No fewer that sixteen variants are offered on the decal sheet for Jade’s well cast kit of the BRM. Most are works cars but we do see a little variation in colour with the cars of Hans Hermann and Stirling Moss. The main castings for the body, chassis, wheels and exhaust are all very clean and will require minimal clean-up for paint. The rest of the kit is typical Jade with neat fold up suspension, a few small ancillary parts and instructions which include some general assembly photos and race images of all of the options. From these we see that the decal placement and general detailing on the hand builts is pretty accurate but we do have queries on the colours. BRM green is always a tricky colour and Jade’s shade is close, but the Moss cars should be in a pale Linden green as we saw on the proto-build images, but the models in our delivery and on the assembly sheet are a bright apple green.
