From Hotwheels!
(http://images1.wikia.nocookie.net/hotwheels/images/6/6a/Tri_&_Stop_Me_-_09NM_BlackGold.jpg)
I bought two from Toys'R'Us today. I'd have bought more but they only had two :(
My instant thought upon seeing one was that it'd be great for inner city "Infinity" type games as scenery or as transport for a street gang. I'm now thinking of swapping the tyres for something rugged and turning them into 'Outriders' for my Warthogs and whatever apc I decide to put with them.
-
I can imagine whole gangs on them. Very cool.
-
It's cool, I managed to find one in my local Asda.
-
Ooo pretty. How much?
Damn I was in store today too (Halo Mega Bloks (faux lego) for the boys christmas pressies!)

Toys'R'Us or Asda, they both sell Mega Bloks and Hotwheels, lol.
97p in Asda.

Perfect for loads of genres.
Outriders, easy convert into USCM Mongoose quads! Wicked.

Thanks for sharing.

Any guesstimate on what the scale is?

This is a peugeot 4002 from Norev (1/43rd scale)
Useful?

I paid a whole 99p each at Toys'R'Us.

Yep, that'd look good on the future streets :)

Works for 28mm. It's toy car size, so it's made to fit packaging etc rather than to an actual scale. I'll see if I can get a pic with some figures next to it later. Most of my stuff is in storage though so I can't promise they'll be useful figs to have stood next to it :D

Nice, reminds me of Matakishi's mouse vehicles a bit:

Somehow I've managed to miss those pics on Matakishi's site >:(
Those mouse aircars are wonderful and look like pretty easy conversions. They would be ideal for some future police I'm contemplating.
Must try and find a cheap mouse or two, or three.... lol
-
The piccie seems to have gone.
Can some-one link up another one? ???
-
Gah, I'll fix it later when I take some scale pics, sorry for the delay.

Some scale pics with em4/Grenadier Future Wars figs.

And one to show it's perfect 'exploration' potential :D

Jed's stuff (www.barrule.com (http://www.barrule.com)) is bloody lovely, the bikes and flyers are nice, though I show you lot the civilian car though first off in keeping with the thread.
Jed's also working on a quadbike and a military 4x4 of piggy extraction. ;)

Now those are rather nice.
-
Reminds me of "Tron" - especially on that cutting mat.
Anyone do suitable riders for them ?

Heh, I can see that :)
The seat area is quite wide so I suspect 'stock' figures may struggle to straddle them. Shouldn't be too hard to convert something though. I'd rather cut away part of the body but it's thick metal so I doubt it would be easy.
-
Those trikes are perfect for 28mm. Just what my biker gang needs. Their feet are getting very sore from too much running around lol
I love that car that the Commander posted too. Loads of potential uses for it.

To Asda I go! Although I often check out my local Asda's Hot Wheels stock and I've never seen anything this suitable for 28mm. Fingers crossed.

Hot wheels chopper bikes are spot on too bud, lots of us have used them in the past to great effect.

I had to stretch my Catachan plastic figures quite a bit to get them to sit on my Hotwheels bikes but they look ok to me.
