Hi all.

Hobbyco in Sydney have got the standard 1:72 scale mini sets (rally and normal) but i haven't seen the pickup/van set.

I can't find it anywhere online either.

Anyone know where I can get a set?

Have you got both of the race/rally sets as well, they are similar but there are two versions . I haven't seen the 6 pack of vans anywhere either .

I'm not trying to complete a collection but i have a particular project in mind that i might need the vans/travellers for.

For that project i'm interested in repainting these little models - is there a best way to do this?

Considering their small size, i'd imagine it's pretty tricky avoiding paint blobs and I can just see a world of pain in trying to mask the other parts if i wanted to try spraying - any tips or tricks???

I've only ever repainted 1:26 scale models before with varying success.

I've had both the rally sets but they're all mixed up and all over the house now.

As for the van set, I wonder if i imported a carton of (48 of them) if they'd sell here...

There are at least 2 different sets of 1:72 vans, 1 with 1 pick-up in 5 vans (of wich 1 or 2 with windows, the other pannelvans), the other set with 2 pick-ups and obviously 4 vans. I might have some left for sale, should I check that (it can take a week before I get there).

They're not heavy so postage from Belgium-Europe shouldn't be excessive.
