This is a slight downgrade from the earlier Jeep Wrangler set to me. I like the little details like plaid seats, a rubber duck, and surf board, but the suspension looks awkward and out of proportion and they should have used Bronco tires instead. It would have been nice if they made more use of those tiny new suspension links introduced in the Bronco set though I'm puzzled why they don't make a 1:12 or 1:10 Jeep or Bronco set at this point. This is coming from someone firmly based in the USA, but both vehicles are much more popular here than the G500, and I feel like the Jeep could be even more successful than that Ford Raptor model from long ago.

1:10 Porsche 992 GT3 RS

Model looks really nice, I like really like the details and GT3 looks great in stone grey. Kinda funny to think that it's been almost 10 years since LEGO's original GT3 set and the 911 platform is still one of the most popular cars to make MOCs from.- 5 replies

I like the concept and was thinking of doing this myself for a Bronco or Landcruiser eventually. I have a few suggestions: Given that it's such a large scale, you might want to try using a bunch of angled connectors or some flex cables to make the wheel arches. Raptor arches are massive and can fit the whole wheel. It would be cool to see a front suspension setup where the springs/ coilovers connect to the lower control arm as opposed to the uppers. Most people don't do this in their models for good reasons, but it's always nice to see some realism when it comes to mechanisms in models. Overall, it looks like a really nice model so far. Do you have any pictures of the rear axle?
