I built this about a year and a half maybe 2 whole years ago in pandemic time. Either way, ITS A BEAUTIFUL KIT!!! SO MUCH DETAIL. So many detail parts instead of molded in stuff. Ive seen on your shelf in the background for quite awhile now, been waiting for you to acknowledge it LMFAO. I LOVED LOVED LOVED LOVED BUILDING THIS KIT. I did some custom stuff, made it look like its been used OFF THE TRAIL. Gave it some gear and gas tanks on the rood rack. I had another wheel that was damn near a perfect match so I could have a full wheel and tire spare and then i had a "broken" wheel up there as well. ANYWHO, I FREAKINN' LOVE THIS KIT AND HAD SUCH A GOOD TIME WITH IT. I hope you build it soon, CANT WAIT TO SEE WHAT MY HONEST TO GOODNESS LEGIT FAVORITE UA-cam SCALE MODEL BUILDER HAS TO SAY ABOUT AND WHAT HE CAN DO WITH, SUCH A GOOD KIT! 🚙
I built this kit when it released, and it is absolutely outstanding!! Definitely one of the best Revell Germany kits that I have ever built. I won best in class in the offroad vehicle category its first time out for this year's show season. The only downside to it is the hood has a hard time shutting completely flush. To fix that you have to file down some material on the two hinges. Be sure to do this before starting the build in general just to get it out of the way. Also, have a paint conversion chart ready if you do not use Revell paints.
It's a really nice kit - made one myself in 2020. Some early boxings have a mistake with some of the left/right hand drive gear stick placement so check your instructions. I moved the spare to the bonnet/hood on mine as that seemed more like the Land Rovers I've seen.
the effort here is just incredible. I mean, the instruction book scares me already! every detail is so carefully and beautifully put together🥰thank you so much for the work!
The molding looks great on this kit. Nice to see pimples and all you pointed out. I have one in my stash, so it was nice to see what is in the box. Thanks for sharing.
The double roof is called a Safari top, stops it getting as hot inside. The car should have ribs front to back really. Look forward to seeing what you magic up. Could do a stage 1 V8 model but that's about it.
Does it come with a centre grill headlight panel or just the ones in the wings? I would like to build a replica of the one used in The Italian Job sometime and would like to know before splashing the cash. Cheers
Made this kit last year, but having seen your unboxing, makes me want to build it again! A lovely kit to build, look forward to seeing your interpretation! Don't quite understand the difference between the two kit variants sold though, any thoughts?
My wife bought me this kit last Christmas and I would like to make a diorama using it. my intention is to have it on an uneven surface, outside an African medical centre as a visiting Doctors vehicle. What, after market, parts are available and where can I get them?

I'm finishing up the Revell VW T1 bus, and about half way through their 911 Carrera 3.2, both are suuuuper nice detailed kits.

@sohchx, which paint conversion chart would you recommend, i've search a long time by the Internet, and didn't find a good one.
At 2.58 is the transferbox. That is for the 4 wheel-drive Tom. Nice good detailed kit.

What a coincidence, a week ago I started building this model. Your knowledge will bring me great quality to it. Thank you very much for your videos.
Wow. What a kit. I am impressed by the cleanliness on the parts. Brilliant.
Really looking forward to this build.
Nice unboxing. Thanks for reminding me I have one to build. 🐭👍
the effort here is just incredible. I mean, the instruction book scares me already! every detail is so carefully and beautifully put together🥰thank you so much for the work!
This is one unboxing I really hope gets built. Love Land Rover Defenders.
Can't wait for this one, I have one in my closet. 😆 🤣

Nice unboxing, like always from you Tom. Land Rover looks great too, looks like Revell made a good job on this one. Thanks for the share.
Lol, thats funny, pre-dented 🤣
Nice! You have totally got to weather this kit out, dust the windows, and add gear to the stowage rack :-)
That needs to be modified into a Pro-Street car !!

Grazie. Ottimo video
I'd love a nice Land Rover kit to make a Camel Trophy Truck.
One part you were pointing to looks like a power brake booster
Put the tire on the hood and hide the imperfections 😆 🤣
Roll over series relaesed is the best one
thumbs Up number 201, very cool kit nice❤ cheers KC Cradle Mountain Tasmania Australia 🇦🇺🇦🇺🤝😎👍
Does it come with a centre grill headlight panel or just the ones in the wings? I would like to build a replica of the one used in The Italian Job sometime and would like to know before splashing the cash. Cheers
If the part was not shown in the video. It is not included in the kit.
I am pretty sure its not
Very good

You mean the US and Germany kit? Pretty sure they are identical apart from the box and maybe decal sheet
Build it, we will come. 😆 🤣

I’m only aware of C1 models, doing a couple sets. Check them out on instagram
This is so best
Great
👍👍👍
❤️❤️❤️
If I were to build a Land Rover from this era, I would have to make it look like "the Anti-christ" from "THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY".
