    I don’t recall you showing your collection displayed, I think lots of us would really love to see it all together and on display. Thanks for all the great work I have really enjoyed you content over the years.

      I'm in the process of putting my display area together. Its won't be very extensive. Eventually it will be done and I'll share everything. Even NIB items I have.

    That is one excellent truck! I've never seen one of these before, and to see one in mint condition is quite a treat. I bet you had to sell a kidney for it, lol! Great video, pal!

    • @RCRetro

      LOL for what I paid, yeah pretty close to a kidney...probably one of the top 5 most expensive in my collection.

    Looks great, will be a nice shelf queen. You are correct, the Rock'n City (44B) was the first belt driven buggy and was also the first 4x4 buggy so Hirobo had a couple of milestones there. I'm in the process I finishing my Rock'n Vega restoration after restoring the chassis 3 years ago😂. I figure 2024 is it's 40 year anniversary year so I better get on it. 😁👍

    • @RCRetro
      @RCRetro  7 місяців тому +1

      Thanks for confirming that. Yes I've seen either on here or instagram that you're in the process of painting or have just finished. I was quickly scrolling on IG and I saw a red, white and blue body. I"m assuming that the body for your Hirobo. Either way its looks Sweet!

    • @RCHobbyShed
      @RCHobbyShed 7 місяців тому

      ​@@RCRetro No probs at all! Yeah that body is for my Rock'n Vega, going for box art. Been putting off this paint job for ages because there's so much in it. Thanks Ari! 🙂👍

  • @pwalthuis
    @pwalthuis 8 місяців тому +1

    That's one awesome looking rc. For the lights, maybe cut some circles from some leftovers from a body, put the stickers on that and then on the body with some blutack or double sided tape?

    • @RCRetro
      @RCRetro  7 місяців тому

      Thats a good idea. Thanks. I will consider that.

    That truck looks the business. I have to say though those stickers down the side make me sweat a little just looking at them! You did a great job with them though they look perfect.

    It looks great! I could tell by looking at it that the stickers were going to be a challenge!! It will look great in the collection and I don't blame you for not putting the side mirrors one, they look like they just want to snap off if you looked at them cross!

  • @Pablo668

    Very nice result. I hate putting on decals at the best of times, let alone the challenge this body represents.
    Pointless Trivia: In an Australian comedy/caper film 'Malcolm' depicts a bank robbery pulled of by the protagonists using three of those trucks. In the first minutes of the film there is a Tamiya Sand Scorcher as well.

    Be interesting to measure the wheelbase between that and say a Lunchbox... That really does look 1/12th

    I think I hated mechanical speed controls before there were even any other options… they must have done something to me. Super interesting truck. I wonder what the wheelbase is compared the the actual Hilux, because I agree, looks closer to 1/12.
