Here is the 2-man add-on set to the M198 release.

The second picture shows both sets together completing the theme.

Its a very nice detailed set but, as I have little interest in modern warfare stuff I will pass this one over.

Carlos mate,
Once again you are putting temptation in my path. Fantastic set. I think with the removal of the USMC from the side (no offence to any retired or serving members) that it would look good as part of an Aussie Battery.
Will also have to check this beast out in Chicago.

Question? I ventured off and tried a new theatre of collecting on and entirely new scale 1/32 (typically 1/30 collector). I bought this piece and was amazed at the detail however one thing bothered me the front wheels never touch the ground. In the Figarti stock photo it appears that they do but mine is so far off it kinda looks awkward. I'm not an expert with this particular artillery piece but is it normal for the gun to be raised off the ground on a stabilizer when firing? Even if I set it up as a tow package the wheels are still way off base???? Anyone else have this problem. As soon as my cameras batteries are charged I will post some pictures.

That's a great question Sahara.

I'll be getting mine soon and I would like to know too. Try PM'ing Rick Wang (RWFigarti) here on the Forum.

Here are a couple of pictures. I'll snap a couple more if I have time later.
 
This really is a fantastically detailed gun set. Love the gunner pulling the lanyard. -- Al

Hi Sahara,

The wheels not touching the ground was done intentionally to reflect the gun firing. Here are some photos showing actual firing. This particular set was not intended as a static set or tow set, rather an action set. sorry to confuse and we should have described the set better.
