FT-86 Toys?

I've always wanted a XRunner Toy to go with my Truck. But it just doesn't exist lol. I know a few people who have modified Tacoma Models/Toys to look like an XRunner. But they don't make one.

So my question is, do you guys like Models/Toys based on the Car you own? Is it cool? Geeky? Stupid?

What kind of Models/Toys would you like to see? R/C Cars? Put together Models? Hot Wheels?

Model Cars are pretty cool, I have a Porsche 911 turbo and a lamborghini Countach, both were gifts. Usually people get exotic or halo cars in models

Ok. I wasn't sure if it was or not. Was it the same car model? Or a different version.

I have a few model cars, though none that match my real car. if you can't own a real one of something a model is the next best thing lol (like my 6 different supras, or Shelby gt Fastback, etc..) I like diecast models though the resin ones look good

It was same model. He had it pre-order it. I'm pretty sure some of the old member know what/who I'm talking bout... right? RIGHT?
