My model is one of the releases from several years ago and still amounts to a great model to build. Mine was straight from the box with a few added details but I kept with the original to a large degree. There were no difficulties in the building of the kit and mine came with a driver and standing figure. The parts were all clear of dye marks or extra plastic and the assembly was not complicated. Details were well brought out and the vehicle could be placed in almost any diorama setting.
