Hello from a frozen colonial across the puddle. That's a fine start toward addiction. I hope that for once I am not the only one who is clueless. When you wrote "p802, 804 & 805," I am seeing page numbers. Someone had better clue me in. :S

Welcome to the Forum :thumbup: :wave: :clap:
An interesting collection and one that gives you the opportunity to compare the less than perfect quality of Chinese model builds with the top notch quality of Chinese model builds,
I am of course comparing Heng Long and HG,
I also have a Heng Long Challenger as well as an HG 802 and an HG 803A and an HG 806, I like the Challenger but the HG Tipper (803A) and Articulated Tractor (802) and its Low Loader Trailer (806) are infinitely better in quality than either Heng Long or Taigen (I have that company's Abram) although in truth when one considers that the low loader trailer kit cost well over £400 I suppose you would expect it :haha: Details such as working indicators and working 5th wheel and 0n the trailer r/c ramps as standard and being made of metal and top quality abs in 1/12 scale there is scope for greater detail than in 1/16.
Enjoy this place and ask lots of questions.
I think I am about to upset someone :haha:
