Bronco models... there are roughly five options out there: 1. a 1/32 1980ish snap-together from Monogram 2. a 1/25 1978-79 kit 3. a 1980-81 kit from Revell and/or Monogram 4. a 1980-85 kit from MPC 5. a 1/24ish 1966-77 Early Bronco resin body The 1/32 is easy. None have been reissued lately: and a black version with Hotwheels/Monogram: All four are exactly the same (though not all came with the hardtop) and can still be found on ebay with the first kit being the easiest to find.
Next up is the 78-79 Bronco. It was first issued by AMT and named "Wild Hoss". A few years back Model King reissued the Bronco in a set that included a Cougar and trailer. Both are identical and can be found on ebay... both can be expensive. The "Wild Hoss" tends to command high prices due to its age. The Model King set, being essentially three models in the box, goes for the price of three kits. BUT enterprising guys will split the kit and sell off the individual models for much more reasonable prices. to be continued... www.offroadmodels.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=reissue&action=display&thread=245

I've always liked the artwork on the Wild Hoss' long side: The lid's not too shabby, either:
