Louis:

Will you be able to send a picture of your SAS Jeep with KC Jeeps?

Thanks

Sure, if Brad will do the honors. I will take shots of it next to K&C's 1998 SAS jeep as well as a recent K&C jeep.

I e-mailed Brad six (6) photos to post, three comparing the Figarti SAS jeep to the 1998 K&C SAS Jeep and three comparing the Figarti jeep to the 2005 K&C "Santa" Jeep. As I think you will see, the 1998 SAS jeep is only slightly larger than the Figarti jeep (although the figure is a good bit larger than the Figarti figures), but the 2005 Santa jeep is noticeably larger than the Figarti Jeep. If you are going to display the Figarti Jeep with present K&C stuff, I would think it would need to be in the background.

I agree with Louis assessment.....Just got my SAS jeep and it is noticably smaller than current K/C jeeps. I was hoping for a Stuart vs Stuart or Tiger vs Tiger moment, but I am bummed out........Michael

Here they are, in two sets of three.

My own take on this is that this is compatible with the SAS Jeep, although not many of us have that, including me. As far as the Santa Jeep, I don't think we'll see Santa in the desert so I'm not sure a comparison is all that meaningful. I wonder if it's similar in size to the DD 13 or 14.

Moreover, you can see from the photos that the sculpting is really good overall, particularly the figures. I'm looking forward to picking mine up from George in late April.

Ruthless bunch, those SAS. Do anything for a crate of oranges.

I agree with Brad, the paint and detail on this look very good. Can't wait for mine to clear the UK Drop Test Customs office, so I can guage how much glue I need to get.

Brad:

Thanks for posting. A beautiful piece indeed. Even the shock absorber showing on the wheel well looks well sculpted.

The Figarti appears a bit smaller then the DD13 jeep and the two do not really fit togother.

Either he got coal in his stocking once to often, or Santa's sloppy organization delivered him 9mm ammo and a choo choo when his letter to Santa only asked for .45 caliber ammo and a dump truck.
