Default body wishlist

If this isn't allowed, I'm sorry.
If there is another body interest thread, please direct me to it.

Has anyone started one before? Just a list of bodies that they would like to see made, what format, an honest answer on the probability of them purchasing it if it were made. Just in hopes that a Proline or Parma employee has been drinking and looking for the next body to produce, stumbles across it, and sees interest from enough people that they think they might make a profit. Or maybe someone else has seen that model before and can direct the wishful person in the right direction.

Just a couple of examples of my current searches and bodies I'd like to see...

body: Checker Cab
scale: 1:10
style: short course truck or touring/drift car
probability of purchase: <$50 = 100%


body: 93 bronco
scale 1:10
style: short course truck
probability of purchase: <$40=100%


body: Mater
scale: 1:10
style: touring/drift or scaler
probability of purchase: Low if clear, maybe up to $25 if prepainted/rusted.

Pro Line makes a great example of the bronco. I would have one already if I didn't have to use the screw on extended body posts. I had a set on my stampede 4x4 for almost one pack before 3 of the 4 of them stripped and I lost the posts and caps.

I'd love to see some 80's-90's American Muscle to fit on touring chassis (IROC Camaro, Foxbody Mustang, Grand National,etc.)

I'd like to see some of the older Dodge pickup models. 80's and 90's in particular.

Someone actually makes that model bronco, and it's on ebay. The grill needs a Lil work. But with some body filler and sanding you could make it nice. That's the fun part!

Here's the link

A 190mm version of my wife's 2015 Prius C. That car has some pretty aggressive lines for a hybrid. It would be nice to display them together at car shows. Even if it were the JDM Toyota Aqua version I'd be okay with that. Plus it would make wheel shopping for the 1:1 easier (I really want to see what a set if Bronze TE37's would look like).

I don't understand how it's 2016 and there isn't a single viable Jeep CJ option out there. You're only options are to get luck and find a Pro-Line, Pay $400+ for the parts and build one of the ones from Italy, or build from scratch. It's crazy!

I would love to see more options to replace the Honcho body that are old in nature like an old toyota fj45, or even a jeep cab. Even old chevy or ford cabs would be fun to paint and scale up. Just the cab , or with separate bed so they could be used on a truggy without cutting the lexan up and then rebuilding the back panel. Almost cut up my Nukizer body, but after paying so much for it I did not want to screw it up .
