Jeep Wagoneer


The Jeep Wagoneer will be joining our 1:64 Cherokee later this year. Right now, I am only planning for the stock version but it will have a full die cast body and chassis, opening hood and fold down tailgate. We'll debut in the JL2.0 line and shortly after introduce into Forever 64. A big thanks goes out to Wagonmaster for helping us on the reference photos.
Make sure you make plans for Lightning Fest 2011 as the tool model will be on display.

  1. i love this Wagoneer, it has the more distinctive design among all the SUVs available... there is any plan to create a modern Jeep Wagoneer ???

  2. Finally some one has the balls to make this. Thanks TOM Z. I will buy a few of these. Only Majorette has done something close to this.

  3. I'm not much into SUVs as a general rule, but this is far and away my favorite SUV. Glad to see it being made!

  4. Nice choice. But still waiting on an official release date for the XJ. I'll buy these too though. Jeep = just empty every pocket.

  6. I think it's great that JL will produce the classic Wagoneer. My brother had one back in the 90s and it was a tough truck!

    JL should think about casting a Jeep Commando to fill out its Jeep line -- or how about a Scrambler or Honcho?!
