BTR-80 - 1999 diecast 1:72 model (Amercom CS-41)

Not your fault this was on my 10 yr old grandson's Christmas list. He thought it would be bigger. I guess the picture on the Web Site made him think that. I felt bad as I guess he thought it would drive around with his other army tanks. I did not send it back because I had to send another item back that he thought the same thing. I lost $$ on that one which I did write Amazon a letter as I replaced the item with a bigger one so I really feel I should not have had to pay the money to send it back. Waiting to hear from them. I guess I shouldn't hold my breath. It is a shame though this happened twice when he was making his Christmas Wish list he is only 10 he didn't see or look for measurements somehow Amazon should let the kids know how big the item is in a different way. Say decription small not to be played with or large enough to play with. Just a suggestion.

Das Modell von Easy Model ist viel besser detailliert und bemalt, jedoch nicht Metall. Vor allem die Felgen der Räder sind ein Witz: Null Details!

I bought this to incorporate it into my model and its great! It comes in a plastic box and is screwed on to the base- plate. I just unscrewed it. It was a little smaller than I was expecting but its still highly detailed and a great piece of Russian armor. The turret moves 360 and the gun moves up and down but I wouldn't do it that much (it's very fragile) and the wheels are fixed too.The top is metal with a plastic undercarriage. So it's not so much a toy as it is a model but I look forward to my next Amer_com vehicle! Great job on replication! I'd recommend getting the American MRLS to go along with it.

Excellent model and at a great price.

excellent addition to my collection
