Nice tip about the price and good video about the "newer version" of the Roc hobby/FMS jeep. I like the re-paints and upgrades people have been doing to these. I think a big part of the problem with getting figures to sit in these properly is that the seats are way too high. In a real WWII era jeep the top of the seat cushion is almost even with the cut outs on the sides where you get in and out. On this model the seats are on top of the battery box which causes them to be quite a bit higher. Also the windshield is far too tall. It looks silly to me when it is in the upright position, it looks better folded down but still pretty off. Of course if you reduced the height of the windshield the figures would be looking over the top of it instead of through it unless the seats are lowered as well. I'm not trying to put it down. I think it's a great model. Just wondered if anyone has taken the effort to make it more accurate?
