I got it half price at a closing down sale. It actually comes with these figures. I may save those guys for something else, though!

Is the chassis one piece or multi-part?

Paul, the chassis was the usual ICM jigsaw puzzle. Typical ICM also, the join line. Going to need some sanding.

Boots will need some of these continental tyres for his lamberts.
