I got 3 of those 1/87 scale trucks - they are really small and expensive too!
I wanted to try it out but after seeing how samll these things really are - it kinda seemed abit impossible to do all those tiny parts and make it work so well. I think when i get a chance i'll use a ZZMT or a reg. ZZ and use customize it for the Hazzardous material truck - that one is part diecast and plastic so it should pretty durable. The one thing i won't try is doing all those lights and stuff - it's friggin increbible how those guys can get all the lights and signal to work on those things.
I'll eventually try to make one of these when I get some cash - i need atleast the front and rear axles plus the tires inorder for me to try and make this happen.
