Well after much anticapation, and a little worry, my VEH 001 Stug arrived Monday afternoon, the worry part is to say when you invest a good chunk of money into a product that you have never seen or touched in person is a little bit of a blind leap of faith even after alot of reviews, so with that being said, here is my review.

after opening and carefully unwrapping I sat with my VEH 001 for about 2 hours and just admired this wonderful tank!!! of course being my first First Legion vehicle I was curious aout the non-polystone material, since that is all I ever had was polystone, but once I held the tank the weight was a non-issue, the detail and sturdiness of the tank are second to none, the painting is perfect, as well as all the smaller detail, love my recognition flag!!! also love the two crewmen as well.

We all have our favorites on the forum, lots of manufacturers to choose from, but in the end you collect what you think is the best out there, I mean were spending good coin on whatever we buy, and when I came aboard with First Legion back in February I was kinda like am I making the right choice?? a little more exspensive, but I went with what looked to me to be the most authentic and realistic WWII thing going, so I am glad I listened to myself:), First Legion WWII is absolutely unreal, already looking forward to my next vehicle as well as some more infantry.

to the staff at First Legion, please keep up the great work, with the same quality and craftmenship, and thanks again for making this hobby a even more joy to be in...Sammy
 
Seems to me you like it! We are fortunate to have so many great choices in this hobby.
 
sammy, nice to know that you're pleased with your purchase.

does this means you'll proceed with veh002, or veh003?:)
 
Congratulations Sammy ;) It's always nice to be very Happy with your purchase . To me there is nothing worse then buying something mail order only to be disappointed when you open it and find that it didn't live up to your expectations . As for your change in collecting preference , I don't know of anyone who hasn't owned at least something from your previous favorite company . For me in the past when I collected the big guys before First Legion arrived it was more of being excited about the topic of what I was buying more so then the quality of the products then available ( Aoroart , Kolobob , Nevskaya miniatura .ect.. are excluded of course from this statement ) Now with First Legion we are fortunate to have both the quality we wont and topics that we find appealing :) ( well at least some of us ) . First Legion is a young company and still just getting rolling, but with each no line more and more collectors are seeing just what we have been missing . First Legion IMO have taken the mass produced figures and vehicles coming out of China to the next level . Like you I have never been disappointed with my choice to start with First Legion and I'm not looking back :) Happy collecting Gebhard
 
Congratulations Sammy. It is always a pleasure to hear from folks so happy with their new items. I never thought you would be disappointed with your choice but I am pleased you listened to yourself; I think it is always good to do that. Best wishes with your next choices.:cool:
