I love your series of Toyota FJ's! Really amazing! I love these vehicles and your modelling skills are "doing them justice"!
It's a shame that no plastic producer has taken the opportunity to make a model of these unique but widely used vehicles. I have the Meng pickup trucks but this one would certainly be a nice addition.
For a couple of years now, I've been planning on doing things like this with Hobby Bosses Landrovers! I will certainly use your build as a guide! You make it look so easy to convert vehicles to have a special model probably no one else has!

Keep 'em coming!

Mark

thank you

I believe someone is going to make these in plastic soon

I have been in contact with several firms and they have expressed high interest in making these series

I am not sure which one is going to venture thru

also, I would like to see your land rover builds, one of my near future projects are a series of land rovers of different types

once again, thank you and I am glad you like the models

cheers top man
