Mine shipped to me last Friday, so any day now! Can't wait. I need to redo the RAF display to make room for this baby.

I got it in Hong Kong shop
It is the most detailed K&C vehicle to date

I don't usually collect British stuff, unless it is to create a diorama with my Germans, but since I was a kid I have loved this blue and yellow blue truck. The K&C version is really great. I am debating about getting it. It would be great if they made a "liberated" German version to be used with the Afrika Korps.

Some great motivation to get that airfield diorama done! I hope you enjoy the pictures. I think that anyone who has ordered this vehicle will be impressed - I have been collecting K&C for 12 years and IMO it's one of the best sets yet....

JAMO, Good job posting the pics. The info concerning the handle with care part hopefully will prevent some fuel bowsers from getting damaged by their new owners !!!

Thanks for the pics!! That looks incredible, and the handle with care reminder is well appreciated. I am going to have a great week. Fuel Bowser here any day, and pharaoh head waiting at the post office for pickup (into ancient Egypt too now). Cleaning out the big display case and rearraning to make lots of room for Egypt and RAF (if the planes fit).

Do the fuel arms swing out to the side?

Just got the blue and yellow bowser a few minutes ago. While fuel trucks don't hold quite the excitement of a tank, this one is darned close. It is very detailed, well-painted, and one top-notch creation. I hope to get a few photos of my own up for viewing once I can put it with my other RAF pieces. I am moving things around as RAF and Egypt are now out of space. Personally, I think the RAF line was one of the best things to come along in a long time in the toy soldier realm, and this fuel truck makes for a colorful and very welcomed edition. It was not cheap, but it is a special piece and will be a real attention getter in my airfield (although when I showed it to my wife online last night - she said I hope that's not what you are getting!)
Great work K&C!!
