This offering from ICM arrives in the usual fashion of a flip top cardboard tray with a separate card lid, which provided substantial protection for the contents provided. Inside is a single plastic bag containing all of the model parts, with things like the clear sprues inside another bag in that bag. The decal sheet is packaged inside the instruction booklet which is loose inside the box. An examination of the contents reveals no obvious issues with the parts. Access for removal of parts is generally good, although the gate are a little larger than I would like and will make removing some of the finer mouldings more difficult than it needed to be. 

This offering from ICM builds up from a pre-moulded chassis, with a reasonable level of detail to it. The suspension is fixed, and will not be easy to modify without a lot of cutting and shutting. The wheel alignment is fixed also, which many of you know is a pet peeve of mine. A reasonable engine and gearbox is provided as regards being viewed from below. The suspension springs will require some careful clean up to hide the joints. The tyres while having good tread detail are vinyl rubber, which I am aware is a pet hate of many, and the wheels themselves also have good face detail. The engine bay walls are provided within the kit, but there is no real point as you cannot expose it due to the top of the engine and gearbox is missing. There are some interior details within the engine bay that you are to add and so I can only presume that ICM intends to cover the engine bay further in future releases. 

Moving to the cab of the model, reasonable floor detail has been provided but as with the previous release the seat adjuster mechanisms have been obscured. The seats in the vehicle are not provided with any harness detail, the dashboard of the model is a more pleasing aspect with a good number of decals provided and a clear plan for locating them is also present. There are also decals on the front window frame, but I do not know what these represent. The wipers for the windows are provided as separate parts, which I like. I also like that the main cab body of the vehicle minus the hood can be assembled off of the model and despite when it is shown to be added to the chassis I believe could be left until the end and after painting. 

Moving to the exterior of the vehicle and the 2 grilles on the hood are separate items, as are the lights and should look the part. Shackles are such that are on the vehicle are acceptable detail wise, but only one of the shackle types can be shown loaded. The frame of the cargo area looks good to me, and I do not think that anybody will have any complaints in that regard. I am pleased to see that the covers for the rear foot wells have been included as it is a detail that could have easily been missed. 

The figures are typical ICM meaning pretty good being cleanly moulded and well proportioned. The details is an area that is hard to fault as uniform is provided by many sauces and so details from Russian to NATO armies kit should all be usable here. The hand and facial detail meets muster and do not need an real attention beyond seam lines. A great selection of personal weapons are included only needing the modeller to create slings for them.
