I too have painted Matchbox Xterras to match mine. Although I pulled the wheels off of a green dune buggy looking thing from Matchbox and glued them on instead. Kinda like a monster X.

Well I finally contacted the seller on Ebay asking when/if they could obtain more of these Xterras. Turns out they're not factory paint jobs... " The variations are only available because we produce them ourselves using mint condition models and then re-liverying each one. You effectively get a "one off" model because we don't usually produce more than one of each type." Some more: Brent

It's funny, I see a lot of different type of Xterra models. But does anyone have just a simple regular silver one without any crazy add ons?
What about Revell, can we build one?

Take a matchbox and paint it yourself like the red one above, or like I did... Xterras so far are only available in Matchbox or by radio control...

Hehe, what does a good matchbox paintjob cost? Can you get undercoating?? Somebody with a small machine shop should start making tiny winch bumpers!

Tazmanian Devil (Looney Tunes 5-pack, only seen at K-Mart so far - there's a different Looney pack everywhere else)

I've only found the white beach Patrol and the blue with red Kayaks "MHC outfitters". Actually, I've only seen the one white one, mine, and a couple other blue ones. Looking for another one without Kayaks for a project. Failing that I'll have to make do.

So I was gettin' some stuff at Walmart when I decide... ehh.. maybe today is the day when I'll find an Xterra that I don't have... Whaddayaknow!!?!?! I guess it is available outside of Kmart! My collection is nearly complete, I think. I am a nerd.
