I did change quite a lot, first to fit Mega figures, next to make it more like the original toy, in my eyes at least, and lastly to try and incorporate as much of the original features as I could. The gun turret can be folded and stored in the boot of the car. The Eye Spy Missiles are removable (they need to be removed to close the lid). Unfortunately I wasn't able to incorporate folding wheels.
I've included one photo with a prototype, that also serves as size comparison with the Turtle Van, as well as a render from Stud.io.

It?s beautiful, just like the original Foot Cruiser.
