Drive it like you stole it!

Nice model, I have to say those are not the wheels I would expect on this one given its a police model. These are more upscale vs the industrial look on the real vehicle. |

Neat looking police bus. I have been admiring the TINY emergency vehicle models that others have posted in the Apparatus Forum and hope to add a few to my collection one of these days. This model is very well detailed - first look made me think of Tomica.

Awesome, thanks for posting the model, Dean! ![]() As zzziippyy pointed out, the wheels are a disadvantage on this model (and really throughout their lineup). This type of wheel are used throughout their whole lineup, from the fire truck to various police and civilian models. For the most part they are somewhat close to that of the real vehicles, in my opinion. |

I've yet to receive my ordered copy of this bus. But it will be here soon enough, and then I can check out that cool opening door for myself! The wheels don't bother me, and they remind me of the wheels on the Road Champs "Shock Racers" with the adjustable suspensions from around the turn of the century. |

You are very welcome, and I am pretty sure that you will be quite happy with the bus once you have it in hand! I also have two more variations of this bus- aiming to post those in the near future. |

Real sharp. Love cool buses like this. The roof lights are nice. This one has a lot going for it. |
