Would you buy vehicles, horses, ....?

[Mondragon]

...So many I'd love to see. These stylized charts make a pretty grandiose check lists, but are not realistic...

...honestly these are just not possible, wouldn't/couldn't buy them a this scale, for cost and space is just a reality.

That's great !
...More random impossible dream cars all eras ....

I call BULLS*** on the topic.

Yeah that's why It was pretty clearly stated above - these were not all realistic. ^
Sorry for the confusion, and if all the awesome fun dream car images, made your head explode with rage.

 

[Mondragon]

Some drop dead gorgeous Deco/Diesel-Punk beauties...

Nemo's Limo LXG.

And HYDRA vehicles,

As well as HYDRA motorcycles and one man sub
Sky Captain had some great planes too!

And the winner:
El Murciélago-Humano's: 1938 Hispano-Suiza

No, this was never a movie, and likely never be made, though it should be!
(car is real though, think it had an airplane engine in it)
And yes I would buy the bizarre character (pseudo Flash Gordon/Hawkman/Batman), his flying horse, and his car at 1/6 scale

 

[asgardianboy]

Hmm counting movie Motorcycles

After Termi2's Fat Boy Harley, Hot Toys Hell-Cycle, and the Batpod...

Brando on Triumph Thunderbird

Captain America and Billy's Harley Choppers
Easy Rider

Dredd's Lawmaster

Although even better if they did a straight Carlos Ezquerra comic accurate version.

The Cap Harley and Hydra Cycles


Akira Kaneda's Bike

Dark Angel and black kawasaki zzr(ish) (yeah, went there)

Trinity on Ducati

Tron Cycle (they did, I wonder how/if they could execute an 80s style one with rider?))

Kaneda and his bike are done and redone.
There are 1/6 Ducati's out there that you can repaint.
Lawmaster from 2012 Dredd is done.
ZY Toys did a Fatboy. Might be accurate.

 

[Mondragon]

I call BULLS*** on the topic.

We collectors are truly a bunch of bulls*** hypocrites. Let's be honest about that.

Actually I was really hoping to see the cinematic masterpiece that is Luis' hideous 1972 Ford Econoline Ant-Van, with three-tone puke, rust and faux-wood, finish, classy rear "opera" window, mismatched bondo detail, remote activated Cucaracha car horn, and quantum-time-tunnel-generator.
Done in meticulous 1/6 scale detail.

I can't be the only one with this dream...

...and loaded up front with figures of everyone's favorite Marvel Cinematic U champions - Dave, Kurt & Luis!- The Antourage Trio.

 

[Mondragon]

For the record, watching this emerge from scratch is a sight to behold - 1/6 Scale Blade Runner Spinner (scratchbuild)
Thread worth following.

Although (custom figures not withstanding), everyone tends to put Deckard in at the pilot seat, when it was clearly Gafs...

 

[Lorddrizzt]

Brando on Triumph Thunderbird

Infinite Statue is doing that as statue. I think Sideshow is their distributor in US.

The original masked hero dark ride...

Horses, (for several franchises Zorro, Raiders, Westerns, Apes, LotR, etc)

Batmobiles are pretty well covered
And after seeing BttF DeLorean

Green Hornet's Black Beauty ;1965 Chrysler Imperial Crown

Bullitt: 1968 390 CID V8 Ford Mustang

Vanishing Point: 1970 Dodge Challenger R/T

Gone in 60 (1973): 1973 Ford Mustang Mach 1

Reyes' 69 Hell-Charger!

Honestly always preferred the #9 Shooting Star to the Mach 5

TXH 1138 - Lola T70 Mk III

Buckaroo's dimension breaching modified Ford F-350 turbine GE jet engine + nitrous fueled + Proto-Flux-Capacitor AKA - the Oscillation-Overthruster

1943 Stark prototype hovercar

LOLA (Levitating Over Land Automobile) - cherry-red. 1962 Chevrolet Corvette

Aliens 1986: APC (Armored Personnel Carrier)

I mean it'd be the size of a storage trunk! Essentially a rolling-box to store Colonial Marine figures in.

honestly these are just not possible, wouldn't/couldn't buy them a this scale, for cost and space is just a reality.

The ones if done exceptionally well, that could break me, I'd actually consider:
V8 Interceptor with Mad Max
Odyssey EVA pod with Bowman (may have been done)
Spinner with Gaff (pilot)

As far as full on vehicles go, I'm tempted to get TDK Batpod and Tumbler to go with Batman! I own a 1/6 Star Wars Speeder bike, which is fantastic, but, it's pretty large, so space can be an issue.

Based on your suggestions, man, I think I'd like a 1/6 Herbie the Love Bug! My favorite "alive" car character. A1/6 Christine from the horror film would be cool too.

I posted in the Blitzway Zorro thread I'd gotten a 1/6 black horse aka Tornado for Zorrro! I still haven't opened it yet as it'd be too big to display I'm afraid. I was continually looking for a 1/6 black horse saddle (I don't mind it not being screen accurate since there aren't many around) and fortunately I was able to get one when TA parted out the SW Toys Lady Adler figure.

Looked them up, those do look beautiful, and incredible detail.
Although (we are in the statues, props forum) I'm torn on the detail vs posse-ability joints and cavities sacrifice (not sure what the other options are?) , my instinct is to want them to be posse-able, at least having a rearing and running option , yet not sure how much that would come into play.

For Zorro's Tornado, I think I'd need to know I could switch from running to a rearing option.
Although there is that one designed static pose - slight trot (leg tail position) that then cleverly, just somewhat convincingly by tilting it back onto the tail, also allows for a rearing pose.

Interesting! Hmm, while I do prefer articulation, I think I don't mind the horse being static.

 

[Mondragon]

From Mars to Jazz inc. with several Batman vehicles in 1:6 being made (and/or remade).
Time to celebrate the other side of the character too-
Civilian Bruce Wayne's personal rides:

Adam West Bruce Wayne's 1966 Chrysler Gold Imperial convertible?

Keaton's personal car is Plymouth Volaré ...oh-oh, Cantaré, oh-oh-oh-oh

Though Alfred drives him in a 1956 Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith

for a sports car, I guess he gets the Kenner 92 custom coupe

Kilmer - Jaguar XK120 roadster 40-50s?

Bale - BB & TDK Lamborghini LP 640 Murcielago (“bat” in Spanish (yes I know cars Italian, Lambos are named in Spanish after infamous Toros) Rises Lambo Aventador

Afleck - Mercedes-Benz AMG Vision Gran Turismo

Pattinson - 63 split-window stingray Vette

Re-Keaton Mercedes-Maybach-6 Concept

Herbie is a childhood icon. And Christine was nightmare fuel, it'd be so weird yet awesome to have them on the same shelf.

If you do ever decide to unbox that horse for Zorro, please share any pics.
Also if you get that Batpod to go with Batman, I'd love to see it side-by-side, with Zorro and Tornado. Seems a fitting display parallel.

Hah yeah! Herbie the love bug! I liked Fully Loaded personally. Yeah that movie while not outright terrifying is kinda scary, but it'd be kinda cool to own a car that can repair itself

If you do ever decide to unbox that horse for Zorro, please share any pics.

Yes, yes! I'll make sure to! (When I eventually get around to it hopefully )

Also if you get that Batpod to go with Batman, I'd love to see it side-by-side, with Zorro and Tornado. Seems a fitting display parallel.

Oh man, neat idea!! That'd be a great comparison to do! Man, I'm even more tempted to get that Batpod now!

 

[Mondragon]

Yeah love all the Zorro - Batman parallels:

One of my favorite things in Miller's DKR, when the nuke goes off, it knocks out all modern gadgetry, vehicles, and electronics, essentially sending the world back into the archaic past, Batman rides out on a Black horse, clearly invoking and channeling that other Dark Knight, he remembers from his past.
Miller really drove home their connective legacy.....

Aliens 1986: APC (Armored Personnel Carrier)

I mean it'd be the size of a storage trunk! Essentially a rolling-box to store Colonial Marine figures in.

I take back what I said, it probably could fit everyone.

View attachment 624687

Joost you can take my money as well. But I still think I would go a Spinner over this, but with both, I would have zero figures to go with them, so can you make all the figures as well? And I can think of something big and yellow from Aliens as well …

@choombaz re; here cause it's awesome, hadn't seen that blueprints and cutaways before and seems at least one other great vehicle to imagine. I think this is the largest unlikely vehicle suggested in the thread. It'd have to double as a piece of furniture.

KITT

Pursuit Special 1973 Ford XB Falcon GT351

Aston Martin DB5 (James Bond Franchise)

I'm very interested in doing KITT, a Mad Max vehicle and the DB5

From JazzInc. ^ Worth repeating, and encouraging here.

JazzInc.'s The Batman Batmobile is looking great, if that's an indication of what their Pursuit Special 73 Ford XB Falcon might look like.

Here are some pictures of the early production samples, so this is what it'll look like shipped to you. ...

rep here cause it's awesome, hadn't seen that blueprint before and seems at least one other out there enough to imagine it. I think this is the largest vehicle suggested in the thread.

The blueprint is from Rinzler’s Making Of Aliens book. There are more as well. I’ll post them later when I’m awake haha.

Q&A with JazzInc's Joost:
Besides SW and Batman, really seems like they could be the future for other HQ 1:6 vehicles
Several possible (and likely impossible) vehicles discussed or just referenced, what is/ isn't on his radar, though it looks like he's open to exploring almost anything: But mostly apparently he's a fan of general 1:6 collecting.

23:14: - Mach-5 and particularly K.I.T.T.

25:27 -Jurassic Park, Battle Star Galactica

27:04 - Mad Max

40:16 - Fast Furious

40:50 - John Wick, Christine(obviously doesn't read this thread)

 

[Mondragon]

Going from cars, to motorcycles, and now back to Horses!:

I admit I don't know horses, and less tack and saddle well enough to distinguish all the details:
But perusing the John Wayne True Grit thread, I never quite appreciated the fun visual parallels these two would make on the shelf: Cogburn protecting Mattie, and T2 protecting John, No coincidence they both got an eye blown off, and mission is protecting a young kid trope.

I know there's a couple of 1:6 Harley Fatboys out there, not sure which horse would best fit Rooster Cogburn?
Apparently in True Grit and then most films going forward, he rode Dollor a sorrel colored Quarter Horse?
The horse showcased with James Dean (Starace?) seems pretty close, though the hair (mane and tail) would have to be lightened, and the white patch down his nose slightly adjusted...

Not sure if Mr. Z has a closer fit?

Great looking figure, now just needs the equally gorgeous Pale Andaluz---https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I0pPG6s_daY&t=94s
"And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and all of Hell followed with him."

805lar.gif

A similar looking horse would also work for his High Plains Drifter "stranger,
arguably the spiritual predecessor to Pale Rider, or better the other side of the same coin.

Edit:
Oh wow Mr.Z actually has a smokey pale dapple gray... https://www.bigbadtoystore.com/Product/VariationDetails/222151

Though it'd be hard to capture that gorgeous Star-Dappled of the Andaluz at 1:6
it comes pretty close.

Also from the Eastwood thread, I might be regreting still siting on that Pale Rider figure.
Though I am curious if anyone paired him with that Mr.Z smokey pale dapple gray (apparently a Dülmener?) It comes pretty close to Eastwood's Star-Dappled Andaluz.
Would love to see them together.

Beware that the James Dean horse is small.

Rooster is a tall figure so he probably look like Clint riding the mule in A Fistful of Dollars.

Ha, that's one of the great character intros. Again I don't really know horses, is that really a mule? Or they just calling it that to be funny? It's smaller than regular horse?
Not sure there is a single iconic horse to go with the man with no name?
Been a while since I did a sequential watch of the Dollars trilogy, to notice how many and what kind of horses he had throughout, I believe it always changed as the situation demanded?
Unlike the iconic poncho which he picks up on GB&U making it a prequel(shot last), Im not sure what horse he's riding off with at the end of it? He might steal Angel Eyes' horse? Though it follows, then I don't think it's the mule he has at the start of AFFoD?

Seems dressed down, and allot shaggier, hence the mule?

I don't know if it really was a mule (the offspring of a male donkey and female horse), but it does look more like a shaggy pony.

I looked into the chronology of the Dollars films years ago and it got confusing. There are clues throughout, such as dates on gravestones and newspapers, and other historical details. GBU is obviously the first, set in either 1864 or 1865.

Clint gets the holes in his hat in For a Few Dollars More, placing it before A Fistful of Dollars. There's a newspaper archive in For a Few Dollars More containing the year 1872. In A Fistful of Dollars there's a gravestone marked 1873 during the cemetery shootout. FaFDM has to take place in 1873 as Clint uses an 1873 Colt SAA, and AFoD has to take place from 1873 onwards.

But in areas they defy logic, such as Lee Van Cleef playing two different characters. (The American Horror Story effect). Plus weapons that didn't exist until much later.
