Not a whole lot going on with Schuco for Septemeber, in 1:18 and 1:43 scale we have five new additions. The feature finds the VW T1b Renntransporter “Continental Motors” from their 1:18 scale Pro Resin series. Looks pretty decent until you see the half-ass job on the rear storage/tool area. Also, price about $200 CND.

That’s not the rear storage/tool area; that’s the incredibly bad attempt at making an engine compartment view. Why they didn’t make a simple engine cover panel is beyond me. Do it accurately or don’t do it at all.
If that’s the case, that is the worst attempt in resin history at motor detail. Definitely, cover all the way!
