed’ with a total of no less than 32 sand coloured, letter coded sprues, a further 3 clear sprues, vinyl suspension air bags, 31 vinyl tyres, various pipes, springs & cordage for hydraulic piping, air hoses & winch ropes & finally no fewer than 12 superb photo-etch brass frets. The instructions stretch over 47 pages with a total of 53 sections. With thirty exploded diagrams for the HET & a further twenty three for the trailer, the instructions are very good & clearly drawn , but there is a lot to concentrate on to avoid mistakes. An additional full colour painting & decal placement instruction is also provided. The parts themselves are very crisp & cleanly moulded, as you might expect from a new release kit & all are individually numbered obviously. What IS impressive is that when two sprues are placed in a bag together there is a layer of sponge foam padding between them & wrapped around all the more delicate items. 11 out of 10 for packaging then! Interestingly, I note the word OSHKOSH is perfectly moulded into the hood of the kit & yet on the box art picture hood it is written as C8KHQ8H ?
