I figured they were likely sub-mildly decent RC cars. Does the packaging say whether they operate at 27 or 49 MHz?

Just buy a frequency kit used in hobby grade RC cars and just replace the factory transmitter & reciever in the car.

Edit:
1. Check out the packaging of both vehicles there's usually some notation on the vehicle, controller, and/or packaging that tells you what frequency is in use. There's 5 standardized channels in the 27MHz range and 8 in the 49-50MHz range. They might not interfere with one another. It's really 50/50 low end toy-grade rc cars.

2. If on the same frequency, crack open one of the cars and it's controller. There's often corresponding rheostats on the transmit and receive sides that control the frequency in use. You can adjust these to mitigate crosstalk.

3. If no rheostat, then you might have to break out the soldering iron. These toys usually use generic multi-frequency boards.

Here is a vid to help. He calls it a transformer, but it's a rheostat or potentiometer.

The instructions say to turn on the controller before the truck so they can hook up properly. I'm thinking Fortnite R/C vehicles are using Bluetooth frequencies and can use any Fortnite controller (and maybe other brands) and it's a matter of turning them on such that they're 'isolated' to hook up properly.

Generally you want to turn on the transmitter before the reciever. This is common in RC cars with selectable frequencies as well. It could be bluetooth (though I doubt it) since it's usually good for 10-35ft, and that may be suitable enough for toys.

I haven't seen many people do customs of 4" Fortnite figures. Is there a good gallery anywhere?

I have not seen a gallery anywhere, only random Facebook posts.

I have actually thought about adding a section to my website where people can submit their customs.

Picked up the SDCC set off eBay last week and finally had a chance to open up my package and take a good look at the figures. Both figures are superior to the regular Solo mode versions based on the added paint apps alone, but the orange-highlight Omega is definitely in my top 5 for the entire line. It just makes every detail pop and the gunmetal wash is just perfect.

i popped the head off one of the robot guys with the blue armor that looks like a BAT and put one of the eternia minis trap jaw heads on it for a trapjaw and the "bigger" version of that fortnite character i put an eternia minis whiplash's head and a plastic snake's tail on it for a revelations type cyborg whiplash. both are for a "rival" band in this 5 parsecs from home game i'll never play/my toy universe.
