1/18th stryker?
has anyone converted the LAV to a stryker? I tried but could not get the RPG cage to look right, I tried plastic posts and wire rails but it never looked right. Has anyone in the custom business tried to make the cage???

Our good friend Jack Plonka from Skyworks Toys made a one-of-a-kind 1:18 Stryker that was done properly. While the LAV and Stryker share a lot of similarities, the two vehicles really can't be accurately converted into one another...

yes, they do look alot alike but are based on very different vehicles. For one thing the stryker is about 20% larger.
Bravo Team was supposed to have made one in 1/18 but cancelled it and came out with a crappy LAV instead. They made a poor copy of an already existing 1/18 vehicle instead of making something brand new and popular.
Sometimes i just don't understand these toy company execs....they are clued OUT.
