Draggon Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 (edited) I just got an email from Hobby Search and this flying car kit was listed. I don't know if it's new or not, but thought some of you that build flying cars might be interested in it. https://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10847842 Edited July 10, 2022 by Draggon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Austin Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Looks like a Chevy Suburban on the boxart, which isn't included in the kit. Or anywhere in 1:24? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tabbysdaddy Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 Yep, liking the Suburban. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
niteowl7710 Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 I always thought the dairy cow with VR goggles (so it thinks it's in a field, rather than a post apocalyptic warehouse) was the winning piece from ToriFactory for this particular series of diorama items. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daddyfink Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) Don't we have a thread for this kind of stuff a bit down from this thread? http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/forum/16-car-aftermarket-resin-3d-printed/ Edited July 11, 2022 by Daddyfink Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlackSheep214 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 The original flying car kit is the famous Chitty Chitty Bang Bang car model kit. That’s the holy grail as others want in their stash. Heck, I used to have the Corgi diecast one as as kid. Wished I held on to it. I know there was a thread on it somewhere. Back to the Future DeLorean is still around though.

stavanzer Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 Not a T radiator, more like Dodge or Chevy, but you point is well taken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stavanzer Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 A few things to notice in this photo. 1. It has tiny marker lights on each side of the radiator. 2. The elevators are drooping, which means he hinged them.... 3. It has a (then) current License Plate. 4. The prop looks like it does not spin, it is only bolted in place. 5. The lower wings act as front fenders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
