Just messing around here - I thought people might like to see the little.buddy I'm making for the full-sized lunch box. This is for my 4 year old.

I got a new ray pullback monster can for a couple of quid on eBay - and am going to try to paint it up.

Not perfect, but it will clean up ok. The shell won't come off without breaking. Looking forward to doing some details now.

Fun project!

The trick to getting clean window rubber lines it to use masking tape - put it over the whole window area then press the tape against the edges of the raised surround, and trim it with a sharp knife... then you can just paint the rubbers with a brush and peel off the tape to leave a straight line:

I really should have done that! Was just in too much of a rush to get it running 😬

It's not perfect - the mini decals were beyond my limited skills. But it does the job - my son thinks it's great. These New Ray pullbacks are really well made, with full working suspension.

Is the monster beetle back in stock yet? I clearly have too much time on my hands....

I saw this link on Facebook the other day, and while not directly related, I think anyone into micro vehicles is likely to get a kick out of it!
