Re: Most Difficult Bruder Vehicles to Convert?

How does it stretch them? Does it just warp the plastic?

Most Difficult Bruder Vehicles to Convert?

In your opinion, what would be the most difficult Bruder to convert? I'd assume a basic dump truck would be the easiest. Are wheels any easier to work with than treads? Are loaders more complicated...

Re: Beginners Guide to buying and building you first truck.

What is meant by "Truck kit of choice?"

Does it mean like a plastic RC truck or a model etc.?

Re: New to this, How expensive is this hobby?

What about things like excavators? And can kits be pre-made or are they generally built from scratch?
