New tool 1/24 BMW 2002 from Hasegawa
PowerPlant replied to Matt Bacon's topic in Car Kit News & Reviews
At last! Hard to tell from the auto-translated text, but I suppose this will be a curbside? A later "turbo" option with wheel-arch flares would also be nice, but I won't nitpick... Any version of the 2002 is definitely way overdue! -

Nice! I especially like the Superbee... Still looks fresh after all the years

Nice color combo... Not normally a car I would be interested in, but you make it very appealing

Amazing! I like how you scratchbuilt the bench seat from the kit's bucket seats Also, I'm curious how you did the dashboard instruments? Decals or paint? It looks great!

I couldn't find a trailer with English subs, but no matter... This is a Serbian film called "The Belgrade Phantom", and it's based on true events dating from late summer of 1979, when a bored young man stole a white Porsche 911, belonging to a famous tennis player - one of few such cars in socialist Yugoslavia at the time, only to appear on the streets late at night and taunt the police with his driving... He even started announcing his appearances, anonymously calling them in over the radio, soon becoming a hero among masses who nicknamed him the "Phantom" and started gathering on the sidewalks to cheer him on during his "performances"... Needless to say, he wasn't quite as popular with the authorities, and the police, which seemed largely helpless in even slowing him down, let alone catching him in their patrol cars, had to come up with something fast, before president Tito returned from his visit to Cuba and found this "rebel" mocking his entire regime

This is a famous, short "cinema-verite" film by French Director Claude Lelouch, it's full title is C'etait un rendez-vous... It was in fact filmed using a Mercedes 450 SEL 6.9, with the sound of the director's Ferrari 275 GTB added later... There's good info on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C'était_un_rendez-vous And here's the video itself: Making of video:

First "snowed-in" movie that comes to my mind, apart from obviously The Shining and Fargo, is definitely Misery Then The Thing, if you're into a bit of sci-fi, or A Simple Plan, which is not strictly a "snowed-in" movie but definitely is very snowy - kinda like Fargo More recently, there was Tarantino's Hateful Eight... Not my favorite movie ever, but definitely quite a "snowed-in" mood to it... As for a comedy... I say Groundhog Day.

Divided by a common tongue

There are many examples, but "truck" and "lorry" are obvious ones I reckon -
I like it, Kerry, perfect match! Some nice NASCAR wheels might suit this build, don't you think? Looking forward to progress

PowerPlant replied to David G.'s topic in Model Cars
This is likely the nicest build of this kit I've ever seen... Great photos too, most make the model look real! -

Thanks for the replies, a shutdown and re-start seem to have fixed the problem. As far as I am concerned, this topic may be moved/deleted. -

So, it seems I can reply here, but not to PM's or in my own topic in the trading section... This is frustrating. Anyone know why this is happening??? -

Same here, and that really was a major disappointment, after all the premature announcements and subsequent delays... So I didn't really get my hopes up about the DB5 this time around, but boy was that short-lived Revell really should reconsider their new models announcement strategy, this is just silly...

Scale model of the Week
PowerPlant replied to Vietnam Vet67's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Do you still have the hood perhaps? I have one of these kits unbuilt, but the hood is severely warped unfortunately, and I've not had luck finding a replacement
