You could build forever. Hmmmmm, just the idea, what to do with all those kits in my stash. Imagine, a whole table full at your next show. Edited May 15, 2015 by Greg Myers
Joe Handley Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 The lads from Mighty Car Mods already built their 1:1 <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pV_rM2kW5YQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/MiICQ4gDpH0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/JO9vgdSnbeg" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/3phb0uF2sPQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> They really need to do an episode with the guys from Roadkill where they have General Mayhem running against Mod Max here............preferably on neutral ground, like downtown London, England..........kind of a "Hello from the colonies" special:flipoff:
Zarana-X Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 (edited) Two of the Australian people here have already completed a Gigahorse, and a bare metal Interceptor is in the works. *cough* You two know who you are... As far as real car replicas, and inspired builds, don't get me started.... Edited May 15, 2015 by Zarana-X
Jantrix Posted May 15, 2015 Posted May 15, 2015 I've built a couple Mad Max-esque models in the past and have another in the works. They are a heck of a lot of fun to build. It's very freeing to not have to worry about having the "perfect" finish.

Timonator Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 It would be awesome if companies like Revell made kits of these.
Aaronw Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 It would be awesome if companies like Revell made kits of these.I've always assumed the black top warrior kits were in response to Mad Max and The Road Warrior and the slew of post apocalyptic movies that followed.http://www.madmaxmodels.com/blacktopwarriors.htmlI didn't realize they didn't issue those until 2001, 20 years is a bit of a lag time even for a model company.
Greg Myers Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) I'd have to agree. Just saw the movie. Let me tell you all about it. " WOW ! " And if they did, there would be some great building material for other builds. Edited May 17, 2015 by Greg Myers

Dave Van Posted May 17, 2015 Posted May 17, 2015 There's only about 100 ideas in the film.....I've built from all the other movies....started a few from Fury today........ Seeing the film for the 3rd time Monday!
Greg Myers Posted May 17, 2015 Author Posted May 17, 2015 No spoiler here, however, I have to say when this guy was on screen, the audience went wild. BIG ol "O-daiko" drums from Japan on the back with a drummer each. But this guy on the front with his flamethrowin' dual guitar, brought the house down.

NO CGI....it all really worked....and is WILD!!! Each time I walked out of the movie I had a adrenaline high!! Note the 71 Charger to the right!
disabled modeler Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 I got to see this one too sometime....and build a few from all the movies but the first one I want to build is the first black interceptor....
Dave Van Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 I got to see this one too sometime....and build a few from all the movies but the first one I want to build is the first black interceptor.... Not sure why......but the Aoshema Mad Max Falcon kits have gone through the roof. Not sure if this film has driven up prices or just supply and demand in general. When the first came out they were under $40.....now around $90 and OOP. Long before any kit I built my own. It was a planned series Mad Max Falcons. This was my version of the Falcon right when the MFP buys it but has yet to upgrade it to lure Max back in. JoHan 72 Torino, AMT 72 Mustang and some parts. Other Max vehicles MANY more coming.....
Drake69 Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 I need to start working on my Aoshima kit with resin conversion to the Interceptor's original state. Yup. I need to do this.
Dave Van Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 I need to start working on my Aoshima kit with resin conversion to the Interceptor's original state. Yup. I need to do this. I have one of those resin conversion kits......are they still made??? Who?
Drake69 Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 (edited) I have one of those resin conversion kits......are they still made??? Who? Ebay, although the guy that makes them is on the forum here as well. Search in the forums for Mad Max Conversion kit and you'll find my thread. He hopped in here and introduced himself. EDIT: found it............ http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=75292 Edited May 18, 2015 by Drake69
Dave Van Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 Looks like he and his website are gone again....Thanks...I'll keep looking!
Zarana-X Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 Other Max vehicles Neat. i don't think I've ever seen any one attempt Aunty's ride before.
Dave Van Posted May 18, 2015 Posted May 18, 2015 Neat. i don't think I've ever seen any one attempt Aunty's ride before. Far from perfect......but built in the VHS tape era with little reference. Thx
Scale-Master Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 I think a "factory stock" version of the Perentti would make a cool model.
Tom Geiger Posted May 21, 2015 Posted May 21, 2015 New version of the "mother in law seat". I wonder how long you could drive that down the PA Turnpike before you got pulled over?
