Zil- 29061
« on: April 06, 2015, 02:04:39 AM »
Just came across this on evilbay. Might be of interest to someone planning an Arctic conflict.  I'm almost tempted myself.

Em dezembro de '81
Botou os ingleses na roda
3 a 0 no Liverpool
Ficou marcado na história
E no Rio não tem outro igual
Só o Flamengo é campeão mundial
E agora seu povo
Pede o mundo de novo

Oooh! Nice find Carlos. Almost has spy-fi or pulpy undertones as well.

Very nice die cast, if a bit pricey.

Tobsen77 does one in resin for gaming that I've long admired.

That's a nice one too Amalric. Much better price point as well.

Very nice, thanks for the links.
Cuprum, great video, that thing can go anywhere.  8) 8)
The part where the driver jumped into the waist deep snow showing its (the truck's) mobility is grand.

This is a real terrain vehicle. Used in Space Rescue Service - to search for cosmonauts which landed in hardly accessible areas, where can not go tracked vehicles.

In the video - a prototype.
