Good find! I'll probably pick this up.

I spy an interior. Existing Pro-line interior or 4-Runner specific? Inquiring minds want to know.

Nice to see more pictures.

I'll probably still get it, but I think the body could've been done a little better.

Proline interior is about an inch short for it. But I couldn't wait to paint mine lol

Sweet!
Something seems off about the crease on the front door though.
And, the rear needs more overhang lol its a huge characteristic of that generation surf/4runner. My buddy had one in high school and he used to throttle bounce the front off the ground because of all the crazy kids in back lol
But yeah, kudos to proline for more variety!!!!

I was thinking the same. Not sure why they added that body line in such a pronounced fashion. It should be more subtle.

The crease looks like a good place for painting your stripe if you go that route...

I like it! I'll probably end up getting it. Hopefully Knight Customs or RC Nerds come with a 3D grille and rear light buckets.

Re: Pro-Line 1991 4Runner
 
Here is a preview of what I found. Looks to be a promising body for printed parts. I think it depends on popularity of the body and how it coincides with the amount of quality parts that get made from different artist's.

The release of the very popular TRX-4 stole a lot of attention though. Hopefully it doesn't put a hold on parts for this nice Pro-Line body

That body line they added is horrendous...they shoulda look at the old Kyosho body

Re: Pro-Line 1991 4Runner
 
Don't like it. To narrow and it looks just wrong. Love the kyosho 4 runner, a exact copy of that would be awesome.

This body is horrible execution. ProLine is losing their edge.

The proportions look off and that flat front with a grill decal is lame. ProLine should take note from the Vaterra Blazer. Detailed grills should be an extra piece of plastic preferably chromed, hard plastic.

LSXGMC 06-15-2017 09:36 PM

Re: Pro-Line 1991 4Runner
 
Proline missed the mark on this one for sure, which is quite surprising considering they've been killing it in scale releases over the last while.

Re: Pro-Line 1991 4Runner
 
I preordered one. Not a huge fan of that body line in the front fender/door area. Looks more like the brand new 4Runner. Either way I was going to do the sr5 body but seen this come up. I like SUV's better on my crawlers [emoji6]

I agree that the body line they added is an odd one, and I wonder who at Toyota thought it was a good idea. Oh well. Still happy to have more TOYOYO options.

Your color and paint scheme seems to hide it well, I feel like it really is gonna depend on the color. The silver above really seems to show and emphasis it.

I agree though, the more Yota options the better "thumbsup"

A darker paint or multicolor paint job really makes this look better. Hoping proline does better next time.

I agree, the darker color does hide that body line pretty well. Nice color!

That blue looks awesome on that body.

I'd like to see what a set of 1.55's with 3.7-4.0 sized tires look like with one of these bodies.

That's the plan for this one. I've got some growlers going to put on it. I do want some 1.55 rock beasts though.

Not bad. Tell us how you did the rust.

VTHokie 07-16-2017 05:55 PM

Re: Pro-Line 1991 4Runner
 
I used some of this from Hobby Lobby. Paint on the iron paint in your desired location then spray it with the oxidizer. I put mine in a trash bag for a day or so and before you know you have rust. I also painted these bodies on the outside.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...21dc36ae96.jpg

VTH, had the best paint jobs I have seen on his second Gen Proline SR5 pickup. I'm certain his technique will spill over to the 4RNR"thumbsup"

Waiting for our LHS to get these. They do look a bit narrower than the stock SCX10-ii body. No rubbing issues?

I haven't run the truck yet but looks like I'll have slight run at full articulation in the rear. Front is just shy of rubbing.

Just looked at some 1:1 pics of them and while the line is definitely there on both the 4runner and pickups it is way less pronounced and doesn't curve down as much. I think the silver paint makes it even worse. It is much less noticeable in the later pics with other colors and graphics. I think I need to see one in person to make a final judgment.

Re: Pro-Line 1991 4Runner
 
I think what VTR did with the full length body stripes, seems to hide that line the best....
It's not a BAD body. In fact, it looks pretty good.
I almost think that Pro-Line was TRYING not to make it look too much like the old Kyosho body.
That body line IS a bit excessive, and the lack of recessed headlights - given today's technology, is a FAIL.

I HOPE that Pro-Line reads these......
