Bronco Toys, Diecast, RC

[daddycreswell]

Here is my Christmas haul, I've got to make room for the 3 big ones. I think I might take the big ones back and get me a real rc Bronco, although I'll probably never drive it.

I still need to find this... Targets around me have had empty pegs for hotwheels and matchbox lately.

The wife ran in Target the other night and they had one she said.

Can I send you the car and the paint I guess I can always try sanding and painting first and if that doesn’t look good, disassemble, strip, and paint. And if that doesn’t look good, buy the Area 51 one that silentd74 shared lol

This one started as a light blue Hot Wheels, I removed the roof, bent the roll cage out of coat hanger wire, painted it Carbonized Gray to match my 2022, and swapped the original wheels and tires for beadlocks and 35x12.50's.

I don't have that one, I'll have to be on the look out for it.

Traxxas did a decent job on Area 51 although I think its a shade dark. 4M Area51 looks almost identical to my custom paint mix so it works for me. I was disappointed by their "blue" not being Velocity Blue like their 10th scale one. So I already have a paintable body to make it accurate. Rumor has it Traxxas is going to have a 4M Bronco body in clear lexan too.

I got this paint for shackles. They make literally every color that Ford has if you are interested. Here is mine with them painted, not the best pic but in the sun light its exact.

Got the Hallmark ornament for Christmas, and finally found some Hot Wheels at Walmart yesterday. Has anyone yet made a list of all the colors Hot Wheels and Matchbox are doing? I found one AGM 2 door with a 1 on the door, and three red 2 doors.

Que all of the "are you sure it was AGM and not Area51" comments....

Had this A51 Bronco and some leftover Velocity Blue paint. Some sanding, a couple of coats of VB and a couple of coats of Clearcoat. Not perfect but ok to sit on a shelf

You need to add the matte black on the hood. I could send you a piece of vinyl if you want to trim it to shape.

agreed. I have some extra vinyl. Thanks! My Bronco is a Badlands so didnt come with the hood vinyl. Also, the Toy is a Badlands but I couldn’t figure out how to save the Badlands side decals or Bronco or Ford oval emblems on back. They were just too tiny and not actual stickers. I sanded and painted over. Fortunately I don’t care

It looks cool. The small details can be a real pain. I would have dabbed some wax on them with a tooth pick, but I also may have said f that lol.

Walmart's Adventure Force now has a 2 door... picked it up today. Detail is decent, but those wheels are horrible
