The Black dog resin is hard and light weight and may be molded in any color. My examples are green, light grey and dark grey. I have as yet to see any tan colored resin as the company portraits on their box tops. They seem to have also switched from a large box, 4 inches by 4 inches to a slightly smaller end-opening box that measures 4 inches by 3 inches.

This 17 piece set for the LAV series is molded in green and has plenty of detail. I cut them off of their casting blocks for picture clarity. The parts were cut off with a razor saw when it was deemed and just cut with my sprue cutters other times. The razor saw had no difficulty in cutting the resin and the parts sanded down quickly with a coarse Squadron sanding stick. The tire is molded on both sides, and the piles of equipment would look great in the bed of a truck such as Academy's M35 cargo truck, or even sitting on the ground.
