Sahara Jeep out.

Post by Threetoughtrucks » Thu Sep 08, 2005 5:53 am

Our friends at eBay have listed a 1/6 Sahara Jeeps with two figures that are suposed to be the two male stars of the picture. Of course the Jeep is not the Jeep in the movie (age of vehicle off by 50 years) but who is gonna notice???... except us......right. :)

Can the 1/18 Sahara line be far behind? I'd certinaly be in line for the M-48. I'd sure love to see a M-48 in 1/6 but I'd gladly settle for 1/18, since the 1/6 will never happen...that's like waiting for an Avenger :roll:

I saw this at Wal Mart a few weeks ago. It looked pretty nice and the figures were cool. There was only one (along with the 1:6 Kettenrad). I went back into the store a few days later and they were gone.

I could sure use one of those 1:18 jeeps! It looks like a cool paint job

I saw the 1/6 Sahara jeep at a Walmart last week, looked alright. Vehicles at that scale look too toy-like imo.

Opinions vary, I find nothing at all "toy-like" about a 1/6 WSC or CC. The 21C 1/6 vehicles are ALL well made and detailed. There are minor scale differences between 21C and the exact 1/6 scale but the quality of the product easily overlooks minor problems with the scale and small errors in the product. We can overlook errors like the Kettengrad rear rails being backwards or take them apart and fix them. :)

"Toy-like" - no. :?
