Just got the new POC Vamp a few weeks ago and thought the vehicle was cool enough until I put it together. Man the cheap plastic wheels and tires kill it on the hope of looking realistic in photo shots. I went to walmart and found a John Deere toy with oversize wheels and rubber tires and had to convert the Vamp! Here are some in progress change over result pic's.

Man, that is sharp looking. What a great idea! While I like the PoC Vamp, I agree that there were some key changes that should have been made before it hit production. Unfortunately, that ball was dropped. Looks like you picked it up and scored!

I put my VAMP together last night, what else can I say then I love it. Best vehicle IMO since 25th, though the Escacalde from ROC is slick too. Though I prefer being able to see inside plus all the extras.
I think you did a great job with the tires! I may try that myself, thank you for finding the correct tires. Great job. |
