I'm new to this whole 1:18 scale thing and have seen many of the XD items, but I ran across a "motorworks" version of a razor back jug, can anyone tell me something about the "motorworks" line? Is the detail on the same level as the XD?

TIA

Welcome Killer!!!
The Motorworks line is just reboxed XD items.. For about a year or so, the 21st stuff was all reboxed and sold under Motorworks at Walmart..

The vehichles are the exact same thing, however the Motorworks figures that came with them are not that great at all.

Roger that! Motorworks is a private label name that is owned by WM. Back when 21st was just entering WM distribution they were required to strip the 21st name and brand.

Eventually WM realized that XD and 21st were strong brands and the Motorworks wrappers were no more.

you forgot to mention the Motorworks Tiger, M2 Bradley and Sherman, and the M113 had diecast metal hulls, where as the XD did not.

The XD re issue of the M-48 Patton this year has the metal hull.
