Saw this flatbed at target this morning and bought one. Hadn't seen them before. Not a Johnny, but makes a nice item to sit a johnny on. Thought it was diecast. Its not. Plastic base and body. The truck is weighted so package feels like diecast.







Check out your dollar stores and liquidator places. Maisto has a line of cheap but realistic 1/64 trucks with trailers that you can find in those kinds of places. The car-carrier version is a Mercedes COE. There's bulk fuel and other trailer versions pulled by conventionals too.69Stang said:Well, I will go against the tide on this one. It's ugly! Why make something out of scale and "almost" right, when you can just as easily make one "right"! That just drives me nuts! Just make it scale and correct looking form the start. Maisto has the tallent, we've seen it! Oh well, I'll be the odd man out on this one! :freak:
