Biante 4WD

[blazer]

Hi all,
Just wondering if anyone out there is into 4WD. I see Biante makes some 4WD. I would like to see them manufacture a Nissan Patrol TUrbo Diesel. If you have a 4WD what kind is it.

Thanks Blazer

Bring on a ' 81 Bronco XLT plus the '96 Bronco XLT model aswell.

Don't Bore it Just Big Block it....

I can't believe with its popularity here in Australia and in the US that there isn't any 1:18 diecast FJ40 Toyota Landcruisers. I think this is one of the coolest looking 4WDs, SWB with the top off, jacked up with massive tyres. My Dad just finished rebuilding from scratch and it is awesome to say the least, better than factory.

Or Brock's 98 round Oz Jackaroo or maybe even a 2 set with Garlands HRT lookalike 98 round oz winner.
I'd do 2 sets in all scales.

The FJ40 has been made about 9 years ago in 1:18th..3 colours.
Probably sold so few it was not worth persisting.
Also 1994 Landcruisers were made..same thing.
Nissan patrol was made in 92 in 1:24th..faded away.
Model cars that sell are "emotional" and "dream" type cars.
The average hack will not sell.
Just think for example how many Hondas real cars there are...models??? ONE..NSX.
Sorry about that guys. Even all the current 4WD models sell in the hundreds, not inthe tens of thousands as needed to make it worthwhile.

Yes I definately agree with you SWRT,, I would love to have the Brock OZ Jackaroo, it would be a very welcomed change to the Brock collection... Please Admin.. :rolleyes:

I got a Landcruiser Prado, wouldn't mind seeing one of those in 1.18

[Glen Alexander]

Hey Admin, what was the brand that made the FJ40? I'd like to try and track one down if it is possible.

i dug up this old thread because i see biante are distributing in 1:43 the nisssan Xtrail of j-collection.....gee i even see they make a mazda MPV, how exciting........
how about a nissan patrol TI, are we gunna get one, they make far less desirable units in my opinion.

wouldnt mind tracking one (fj40 model) down either My dad had one for work which I helped rebuild with a 454 Chev in it

This may be a real no brainer, but has AutoArt ever made an F100/150/250/350 in various versions eg tray, well body, canopy etc?
