I wish Matchbox to make truck based on this Motorhome, so I can place car in there. This Motorhome have some furniture inside wich block my car from getting in. Of course I alway can make a conversion :)

I'd like one that could be used for 28mm to accompany this:

Maybe the scale of the car is off, but the truck in the first pic looks just a little too big. Regardless, you're correct that the matchbox motor home (and many other matchbox trucks) are great for 15mm.

Also, it's definitely time for a conversion! If you have a dremel it's not hard to grind out the rivets on the bottom of matchbox/hotwheels cars, then they just fall apart and you can do whatever you want to them

Are you sure that's a shot of a real, full sized vehicle?

I suspect it's a larger model truck grin
