the 5th tire. :D
In 2002, AMT released a 1/25 scale Willys Jeep, with decals from the show Hogan's Heroes. The kit comes with the parts for the spare wheel on the back, but only 4 tires... :redface:

Now Hasegawa has started a 1/24 "Military Vehicle" series... (FYI, most military stuff is in 1/35 scale...)

I see 5 tires in their parts layout... Wonder if they'll remember to put them in the box? :icon16:

Hasegawa includes the spare wheels. As for AMT, the jeep is a static model, and it does not move anyways, it does need any spare!:biggrin: :biggrin: :biggrin:

you can see the fifth wheel on their layout. Should be there if you buy it.
