I found these Sunday afternoon at a Rural King farm supply store and had to pick one up For my Cobra troops. Lots of detail and a working suspension for 8 bucks! The little half doors don't open though. It's a tight fit for figures and if the doors did open I'm not sure they would stay shut very well with figures in it. Anyways, here's some pics..

Pretty nice, especially for something that probably wasn't explicitly designed for figure comfort in mind. I assume you put the figures in through the gap in the top of the rollcage? I imagine getting figures into the red one would be nigh impossible due to the roof, unless the rollcage is removable (and it doesn't look like it is).

Yes, through the top. The steering wheel and the passenger lap bar are made of a pretty flexible plastic so that helped a lot. The Viper was actually easier to get in than the other figure. I didn't see the red one at the store, but from the pic on the box, the roll cage does look different in the front. I'm not sure if the red roof panel could be popped off easily or if it's secured by screws or some other means. I'd thought about making a removable roof for mine later with a gun mount. Kind of like making it a smaller Cobra version of the AWE Striker.

They look like they'd work awesome for customising too!

I noticed on eBay that there is also orange, one that seats 4 figs and a deluxe one that comes with a fig, truck and trailer. It doesn't look like the doors on the truck open. No red ones and I think the pic on the back is actually the orange one.

They also had the same truck & trailer, figure set packaged instead with a pair of generic looking 4-wheelers & another with a skid steer at the store. The doors of the truck didn't open. Last year they had two different models of 1/16th Ertl Big Farm pick up trucks with opening doors that fit Joes well. I have a blue Ertl Silverado version somewhere I found at a yard sale.
