Christmas Trucks

Over the last few years I gathered a bunch of these little Christmas trucks from Hobby Lobby.  They have a hole in the roof that held a loop so it could be hung from the Christmas tree.  The bed had a Christmas tree glued to the back and there is an air hole in the tail gate of these hollow trucks.  They were covered in glitter paint.  I hate glitter.
I have been filling the holes on the roof of most of them and the tailgate hole on all of them.  The roof hole gets filled with a plastic disk and super glue and then sanded down.  It's a very thin resin model.
Some of them are rather wonky, I think the paint remover caused sag on them.
This truck has a ring around the roof, and I have left it alone.  A couple of these trucks will be Army trucks with a machine gun in the roof and this one, I built out the truck bed.
Some will become police trucks, others US Army and US Navy and a few civilian trucks.
