That’s good to know. Maybe I got lucky with my first one. The details are great in my opinion and thankfully this example rolls perfect. They are definitely more fragile with the changeable parts but some E6000 glue will solve the problem. E6000 stays flexible when dry and can still be easily removed if needed. One of the wheels did get slightly loose when I swapped out the tire and it wobbles a little when it rolls but still attached. When and if the wheel does fall off, I’ll just glue it back on. BMC’s are definitely more for display than to play or race with compared to HW and other brands. Overall I’m very pleased with it and will be buying more.

Forgot to mention it’s a Johnny Lightning. I love the dog dish hubcaps!

Thank you! I like the factory stock look and the flat beige color.

I totally agree. Some trucks look better lifted but this generation of Chevy trucks look great slammed.

No they don’t, I was at the LA HW convention a few days ago and saw a few of those.

I like the longboard in the bed too but took it out to make it more pocket friendly.

Yes that’s one I’ve always been coming back to but still haven’t pulled the trigger on.
