Heroics and Ros G088 BMW + sidecar

Here I look at the BMW with sidecar pack from H&R. As always the models are presented as I received them.

BMW R75

Contents

The pack contains two identical motorcycles with sidecar (only one of them is shown in the picture).

Each model has a soldier driving the motorcycle and a passenger in the sidecar manning an MG.

Scale

As can be seen in the picture, the motorcycle driver is significantly smaller than other infantry models I have reviewed so far. Placed directly next to other models, they look like children. They are so small in fact, that I'm not sure I will be using them at all in my games, not even on bases with no other infantry. They just look off.

Casting

I received three of these packs, for a total of 6 motorcycles. On 4 of these, the driver i missing most of his left arm. Other than that the casting is well done, with almost no cleaning required.

Overall impression

These models are priced at £0.40 for two models, this comes out to £0.20 per motorcycle. Considering how small they are, this is very strange. This is the first pack from H&R that I would not recommend. Indeed I will not be ordering more of these motorcycles myself.
