There are so many 1/24 variations from makers like Jada, Maisto etc. Yet I cannot find a straight out commercial vehicle with prominent real replica colorful product and business graphics.

A VW van/pick up combo huh? I like it in silver. Pretty radical with tubbed-out rear, slammed and prerequisite dubs, opening features - NICE!

@modeldadeeee I like it too but the only filter I have is that a model must be original. Jada offers some very nice models at an attractive price but I just can't get past the modifications. I guess that's what makes us all different.

@bob-jackman I prefer oem, but as I have gotten older I realize I need to be flexible.

Ben you need to get one of these if you don't have one.  They are available at most Walmarts, I guess.  My local has like 8 of them in different variations.

@geno thank you kindly, our local Walmart did not have what I was looking for. Ebay had options but at a higher price point.😞
