These were found this past week in Batch L. Still working out the kinks in my new background/lighting setup, so excuse the slightly dark pics. Still no sign of the Caddy ambulance or the Baja like truck.

Both of these do have working suspensions! :thumbup:

Thanks to old442dude I was able to acquire the Sahara Survivor, but still no signs of the rest of Batch L here yet! These are awesome- as word I never thought I would use on generics. But the Saharah Survivor is obviously Land Rover based and the Jungle Crawler is a Power Wagon. I'm not even sure its been disguised (for licensing purposes) so much as its modified for serious off road duty.

Thanks for the pics, still look better then mine. :)

It seems if I don't make my pics a little dark, the color gets washed out
or I get some bad hot spots.

I like that Jungle Crawler, have to keep an eye out for it ...

New casting?? Quick! Take it apart!
I bought these because of what Crafty said---I found them realistic enough looking because they stole the look of a few actual vehicles. I DIDN'T know they had working suspensions!! They may need a test run on Ivan TT's desert track!! :P
I did manage to find the Baja type truck and ambulance. All 4 castings are excellent, as expected.

CRAFY- your photos are just fine. Thanks.

I used to be a genius, but I found out it's a lot less work and more fun to be a redneck.

I haven't seen either of these castings yet either... I must say Matchbox is really stepping up to the plate in the last couple years!
