The Official Unofficial Bronco Die-Cast and Collectibles thread

Is that a die cast? Or is that an RC? Can’t really tell on my phone.

Looks like the plastic one they sell at Cabelas.

EDIT:
Here it is.

Can't answer that but Tamiya announced their 2021 Bronco.

Oooh Tamiya they build a great model.

The Tamiya is an RC, not one of their model kits... they do make good quality RC cars in terms of detail and realism, but from a functionality standpoint, they're very toy-like, not hobby grade like the Traxxas is

I'm seriously considering picking up the Arrma Granite and the Proline 2021 Bronco body. I like the Traxxas. But it's more of a rock crawler. A rock crawler RC truck just doesn't seem like as much fun as a high speed monster truck.

I have a few Arrmas, they build a solid RC but Traxxas is well…Texas made and you can find parts everywhere. I have had issues with the front shocks on my typhon but never had any problems with any of my Traxxas. Your results may vary. I don’t think you can go wrong with either.

Traxxas uses too many proprietary parts. Which you know as well as I do means they can charge what they want. Yeah the parts are readily available. But at a cost.

Wanna buy a Tamiya CR-01 Bronco? $800
I bought a two of the CC-02 Broncos , one to build the other to speculate, they will increase in value like the CR-01.
Crawlers are great fun if you have the place to crawl, which I do.

All flatlands and fields here. Perfect for high speed running . Not so much for crawling.

New England has stone walls and stream beds all over. So I can run crawlers or high speed stuff.If I want to run fast I pull out one of y 1/5 scale trucks.

I like that Proline body... might need to get one for my brushless Traxxas slash 4wd (it's stupid fast)

Here is my collection of Gen1, alao have the Miatsu G6 on my desk at work and a RC truck someplace (??)

Its die cast. Steel body. I moved it around the old fashioned way...with my hand :)

Nice collections everyone! I've got a few of the 1:18 Maisto Bronco's and have been on the lookout for the Hot Wheels and Matchbox 6th Gen Broncos. My local stores stay sold out of Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars so I'll probably wind up ordering them online.

Just found this one at Walmart. Was going to pick it up since I haven't seen these there for a while. And I passed the first time.

That is until I saw this was the model with the optional ejector seat.

Hot Wheels '21 Bronco, stripped paint, cut top off, fabricated roll cage from coat hanger wire, added larger wheels/tires (Sasquatch package), painted Carbonized Gray.







Nylint Fire Chief Bronco, modified to R/C. Handmade interior, and roll cage. Shifter is a worn out Dremel bit.

Just showed up today. Bought it off eBay because I have not been able to find one.

Autozone had this one.
