Well I bought one. If you remember on the Forum some months ago, I bad mouthed this truck based solely on the price announced. I said there would be too much plastic, like First Gear and Tonkin trucks. Well, I must eat my words. This is a killer truck, solid as a rock. It rolls very smoothly. I love the wheels and tires. The headache rack seems to be metal. The hood opens to reveal a nice block. Great paint job and great detail It's well worth the price. I did not put the "Oversize Load" sign on top. I think that looks a little hokey. Overall, this is a great model for the money. I don't have a lowboy to go with it yet. I'm using other brands so far. It's also great to have another day cab. Ken Wheeler, get one of these if you haven't yet. Craig

Craig so is this your second time at being wrong?
What other trailers did you put your International under, and did they mate up nice to them?
I hope you are not wrong a third time because I would hate for you to east your words again, putz.

Yes they do. The pin slips up into the hole, but a slight tug backwards will pull the pin out. It will hold while rolling, if you don' roll too fast , like on carpet!!!

Craig, you don't need to be pushing those trucks around too fast anyway. You will were the knees out on your pants. Robert

Robert he wears a dress so he won’t wear any fabric out, however he may scratch the front of his red 6” pumps. No problem though because he has about 12 pair.

Gents,

I just received my Diecast Masters International/XL Specialized set and I fully support Craig's comments above: very nice overall combination!!!
