Found out that there's a gap in my Jeep-collection, the 1984 -2001 XJ, the pretty boxy one.
So I thought to myself, hey, it was a popular model, so that should be easy to find in the nice 1:18-scale.
Guess what...that proved to be harder than I thought.
Any suggestions ?
Here's a nice picture of a really pretty one in the 1:1-scale.

Joop, 1/18 resin kits are available, in 2 & 4 door body styles, on eBay for $35, OTTO has sealed 1/18 diecast versions from $250, I believe some Asian manufacturers make one or two that are 1/18 "full function." Lastly, Small Ants sells a 1/18 "full function" diecast 1985 Jeep XJ for $75, but currently, they're out of stock.

A really popular vehicle in its day, these used to be everywhere, now only occasionally seen running the roads. A model in 1:43 scale would be welcomed.

@jcarnutz, I agree, and the permutations could be endless.
