I'm working on a (big) News Report on Vajra Miniature at the moment - including this and the Boxer, so stay tuned!

Looks awesome. Let me know if they send a review sample. I would be very interested in reviewing it.

Having done my own F-450 - I'd give this two thumbs up from what I can see here! Nice job!

so.... how much might this kit cost ? .
next to the figure the truck looks really low. my friend has a f-350 and my head comes up to the middle of the window , im 5'8"
i think the suspension needs to be higher for an f-350 ,also the rear suspension needs a helper spring
what does it look like with a figure in it ?
the steering wheel is a it too high
just nit picking , i still want one .

Agreed, when I inspected the F-450, I was amazed that I couldn't see over the Hood of the Truck. I stand 6-feet tall, and I know the suspension was beefed-up for the "Bloommobile" - but not so much that it was an appreciable deviation from a stock F-450 sitting ext to it.

The steering column is probably in its highest position, and the seats are aftermarket lo-pro Recaros. Regardless, its gonna be available in resin form, and I want one.

It does look low and the wheels look like low-rider street tires; too small and wide. It would look better with some bigger, more aggressive off-road tires.
It would be cool to build something like these with it.

I'm not sure what truck they used as a model, but the ones that you see in use here in the states sit a lot higher. The factory trucks almost always have larger diameter rims. The suspension looks compressed too. My cousin has the same truck (without the gun turrets) and I cannot see the top of the roof when standing next to it. I'm 6ft tall. To me the truck looks like an F250 - even those usually have larger rims. All that being said, I would still like to buy one.

This looks nicer than some 1/25 scale kits.

Not knowing much about this truck, the front axle/suspension/tie rod look different than most other trucks I've seen. It looks "generic". Could this possibly be a copy of one of those 1/32 die cast trucks? Might explain the simplification of the underpinnings...
Just a thought.
