Bandit One

[carlosmtg]

Time for a new build, this is one that will be a gift to my dad, dad has been building since he was a little kid, unfortunately about 10 of his models died in the hands of a child (that child was me many years ago) to this day he keeps a list of the models and tells me one day he will buy them and build them again, well this is one of those on the list and he will be getting the surprise in the form of a Christmas gift, i have been wanting to do it for a while so here it goes!

Yes i know some parts arnt fot the bandit, its cause im building the F&F eclipse along side

Wicked, is this a new kit? All the ones I have seen have been the older 80's ones. If this is a newer one you got a pic of the box so I know which one to grab? My wife is a HUGE Bandit fan and wants the car, best I can do is a model one, can't afford the real deal.

Cool I'm gonna have to pick it up and go the extra mile and spoil the rotten woman to death for her birthday. She's already getting an 18K Gold Necklace for Christmas it took me 4 months to pay off.
