It's tough not to look @ FMS. You are correct in saying they have really stepped up their game the last couple years. Thanks for sharing all the details of this rig👍
Cool video thanks! I just ordered this from FMS on sale. First jeep so that’s exciting. And thank you for knowing what mashigan meant! I’m still thinking what color or to leave it the same. Look forward to rest of your video
The Mashigan looks awesome Fair RC had them just recently & was selling them for cheap they had 1:10 scale suprise boxes & a lot of them were Mashigans for a believe $250. I went to the FMS festival & they had one that was weathered & it looked like a real Jeep. I don’t know much about the performance I was just about to get one & found out the 1:10 scale Blazers were coming so I never did get one. Then a was going to get the Axail Jeep but it was out of stock forever so now if I can I’ll get the FMS Jeep. Hopefully you get it out & run it maybe you already did so I’ll check the older videos Thanks for the look at it.
The mashigan is pretty cool for sure! Which axial jeep is out of stock forever? Amain has them all in stock. And I have driven the mashigan for a week before tear down. Hopefully I will have it back together by tomorrow 🙏
I'm looking forward to this build, or rebuild... I think FMS builds their stuff intending on the buyer keeping the body, whereas many others expect you to ditch the body for something better or cooler because a clear mashigan body would be a dream, IMHO of course.
The 4.2 was just the earliest variation in the YJ, the 4.0 and 4.2 weren't offered later years only the 4.0 far as I know. Jeep guys are idiots I'll take my square headlights all day and I own 6 1:1s in everything I'll take my YJ all day. FMS did a great job its the size that puts people off, it put me off forever amd that was a mistake because I love this rig. If you want to convert that to a CJ front end I do believe Ive seen CJ grilles on Etsy for these. The mashigan would be early year YJ due to the roll bar being what us YJ guys consider the death bar roll bar lol!. They may have not blacked out the fender flare the Sierra models had painted to match body color fender flares. Great video man. Oh and the YJ was Jeeps first endeavor to try and modernize YJ AKA Yuppie Jeep 😂😂
Dodge probably had a bunch of blocks laying around and had to get rid of them!😁 I don't want to make it a cj that would have to be grill and hood, just painted up like mine! For us CJ people we just call it a roll bar🤣🤣🤣 there are a few things FMS could have done abit different to make it super scale, but iam almost done with it and if I do say it is looking gooood. What I really like about tms makes a cj-7, is they just include a sticker to cover the grill. I wonder if FMS has included the original grill in the new kit!
Wow the detail on that thing is awesome, can't wait for the updates. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Derrick 😁 hopefully will have it back together today!

Totally agree 👍 it's funny they don't make a ready to paint body, but compared to many the body is pretty cheap! And thank you.
