I don't know about every one else, but I REALLY want a JK unlimited Rubi model kit. I even mailed Revell model kits. What I got in response was a polite brush off. I figure if more people request the same the quicker we'll have a JK unlimited model to mold into our life size counter parts. Anyway, here is Revell's customer service email address if you want to be part of my mission.

Do they make other JK model kits?

Gosh, it's been a long time since I've put one of those together. That used to be one of my favorite things to do as a kid.

I sent an email. That would be cool to make a mini-me of my JKU.

Post I saw kit at Hobby Lobby a few months ago....

unfortunately can't remember the manufacturer name. I do recall it was a smaller scale than the usual 1/25. It was for a JKU.

Found it: http://shop.hobbylobby.com/products/...ubicon-895037/

You are the man! I've been looking for this forever!

Oh, this is the metal model. I had one of these, but it's not want I want. The under carriage is solid plastic. I want to be able to lift the suspension and put on the tires from the TJ kit. Thanks for all the reply and keep the emails flowing. We'll get Revell to rollover one of these days.

Cool No problem!

I'd love to have a 1/25 scale JK. I've built a few of the Revell/Monogram kits in my younger years. Should have kept them

Although it's not a kit, you might want to get one since these are getting really difficult to find. I bought mine soon after I got my JKU. But since then, this company has gone out of business.
It's an Atlas HO scale Jeep Wrangler Unlimited.
