cobraman Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 Here is the finished product of me trying to build the kit as depicted on the end panel of the box. Not really the nicest Cobra ever seen but I think it does resemble the box art pretty good. Built stock with just parts in the box. Not quite the right shade of pink but what the heck, close enough for me. Comments both good or bad are always welcome. Thanks for looking.

Alan Posted February 19, 2013 Share Posted February 19, 2013 (edited) I really like this, I am planning the same thing, bought a hot shade of raspberry nail poish to paint it ............. Looks good Did you make that box in the back ground with side panel art on it ? Edited February 19, 2013 by Alan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobraman Posted February 19, 2013 Author Share Posted February 19, 2013 Round Two seems to include that little box in all the newer reissues. Cool idea I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MGL Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 You know, it has never occurred to me to actually build the box art. I may have to try this sometime, thanks for posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
