It appears I have the Australian version.

All easy enough, apart from doing my usual trick of installing the diff the wrong way round - make sure you double check, as a pain to disassemble and fix!

Im a bit disappointed that I havent seen many of these models built yet!!!

Where are you lot hiding? Have you built it? Is it any good? What have you managed to shovel around the house?

Ive not had the time to get mine out yet

[Vixpy1]

Mine is sitting on top of The Supercar, A Tamiya Hotshot, The container lorry, the Mini and probably some other stuff.

Need more time!

I'm just the same,just finished the VW Camper and Mini and on with some of the street builds at the moment with the Tower Bridge waiting...! But what I can't understand is why all this collection is 16+ when all Technic is 10/11 to 16.....! and no +...? not as though it's a problem because I will keep building what ever it says on the box.....,

Built mine, its sitting on the shelf in the play room! Not put any batteries in though so dont know how good it is!

Was a nice build, nothing really new or taxing but good fun

I haven't built mine yet, although I have built my Pickup Truck that I ordered at the same time. I enjoyed it, and think its a nice model. It looks better with the 4x4 Crawler wheels on though.

Mine is my birthday present, which is September, but even then it will probably stay in the box until the weather turns crud

I've spent a while trying to load the unimog with detergent capsules. I think I need to find something more resistant.

Ah nice to hear some of you have built them up! I'm waiting until the evenings darken up a bit - have to make the most of the light whilst it's still hanging on!

Might steal a bulldozer or pick up truck to do beforehand though, shouldn't take more than an evening or two.

Unimog! I wish I kept one, had hundreds through our doors and always wanted to put one aside but I just never got round to it!

Going to jump on jadlam payday and sneak into the house for the annual Xmas day afternoon surprise for myself. Would not be the same without empire strikes back on in the back ground and a jumbo technic build to focus on in the holiday.

Let construction begin

[Podie]

Finally sat down this afternoon.

2 pieces missing, but it's complete.

..hopefully it'll be worth something in a bit, probably not though as the market will be saturated because of these pesky PH group buys,lol!

I just picked up a Unimog on Fleabay for £124. The problem is that the fun police may take action unless I can sell the crane to make room / cash.
