HMMWVs in Scale: http://www.hmmwvinscale.com/. Scale modeling site dedicated to modern US wheeled vehicles, with lots of photos and references.
This is looking much better. Good set of links to be starting with. Re the HMMWVs in Scale link: Two companies have announced MRAPs in 1:35. Panda and Kinetic, both new makers. I don’t think either is available in stores yet, but the CAD views are rather impressive. The two are different toolings, not just reboxed.
This thing is really looking good.
