Acquisition Radar for Matchbox MXT toy truck

thingiverse

This is an acquisition radar for the Matchbox MXT toy truck. The file only includes the parts for the radar; the truck itself is not included. If you're lucky, you might find them at stores that sell toys. This project was part of a bigger attempt to create support vehicles for A.M.V.P.'s. To offset the cost of fully printed AMVP's, I aimed to keep this project as cheap as possible, so using toy trucks made sense. The trucks can be found for about $1 and there are approximately $4 worth of printing costs, but these prices may vary. I used filament to attach the radar parts, which also allows the radar to move and fold down. I hope you enjoy it!
