technical pickup truck online at Target

[rds13601]

When online and searched for Bravo Team figs at Target.com undeneath was a remote conrolled technical truck in white. It can be ordered only online. Here is the link for it http://www.target.com/p/Medal-of-Ho...=Rec|pdp|13460236|ClickCP|item_page.adjacency

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

That's pretty cool. I wonder how strong the motor is on that? That could be sweet with some ghetto camo pattern and a few Prince of Persia figures.

 

[K-Tiger]

I'm keeping my eye out for a good 1:18 pickup in-stores so I can do a good technical.

The gunner on that one looks like a drawing.

I saw this at TRU before Christmas...it is very small.

 

[Rick]

Yeah, they are tiny.

I need a good technical and a Landcruiser. Silver or two toned like Fleds. I wish there were Tacomas available like at BJ's (similar to Costco).

 

[Dropshipbob]

Someone on the tank made a technical for their Drednoks, looked pretty nice but I forget what they used.

 

[rds13601]

How tiny?

 

[Dropshipbob]

If it's the one I think it is, 1:32 scale...about right for little green army men.

I got some of the Chap Mei ones and they are decent. You see them occasionally on e bay.

 

[K-Tiger]

I think I can manage better than Chap Mei.

 

[MAJOR BLOOD]

The ones I got are actually not too bad. The scale is good and a little paint and they are decent. I'll have to dig them out and look how the scale is with figures. They fit in the cabin nicely.

 

[K-Tiger]

I know there's a 1:18 pickup out there somewhere. Hell the gun is the hard part.

 

[Dropshipbob]

How about that Bass Pro series of trucks Wal-Mart carries?

 

[K-Tiger]

Those would probably work.

I used a FOV M2 for mine, but a 1/18 DShK would be sweet.

 

[Dropshipbob]

Does a technical carry a specific weapon? I thought they were equipped with whatever...M60, recoiless, rocket launcher, etc.?

 

[K-Tiger]

Mostly DShK(M)s, but I've more ambition that that, and want to do a anti-aircraft gun.

Hell, I've heard of them mounting Russian aircraft rocket pods.


an M2 would just be half-hearted.

Here are some images of weaponary off of some technicals: https://www.google.com/search?q=tec...0QGBhsXeCw&sqi=2&ved=0CDkQsAQ&biw=992&bih=539

A bit of google-age gives me these:

http://interactivetoy.com/IATC1011/home/medalofhonor.html

Kinda cool they have a T-54/55 (unless I counted the wheels wrong and it's a T-62).

 

[Fled74]

True, but anything else would look huge on a Schleich SUV (stretched though it may be).

A couple of Russian UB-32 rocket pods would look cool too.

 

[thelegoguy]

I think I saw a pic of someone making that MXS pickup from TRU into a technical. I found the link from TRU's site for the truck:

I get what'cher sayin', but I gotta save my M2 for a Huey mount.

This is what I came up w/ from that MXS off-road truck...

I remember that one. Badass custom!

 

[Fled74]

With a little work, this one might do.

Change the wheels, cut the roof and spoiler off, and mount a recoilless rifle or similar, and you'll have a technical to be proud of.

 

[PFunk]

Here's you a truck.

I customized one for my son, it's not a bad rig.

Playmobil are at least a full inch shorter than Joes, so you're gonna have some cab work to do, as well.

You are correct. I'm planning to get one anyway, to see just how much modification is needed.
I was thinking about making it into a vehicle that's seen a lot of action. Dented and rusted panels, no roof or windscreen, dodgy welded rollbar and grill guard, etc...

See, I get over-excited about stuff.

 

[K-Tiger]

There's an SUV in the new Secret Agent line that might work, too.

 

[darthdre758]

Bruder has a vast selection of different real world vehicles that are just a tad to big for Joe scale...but might work in a pinch.

The Bruder ones are huge.. and the 1:18 diecasts are usually too small for figures.. need PTE to do a nice pickup.

 

[WildBill]

That green defender with the closed back is awesome! Where does one buy these Bruder vehicles. I did not see an option on the site.

 

[NSA]

Look for stores that carry Farm Toys.. thats usually where you can find them, or Amazon.com.

But they are 1/16th scale.. lets see if I can find one of my comparison pictures..

Makes Joes look like midgets.
