I have one of these, but I could never figure out why people said it was suitable for 28mm, as it looks more like 20mm at best. Turns out the one I have isn't the Disney one (I think it may be hotwheels) :?

Just ordered one of the "proper" ones from Amazon. They have gone up in price :( I went for the £19.99 one, however, rather than the £67.29 + £10.00 p&p one :o

And as read in another thread, now you have two identical ones...  lol
Miniatures you say? Well I too, like to live dangerously...

I think it was the hotwheels one that sits on my desk that made me think I didn't have the bigger one (although I now have no idea why I bothered to buy the hotwheels one o_o)

As I mentioned in the other thread, I keep a note of all hobby related purchases, so I'm more annoyed with myself that I didn't bother checking first. I blame Amazon and the fact there were only two left for rushing me lol

Great adaptation. The repaint and additions are very effective.

Thanks, chaps.
 :)

I am happy with the colour scheme as it actually looks better in proper light, so when it is finished I shall set up some proper lighting for it (hopefully!) when I take the finished shots.

I am now pretty keen to get the crew finished but am still undecided who the 'passenger' will be as I have a few options. I may add him or her later when I have decided.
Or maybe make it optional, who knows?
