Any options for scale drivers out there?

Post by mikedealer »

i know they still sell the associated driver, but i was hoping for something more scale with facial features.

anyone know of any "available to order" drivers? tamiya? kyosho? just need the chest up & steering wheel, not a complete driver.

WWE wrestsling figures are about 1/10 scale, very realistic... maybe heavy though

the SRB driver is my favorite, and not that difficult to snap. You could also go for the Blackfoot/Monster Beetle one. Some repos pop up on the 'bay from time to time :wink:

You are quite mad, you know that. And by mad I mean "mad skills". Those are awesome. Got one painted up to show off?
He's an idiot. Comes from upbringing. His parents are probably idiots too.

No, I haven't got one painted up, my detailing skills aren't that good. I'll measure them up tomorrow.

Dimensions are
White one 1 3/4" wide by 3" long
Grey one is 2" wide by 3" long
Both come to 1 3/4" tall due to the grey figures head leaning forwards with the white one looking straight ahead.
