Pitstop?

Not sure if this goes in this category or not. This is a character/figure from a movie so I thought what the hay.

Ladies and gentlemen, it's GUIDO! if you didn't know, Guido is a character from the movie Cars. My son absolutely LOVES the movie. It's by far his favorite. This is not the Webdude's model. I found this while digging through my model files. I believe it's from some Japanese site.

I did his wrench wrong, but it still looks okay.

Because of the tiny little wheel base the model has, it was very nose heavy. I ended up having to add strips of stock to the back to balance it out. It's quite a mess.

And that's Guido! I put it on on of my son's shelves last night. We'll see if he sees it today :twisted:

Very nice, sure is a cute 'lil guy... I'm sure your son will enjoy him very much.

Don't know who he is, but he got a laugh out of me! Thanks for posting it!

Well, my son didn't see it today as it was high on a shelf. So, before bath time I showed Guido to him. He said, "Oh! It's Guido! I want him." I told him that Guido is made of paper and he has to be careful. He sure loved it though. When my wife came in he said, "Mommy, Guido is on my shelf. I have to be careful with him." It was super cute.

That's cool Willygoat! Your little fella will feel special that you made something for him, too!
