Cool surprise announcement:

https://shop.atlasrr.com/c-1762-z02.aspx?mc_cid=2e0e32610c&mc_eid=cd638975d9

So question, what type of trucks are on the Multi-Max cars?   I know they have 28in wheels and Atlas confirmed that is what is on the model.   I'm just wondering if the trucks might have other applications.   I haven't concerned myself too much about the trucks in Z, but since I'm going down the path of N-P conversions, now it has become more of a priority.

The Multi-Max cars are slightly too new for me so I'm out on this one, but AZL announced both Multi-Max and AutoMax cars in their recent announcement update video.     So I'm in line for the AutoMax's which are definitely in play for me in 2006.   Anybody wanting Multi-Max cars in Z is going to have plenty of options.

It looks like AZL has now cancelled their plans for doing an Auto-Max (it was designed but not tooled) and will instead be going ahead with their Auto-Max articulated auto carrier:
