Correct me if I am wrong, because I don't feel like digging through the closet right now,it still looks like the same L.C.V.P. from long ago, BUT, with a bit of help it turns out real nice. Having the infantry to fill it is nice also but, the figures are too stiff to be riding in anything but the calmest of seas. Anyone who has watched the camera shots of the D-Day landings knows how rough the sea was that day and following. Now if you do a dio of them on the deck of the transport, waiting to climb down into the boat, great. A bit of work to change up the posses will dress up the figures (which look like a giant leap forward for Italeri) to keep them from looking the same. They look like they may be multi-posse after looking again. The pic's of the fgures look nice and well equiped, but I can't be sure if they have on the waist life belts or not, my eyes don't work as well anymore. All in all, a kit I will more than likely P/U for a future dio., depending on the price. For a repop(?) of years gone by and trying to get more bang for the buck, I'd say Italeri did a good job here. I will hopefully assume that the person who sculpts Italeri's figures will now be free to do the Vosper and 109 figures?
