A simple look at the back of any real one would silence the critics! You were right!

@mrrockfink1745 10 ай бұрын

The earlier FJ40 had the upper hatch with the small split doors below. Newer ones had the full split rear doors and upgraded rear lights. This FMS missed a few things, the windshield "catches" on the hood are missing, the antenna is in the foot vent, and the rear side marker lights should be red. I had a brand new FJ40 in 1978... absolutely loved it!

@ateaserc 10 ай бұрын

Love that you are enjoying the FJ. You will love it on leaf springs. Single leaf front and main and long in the rear worked out great for me. The shocks don’t hold oil btw.

When you get to episode 69 you’ll have to be working on the sand scorcher and Capra for sure! And try not to do too many innuendos along with it…😂 and that Land Cruiser is pretty cool too! I’ve got an old proline bushwacker body (before they got the license if you don’t know, it’s pretty sweet!) on an scx10 i cobbled together, complete with a chassis from an scx10 that had been run over by a 1:1, i call it my salvage title truck! 😂😂

I have waaaaaay tooo many Hot wheels and Matchbox cars. The FMS FJ-40 is awesome. Upgrades: RAW 500 servo, big bore shocks 65mm, Mytrickrc headlights, tail lights, 2 light bars and flood lights. New wheels, new receiver and tons of 3d printed 1/6 (1/7) scale accessories. Headlight bulb removal takes a lighter, a scraper, a drill for 5mm bulbs and bulb backing to screw them in.

(1:54) ...Maybe the "not-so-strong" magnets are intentional to allow for the "sah-weet" body/s to "give" upon even light- impact, so the fragile components, like your resin-wing/spoiler, has a better chance of not getting broke or "totalled". 🤔 For a crawler, or trailtruck, I would definetly want/need stronger magnets, but of course ultimately this depends upon application, as we all know, by experience !! 😉...👌✌️

My dad had a '77 Land Cruiser, it had barn doors, pretty sure that wasn't exclusive to Japan, living in Southern California, same place he bought it from. I had to get this one when i saw it, i got the blue one, same colors as dad's '77. The only thing that bummed me out was the back end having the short doors and hatch, especially since it's always popping open! Lol

(HPI) "Cup Racer" RTR, but I'm not sure that HPI will bring this one "back". 🤔...!!??? ...But it would be stellar if they did !!!! 😀🤞 - I do like FMS's new FJ40, looks pretty darn good !!!

I was thinking at taking my first crack at weathering on this truck as well. Will you be using the same method you used on the Landrover? Or the oilbrushers?

Wheel and tire choice is an automatic plus for this. Tires are spot on, imo. I assume you're not going for the stock pizza cutters on steels with moon hubcaps look. Good. What leaf spring setup are you going to use? RC4WD? Boom Racing? What's the shock length? Keeping it scale with Bilsteins-ish ones? It will be cool to watch this one over time.

The only or first thing I want to change on the FMS fj40 is to move the front axle forward just a little because it’s supposed to be. The only real one that has the axle where it is on the FMS model is the Icon fj and Toyota’s version looks better. Matchbox’s FJ40 does it right btw. I’d also want a little bit of a lift. Idk what I’d specifically need to get to make it happen much less whet it would cost tho.
