kruleworld Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 I picked up the Funko Pop of the Lone Wolf (Vermin) car from Mad Max 2 movie. The model is very toy-like and the included figure is the usual awful looking funko rubbish. it leaves a lot of room for improvement. Mods include removing figure, cutting out the grille and adding mesh, adding 4x exhaust pipes, padding around driver, new rims and a heavy weathering. I replaced the front rims with 3D printed rims that are more accurate. i've not been able to find a photo of the rear rims. DSCF0445 by aus_mus, on Flickr 3
kruleworld Posted December 26, 2024 Author Posted December 26, 2024 This is the front rim that i replaced And this is the rear before modifying. the bar does not go across the back like this
70 Sting Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 Hard to believe the final result came from the toyish original. Nicely done.Ā š
espo Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 The painting and detailing done on this has changed it into a great looking build.Ā
spencer1984 Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 I always suspected the Funko cars could be turned into something better looking, you've proved it and then some!
michelle Posted December 26, 2024 Posted December 26, 2024 awesome work on the conversionĀ i have done some conversions like this using toys before but they were to make 1/1 scale hero prop replicasĀ so alot of cutting and replacing bits and pieces and weathering and paint workĀ
karbuildr Posted December 27, 2024 Posted December 27, 2024 Very well done. your weathering and rust work is exceptional. Very cool build.
