Review Summary

The reviews highlight a mix of satisfaction and challenges with this kit, noting its detailed and realistic design, multiple customization options like exhaust and fuel tank choices, and nostalgic appeal for many builders. However, common criticisms include issues with part fit, excessive flash needing trimming, unclear instructions, brittle plastic, and difficulties with specific components like hood hinges. While some find it a fun and rewarding build, others caution that it may be too complex for beginners due to the intricate assembly and frequent need for adjustments.

Mack R685

By: ptcheshire (ptcheshire@juno.com)

Nice to see a few options included. Two exhaust choices, a stack or under truck and two fuel tank options of square or round. The rear wheels are retooled and a lot nicer than earlier issues. Nice to see the Matlack and Bard graphics too. Minus I would have liked to see the Alcoa wheels included, but not a big issue really. One thing I like personally is the bumper, fuel tanks, exhaust stack and a few other parts are NOT plated. That IMO opens up more options for the overall look.

Cool old Mack

By: slatermichael0 (Galesburg,MI)

Its a good kit a lot of fun to build. I added some extra options from an accessory kit to mine. Pretty challenging for the most part not good for a beginner. Very detailed and very realistic looking replica. However some of the instructions are not clear as to what part goes where and some parts look nothing like what is pictured. The only thing I don't like is the hood hinges very difficult to put on and cannot get mine to stay on the grille or attach to the frame and make the good line up right So I made my own out of 3/16 brass rod.
