:thumbup: Good find max, there's not enough 1/16 accessories available I find, have to settle for 1/18 or 1/20 scales most of the time ,

Cheers, Lee.

Have a set on order now as well, I agree 1/16 is hard to come by so these I hope are nice.

I've been looking for these for a while now, I kept seeing reviews but couldn't find them for sale. These look like the late war style 200 liter drums and that's exactly what I'm trying to make out of PVC pipe with the photo etch end caps, so I'll definitely keep you guys posted and get lots of photos and video when they arrive. If they're nice enough I won't need to make them because I doubt I could make anything this cheap. Four drums and eight jerry cans for $22 delivered? Even without the jerry cans that would be $5.50 per drum. I doubt I can compete with that and that's good. I'd much rather buy them than make them! More time to spend detailing tanks!

I just checked the ebay site and now it says there are 2 available and they've sold 4 in the last 24 hours. I wonder if I should send them a message and say "You're welcome"? @) @)
