Joe Handley Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Our club project for ‘24 is that everyone has to build the 2nd Gen Ford Raptor snap kit from Revell, is there anything aftermarket available for these? I know it’s a snapper, but that chassis plate thoroughly lacking here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaina Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 I can 3d print a wide body kit for that model. Not my pic but this is what it would look like. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The target market with this particular kit is not us adult builders, it is the young kid who thinks the truck is cool or who has a relative that drives one and wants a replica. That said, haven't compared the earlier kit with this one to see if it could be kit bashed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That truck looks like the underside of a Coinbank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure this was meant to be an easy to build snap kit for Ford to run their version of the Make and Take on the Auto Show circuit. I bought the 1st Gen kit a couple weeks ago and it’s got the more typical detail for one of the Revell snap kits, Edited March 18 by Joe Handley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That said, if you get the more recent release in the flat Revell of Germany style box, it has a killer set of Cartograf decals that really make it look great - both inside and out.
