I'm looking for a model of my Jeep Cherokee. Preferably scale 1:18 but I would consider anything.

anybody any ideas where to look. Tried several hobby/model sites but so far no luck.

Sorry dude, they never made a scale model of the XJ. Matchbox/Hot Wheels did a 89'-96', but I haven't seen one in a while. Proline has a 1/10th R/C body, also a 89'-96', that can be built on a scaler chassis. There was a 1/43rd scale diecast made by an overseas company, but it is but ugly, and expensive. It barley looks like an XJ. For some reason the model companies showed the Grand some love, but the more poular Xj got left in the cold. If Proline ever does a 1/18th body, it could be combined with a diecast chassis to get a decent model, but until then...........

 

Thanks,
Jeroen

 

there is one other toy cherokee if you can find it ,it came from the first land of the lost tv seris around 1990,you will have to use the body on a rc chassi

 

check this one somebody built

 

Just plain awesome!

 

Where can i buy one lol!!!

 

That is incorrect... A Japanese firm did make a plastic model kit of a XJ in 1:18th(or 1:25th, can't remember now) scale. They come up for sale one Ebay ever so rarely often.

 

I know this is a dead thread but i stumbled upon this:

I know its not the size that was requested but still an awesome looking toy. Looks like it will be available later this summer.

 

no its not dead im working on a 1/64 scale build crossing a 2dr xj with a swamp monster 4wd van...

 

That is cool!
I want one.

 

never found one yet.

 

You guys are going to want to check out http://www.scaleoffroad.de/

They are a bit expensive, but it is an amazing re-production of the body. Absolutely beautiful.
