Any hints on where to find one in scale to Joes? Imagine the possibilities! Besides Joe customs, the Bulldog and Rhino from MASK would be awesome as well as an optimus repaint, Knight Rider...man the list can go on forever!

The nearest scale would be Bruder. Their trucks and such are around 1:18 if not just a little larger. But they'll have exactly what you are looking for. - Bruder Toys

None that I know off. The True Heroes Soldier Force Rocket Hauler Playset is works but you need to mod the trailer. Bruder Toys makes some great vehicles closer to 1:16 which work alright with the 4" figures.
MAN TGA DHL Truck with Tilt Sided Interchangeable Container and Trailer MB Actros Low Loader Truck Again, there isn't one with a trailer. I've only seen the crane first hand, and the Joe figs fit in that really well. |

Unfortunately, there is not a Semi with Trailor in 1:18th scale. The closest thing is the actual mask size that can be found at TRU and they are 1:24th scale. There are model kits that are 1/14 scale and they are way too big. They also cost $500 plus.

I have spent hours searching the 'net for a JOE scale semi to use as Optimus Prime, either G1 or movie, and have failed to find anything. There has got to be something somewhere though, either a cheap plastic children's toy or maybe some kind of remote controlled semi, I just haven't found it yet. I have started drawing up plans to build my own, still working out the transformation. I'm not sure if I want to build it from the ground up completely from scratch or build on top of an existing figure ( one of the big ones, like Cybertron Starscream ).
A JOE scale MASK Rhino sounds like a cool idea too. |

What about the old NYLINT or ERTL pressed steel tractor trailers? I don't care as much if the fig's can actually fit in the vehicles as long as they look good standing next to them.
if a 20 foot tractor with a 40 foot trailer = about 55 feet combined (layover) then 1:18 scale would be about 36 or 37 inches right?

I scored these off of ebay about a year ago. They are a tad small for 25th figs, better suited for ARAH figs. 2 HISS tanks can fit on the trailer. One of these days I'll get around to painting them.
