Pissed with receiving models falling apart in their package: Go WSI Parts... Whatever

"/>

Sincerely that's a sad thing that what used to be top notch company is going down with QC issues. But my decision to go with WSI parts now is just personal as I prefer to build their trucks and it allows for easier customization than breaking apart a completed one.

Project is a MAN TGX XXL in Mammoet livery, but in it's latest generation. I wonder how close those from Mammoet will look once they get some....

I am very satisfied with the final job. I will post better and closer pictures later. The "Dio at night" pictures do no good to details.

WSI parts always come bare die cast. My cab is WSI # 10-1015. As you will see, the upper part is exactly the same (except the holes on the top) but the bottom is different behind, and where the fenders are located. I would't recomment this one. But they must have those for the Titans, just check.

Another cool option about WSI parts is that they allow for optionnal components: here you can put this set of spoilers and swap between a V8 engine or a inline 6. But the tool box is custom (actually steel block that I made and painted). I keep those unglued as I like to change the option according to the trailers used or dio scenes.
