Its turning out to be a real challenge.
A very small car with a complicated shape.
Trying to turn it into a simple paper model (KoolWheelz style) is difficult.
It won't be perfect.

Better watch my KoolWheelz thread for a future release.
Maybe October.

its funny...Corgi Toys did put out a Man from Uncle diecast.
The THRUSH BUSTER Oldsmobile.

But they did not do a "Spy car" (Piranha)
Maybe they didn't get the rights.

Husky Toy put out a very small scale diecast Spy Car in Man from Uncle themed blister packaging.
Corgi later acquired the casting and released it in their Corgi Juniors line.
Its a pretty poor looking model though.




anyway...
I couldn't pass this one by.
I'm a sucker for movie and tv cars, even if I am not a big fan of Man from Uncle.
Only ever seen two or three episodes in my life.
And the recent remake movie was pretty lame.

But, I am a fan of Corgi, Dinky and such
And I do like actual (non CGI) custom cars built for TV and Movies.
AND...I do like anything by Gene Winfield!!!!!!!!!

It already looks better than the Corgi

Sorry AirDave! I had to hit your design sense again. But it is a COOL car! And you are just too good at designing these things.

I would hold your applause until after you've seen it.
I never promised perfection.

But, I'll give it a good try.
(If only because its a Winfield!)

Final model turned out great. Now I need to hit the print shop to get mine printed. My printer is giving me problems again. Don't think I'll buy another Canon all in one printer. The print hasn't been that great, gives me problems linking to the scanner on WIFI, and the ink doesn't hold up well.
