Hi guys - I am looking to add a SPARK roller to my 1/35th scale Kinetic MaxxPRO build. Legend has ones for the M923, RG31 and HUMVEE and Blast has one for the HUMVEE and the Stryker, but no one seems to have a SPARK for the MaxxPro. Has anyone converted one of these for their MRAP or have any advice on which of the SPARK kits to get?

Thanks for the help!
Mike

Check out Jim Wechsler's build log for inspiration

You want to get the Blast M-ATV Mine Roller set. It is the same type used on Maxx-Pros as well.

Thanks for that link! I actually competed against Jim on the southern California model contest circuit. His stuff is really really good!

Thanks Gino. Unfortunately that Blast roller is OOP.

I think I am going to try to use the Legend Spark for the HUMVEE. It basically looks like a two truck assembly instead of a three.



I found a few pictures of the MaxxPro with this version as well. We'll see how this goes!



Thanks again!
Mike

It seems there are two ways for mounting the mine roller wheels ?
