    From the anime series "Mobile Police Patlabor" comes a rerelease of the 1/60 plastic model set of the Type 98 Special Command Vehicle & Type 99 Special Labor Carrier! This is the first plastic model kit of the Labor Carrier since the end of the anime's original broadcast run.

    - Under careful supervision of designer Shoji Kawamori, the construction of the vehicles has been updated to appear more modern and more detail has been added in, making for a definitive edition of the two vehicles!
    - Vehicles are an impressive size at 290mm in length. Each wheel is connected with a metal shaft and can be rotated. Tires are made of rubber. The siren light and windows are made with transparent/translucent parts.

    A command vehicle is included in the set, an indispensable item for creating scenes of Special Vehicle Section 2!

    Runners are colored to match different colors of the vehicles, and pre-painted parts and decals are included too, so all it takes is a simple assembly to recreate the robots from the series.

      looks great but has a few BIG design flaws

      as this was my first hand experience with Good SMILE Company and this line of Patlabor mobile police i didn't know what to expect. first off im no stranger to building gunpla, i've got a few HG models of various Gundams as well as an RG, an MG and my crowning jewel, a PG exia with the LED upgrade. all this to say that im not a novice builder, surely not the best but i know how to put together these models.

      PRO's of the Type 98 and Type 99 are the overall aesthetic of this labor carrier which looks pretty neat. along with the fact that its got a few poseable and moveable parts to it. which i find adds to any kits ability to become more then just plastic in different colors and weird shapes.

      now for the CON's and oh my... let me tell your there are some big ones that i wasn't expecting.

      first off the overall color of the "white" parts is no where near white. most of the primary colors are black and more of a raw plastic gray primer color. which means there's not even different colored ABS for things like the catwalks that are on the trailer as well as the yellow boats on the clamping arms inside the trailer. it needs to be painted if you want it to look more like a model and less of a toy.

      secondly there a few small and fragile parts to it that were, 1 hard to place and, 2 kinda flimsy. for example on the Type 98 command vehicle i broke one of the side view mirrors completely just by trying to place it as well as damaging the other mirror slightly. another…
