The "jeep" is our SF25-103 hoverjeep - comes as 103 with NAC crew, 103G
with generic crew and 103M with MP crew (the M version does not have the
gun mount). 4.95 UKP each.

No, it's a kitbash/scratchbuild by John Treadaway of the Warlords - hull
is
a 1/35 BMP3, turret is a 1/48 Merkava, plus lots of bits (some of the
GZG,
some others).

Well, that's what John and myself decided they should look like after
LOTS
of researching through the books and other sources (eg: the book covers,
the old Mayfair game etc etc)...  ;-)
