Yes. I only have a couple I've actually converted, but a pile I've collected over the years in storage.

These are two of the Atlantis toys by McDonalds here in Australia.

This one is for my 15mm Nemo VSF Force:

This is for my ACW-VSF Union forces and is a little bit boring:

This is one of the Burger King toys by Burger King I bought off eBay. I'm pretty happy with the result. Again this is for my ACW-VSF Union forces:

That Strider looks great! Seems more like a kit than a toy now. Could use a bit of weathering or wear, but other than that it's very nice.

You're right it could use a bit of weathering.

I have two different striders. This strider is the Burger King toy. I've managed to pick up quite a few over the years from eBay.

There was another strider available with four legs.

It was also available with the Derailer Tank:
