There was a stand at SMW flogging these off for £20. I left it too late to get one dohh.

Hmm, not as good a bargain as I thought...
£20 for it at SMW, even I might have been tempted...and I don't build trucks...

Considering this kit is a re-pop (not a new kit by any means), it's not a good price really, although you're getting two kits in one, the truck and the Bro Wrecker, the £20 price tag at SMW was more realistic, try and find the original kit, it's just the same and I have seen it for under £20. Pity the new American wrecker promised by Italeri turns out to be this one with a new cab ...
So let's see ...
Scania T142 'Big Boy' Bro Wrecker (the 'Big Boy' bumper stencil on the rather large decal sheet supplied with this kit was considered to be offensive and was inked out during production) ... Why? Western Star 'Road Commander' Bro Wrecker Mercedes 'Bro' Wrecker' Scania T142 'Bro' Wrecker (same cab / chassis as the item shown in the original posting, different box art) LA Fire Department 'Bro' Wrecker
Come on Revell / Italeri, let's have a new tooling eh? ... and stop putting 'NEW' stickers in your catalogues, especially when it certainly isn't!
