same can be said about the german thingy they have the dingo or something.... the back car thing just playing mate

Any way two things

1 Found a UVmapper now

and

2 i added the step and added mud flaps

lol it does! Its good work tho!

A lego car that saves lives , but yeah looking great tonnie

Few last min tweaks (god i am good at that)

Added gun mounts from the Landrover (Are sized for the minimi atm but will do one to fit the MAG58 aswell)

That looks awesome Tonnie.

I remember watching 4 Corners (or might of been Sunday...) a few years ago when they were doing a segment on the Bushmaster after it was sold to the Dutch.

They were trying to sell it to the US as well at the time but they wouldn't buy it. It seemed as if they were just putting up with unsafe Humvees and a relatively small number of MRAPs until Gates accelerated MRAP production, instead of buying proven existing vehicles like the Bushmaster.

Poor Australian defense companies, even when they make something that works the US wants to just make their own. Probably more to do with the number they can produce and cost then nationalistic preference though.

I hope you remembered to fix the size of it.
Looks good other than that, nice work!

yeah its been resized....

I hope it isnt to late but how about some nice wire cutters:

Would they really be worth the tris, Glimmer? 99% of the time they are folded down in Afghanistan anyway.

hmmm it could be added but it would be folded down thats all. I will have to wait till i hear back from Rhino as his looking over the model atm to make sure its all good before its uvmapped, when i get it back and i fix any issues that there may be (and theres bound to be some ) i will look into adding the wire cutters.

EDIT:

oh [MPN]slouch2, check your pm's

Again looking very f***ing nice mate. Hope you modeled the A/C in that beast!

Maybe a couple of black berets strewn through the inside? haha.

The U.S. always mass produces products. I mean they got millions of those hummers that are like 1 mil each. Not including upgrades. Would be much cheaper to produce there own including the rights to it and have U.S. Factories produce them.

It's part of a national defence plan Just like with the M1A1, in times of crisis normal vehicle factories can be modified to mass produce military vehicles with relative ease.

National pride would no doubt have something to do with it as well. We did the same thing when Colt wouldn't let us make our own M16s, we bought the AUG and start making our own F88s.
