This is a very strange kit, it has THE LONGEST axles on the planet, but that's probably because the overall wheelbase is wider than a generation 1 Hummer (before the H2) and stranger than an alien life form (ALF) dunebuggy.

There ain't much 'Moonscope' left in that kit... It's the Space 1999 Alien now. The Moonscope had six wheels and a rounded front end. I don't see Round 2 bothering to reverse retooling the kit back to what it was before MPC butchered it. That's not to say it can't be made into something worth looking at, it just won't be a "Moonscope".
