My suggestion for the next body would be to do a SWB version that shows off the flexibility of the new platform. My top options from current licensing partners would be:
1. '21 Bronco 2-door
2. Early Bronco 2-door (similar detail to the Vaterra EB but with correct greenhouse proportions)
3. Jeep Scrambler

It would be great to add an opening hood (to show off the great work you did on the scale drivetrain layout and 3D engine bits) and removable top to the next release(s).

From a brand that you don't currently have, the two most obvious options would be Toyota and Land Rover. From Toyota, a well-executed FJ40 or FJ Cruiser should sell very well. (The Venture was doomed by lots of things other than the choice of the FJ Cruiser as its first and only body.) From Land Rover, the Defender 90 would probably sell well, but it has been done by others and lacks a bit of originality at this point. There hasn't been a good, mass market Disco. A well-executed 3-door Disco 1 or 2 would look great (esp. with the safari side windows and rear-mounted spare tire) and should sell well.

That's my .02, worth... .02.

18/19 Toyota Tacoma with the same level of detail as the new jlu would be sweet.


Also a true to life vintage Jeep Willy

Agreed.


Ford Courier like ProLine did years ago, but please make the bodies for 12.3" WB whenever possible even if it needs a little stretch. Some bodies won't look proper so do them at the appropriate wb.

Great suggestions!

Chevrolet Cameo (the special 55-57 Chevy think Bel-Air pickups) love those!

2. Dodge PowerWagon (Proline sold a LOT of these). If done with the detail of the SCX10 III JL it would sell like hotcakes I think. I could be wrong though too!



3. Jeep J Series Pickup

Is the licensing costs for current model vehicles way more than for classics? Personally, I like the Jeeps, 1st gen Bronco or 1st gen Land Cruiser.

Nice outside the box thinking, I like this!

Or even a bit older go back to 1961 and the 1950s please.

I think the first gen blazer would be cool with a removable top and cage.

Also along those lines first gen 66-77 Bronco which I’m a little biased on because I own one and my grandfather raced the one pictured. But like the old proline cgr with a cage and removable top would be awesome


Nice!

I’d love to see a short bed Chevy square body, like a 77 K10...

Honestly, the only similarity I see is the location of the front turn signals. That's not too say I don't like the Carisma...it's "interesting"...but, it doesn't have that 'Toyota' look. I like the (relatively) low motor, plus the fact that the Rx in inside a waterproof box (something Traxxas commonly does, but several others still don't).

Agree, my 1:1 daily driver is a 2-door Tahoe. I would love to make a 1/10 version.

I know it's not nearly as cool as that printed body (nor as big) but here's your 2 door Tahoe: https://parmapse.shptron.com/p/1-10-...ear-body?pp=15


When will that Econoline/Sportsmobile body be shipping Rich?

Between the 2dr and 4dr Tahoe, Suburban, and the C/K trucks of the same generation, I think that group of vehicles has touched the lives of many north Americans. With it's shorter wheelbase, and best in group departure angle, I think the 2dr Tahoe / Blazer Sport would represent the group well. I grew up in the back of a 92 2 door myself.

I very recently learned of that Parma body. I was all excited when I saw somebody post a picture of the new-in-bag body on facebook. However, I was very disappointed when I looked up the dimensions. It's definitely on the small side. It's not detailed enough for a class 0 build. I'm not sure a class 1 tire would even fit in the wheel wells though, so that definitely pushes you towards a monster truck style build, which is what the body is designed for.

Same here. There are a few people who want me to let them know if I ever decide to sell it.

Eventually, when I buy a new daily driver I’ll probably make it a project, maybe turn it into an overlander.

Maybe not something specific to a brand but how about doing some modular set ups. Example a 70s Chevy cab that you could separately buy your choice of long bed, short bed, stepside, flatbed, truggy cage.
I'd like to see these too.

Any COE cabs or something like a Tamiya Bullhead Peterbuilt i believe a Lexan version would be possible.

I see a Power wagon was posted but I’d love a newer power wagon body.

I’ve got an 18’ Mojave PW and being that it’s F&R solid axles with lockers it would match perfect.

I think my wife would even be on board with that build.
