MPC The Wild Ones

[patw]

I bought this off ebay UK for a song, it said little used, but it was broken into numerous pieces. There was no radiator shell so I made one with alloy mesh, only the right arm for the Hot Curl figure,(so I made a prosthetic left arm) and he was broken into three parts, one whole Schwinn Stingray bike and another broken with front forks and wheel missing. So I used the chrome wheels (as one of the spoked wheels was broken)and used sprue for the axles. The front lights have no lenses either.

















The Hot Curl figure has a body in two halves, front and back, the legs have a spring mounted to the top that sticks inside the two halves, so the figure can be mounted on a dashboard and it dances as you drive along!

I have never seen this kit before, this is really a wild combo, great save, Pat!

Cheers hobbybobby, another rare kit in the UK, I'll try and get a complete one next time!

Looks like ol' Hot Curl got a little too close to a Great White while surfing ! You did a great job rescuing this kit

[patw]

Cheers donculley, yes that could have been the case!
