So, I backed this, and was sorry to see this didn't fund. Then last week, I saw this:
https://www.amazon.com/Sunny-Days-En...s%2C250&sr=8-1 At first I thought, holy shit, they stole your idea! Then I read reviews, and this thing has been around for a few years. So, it's no wonder the MARV didn't fund for $65ish, when you could buy a very similar one from Amazon for under $20. I get that the size and quality of the MARV is probably a bit better. But, I ended up buying the one from Amazon, and it just arrived yesterday. I have to say, it's pretty damn nice (no windshield though). you got it in the mail already... how well do modern joes fit into it? and how many seats/ spots for figures to fit in? |

It holds 5. 4 seats and one Gunner. I don't collect modern Joe's, and plan on putting vintage ones in it. The vintage ones will fit fine. I do have one or two modern Joe's. I'll try it tonight and let you know.

Personally I do not think that this Humvee would be a good substitute for the MARV. In hand it looks a bit on the cheap side. I was really excited to fund the MARV, regrettably it did not happen. I am awaiting the Crazy Armed SUV from Joy Toy that I preordered, but at $130 each at Smalljoe or BBTS, it is very pricey.

And if so do they fit decent enough or is it a bit of a tight squeeze etc.... |

I checked and it fit my 50th Anniv Beachhead figure (minus the backpack), no problem. Maybe a little tight, but I wouldn't say too tight.

Got my amazon humvee in the mail today and I gotta say I love this thing! I do have 2 questions if anyone could answer for me....
1) is the 1985 mauler the same or very similar color? 2) is the FSS tan Clutch also a close enough color? I ordered him yesterday to drive it. I'm hoping his outfit is a close enough match... |
