That 70' mustang will be mine.
Son will probably want the corvettes. Thanks for the early look tim.
Love to own one.i really enjoyed the movie.sean Connery was a excellent actor and the best James bond.he never made a movie I didn't like.
Have you seen Zardoz? 😅
Nice one mate. My favourite car from one of my favorite films.
I applaud Sean Connery for choosing to star in this instead of Lord of the Rings!
Every twist and turn of this film is gloriius madness, which is certainly how I like to live my life!
Best wishes from an Englishman making armour and music in a French forest. 🇬🇧⚒️🇺🇲
Even 6-wheeled limousines are outdated. It's something that's very rare.
That is awesome. I would love to get one of those
What a awesome kit. I have never seen it before. Thanks for sharing
This limousine will definitely remind me of the Tyrell P34 F1, as first seen in the Transformers cartoon sci-fi series episode called "The Key to Vector Sigma Part one" about what's well-known. 🔑 🗝 🔐 🔟 #️⃣ 3️⃣ 🔑
I saw the movie, yet don't remember that car. Lol I'll have to watch it again. Cool looking kit!👍
I saw a 1:1 scale car in person, built on a Cadillac chassis
The term “motor carriage” was applied to very early automobiles.
That was shortened to “motor car” and finally “car”.
The two steering axles idea goes back at least to the 1930s. It was supposed to provide more safety on winding European roads, but as roads got better it kid of faded away but enjoyed a resurgence in 1960s American “dream car” designs from automakers. The Ford Seattle-ite is a good example, bubble top and all.
Nemo’s car to me screams for a V-16. There’s plenty of room, but would it be a steam engine?
steam powered - hmmm - that's an idea ! 🙂
Ive seen the actual screen used car in person at Dezerland in Orlando, Fl. The car is based on a cadillac eldorado front wheel drive chassis. Pretty awesome car to see in person its huge.
*Think* that one is a replica. According to most records, the original was contructed using a modified Land Rover chassis with a Rover V8 engine (and according to one account, was a pig to drive). According to Hotcars, the replica sold for more than the original! By the bye, there was a matching kit of Nemo's Nautilus.
Some kind of aircraft engine could be cool.
I'd love to see a mainstream model company release this "automobile" in styrene. I don't do ebay/paypal, so anything from small specialty companies is pretty much unavailable for me.
If you could get your hands on a 1/24 scale Monogram Dusenberg or I don't remember if they did a Caddy with a V-16 but I think they did a Lincoln with a V-12.
Thank you!
The movie came out in 2003.
The box top has 2004 printed on it.
Thank you! I missed that
cool im a new sub shared liked loved
Thank you !
@@brucek3217 love to see the in 1/64th die cast scale but vert cool model kit brah cheers 100%
Maybe you could put a big Allison V12 aircraft engine in it.
I think the movie came out in 98? Maybe sooner.
The date is on sprues.
Thank you !
i was hoping this was a repop offering!
Too expensive for me on the market now.
It was only released once that I know of but I wouldn't mind getting another one if it was reissued. I wish WAVE would do that 👍
Cadillac V16. Lincoln is just a poor man's Cadillac.
I was thinking of the AMT 1928 Lincoln, but Monogram makes. a 1932 1/24 Cadillac, so that's a good suggestion 👍
@@brucek3217 I had a junk V16 in my parts stash(survivor from about 1979). I'll look and if I still have it and you don't have one I'll mail it to you. Isn't doing me any good.
@@scottysgarage4393 I appreciate that - though I probably won't get around to using it and building the kit for a long time 👍
Wave is a Japanese company. It would scream for a Spitfire airplane engine.
Hmm that's an idea 👍
A guy put one in a fake Rolls Royce car way back. He used to like to use it on the Autobahn in Germany, where he would sidle up to sports cars, change down and zoom off.
$600.00 now
I see prices like that on ebay sometimes - but I wonder if they really sell? I have also seen a resin one on there for far less but not recently. I bought this new when it first came out so it was far less money then. It really needs to be reissued by Wave so it's affordable to everyone.
O K. ,so this guy spends about half a century yapping on and on rather than cut to the chase and show us what we want to see!!
Bit like that awful movie, then
Wasting time on this video
