Hummer H1 as a civilian model.

They do have the snap kit of a 4dr soft top model, but it would be cool to have a full detail kit that could be built in any of the 4 configurations.

Tamiya is making a 1/10th scale RC kit of my 1:1 truck, the Toyota FJ Cruiser. I'm getting it for sure.

I'd like to see them make 1/24th styrene kits as well. I'd build a few of them, one just like my truck and a few optioned out.

Is there a Toyota FJ cruiser kit in 1/24th ? I feel like Ive seen one but maybe it was a R/C car

Jada made a 1/24ish diecast:

The list is long, but here is what I have built.

A semi-replica of my 1:1 Willys Overland pickup on a Blazer frame. For this one, I modified a die-cast cab and cast it out of resin and scratch built most of the rest of it.

A CJ-7:

An early Blazer:

A CJ-2A:

A C-101 Jeepster Commando with later TJ front clip:

And a couple of future projects include a stretched cab Willys and a Club Cab Willys…somewhere down the line.?

Ordered the conversion parts from Texas 3D to make a copy of a Baja style type 1 I had years ago. As for a 4-wheel drive I would like to see someone offer a kit of the JL Wrangler. Until recently we owned a JK Wrangler and did get to enjoy off-roading with it. Personally, I'm partial to the two-door body style as it is more maneuverable in tight places off road. The four-door body is a bigger seller since it is easier to put the whole family in. The new Pick-Up body is really popular in our area, but for off road they are not as maneuverable either. All that said I think any of these would be a good seller. Future pick Up kits should be offered as either a 4X4 or a 2X4. Everyone is excited about the new Round 2 Ford Broncho which leads me to believe that there would be a market for any of these other kits as well.

This is what I am currently working on. It will be on the Lindberg F-150 4X4 chassis, engine, and drivetrain - modified to fit. I have a set of 20" tires I got from ebay and a set of Aoshima wheels that are close to the ones on my 1:1 2022 F-150. I am considering labeling it as a F-125 since it is half F-100 and half F-150.  I am a bit farther long than the picture shows, hopefully this afternoon I can get some primer on the body to see where I am.
