Wallace & Gromit; and the curse of the were rabbit.
This was an Airfix kit I got some years ago “for my daughter”. It’s about 1/16th scale I’d guess.
Something fun and different to build. Had to convert Wallace from standing to sitting and added some carrots from my daughters ‘My little pony’ set for Gromit to hold (daughter was OK with it). Was a bit of a departure from my normal military stuff.

A “departure” indeed…..what was the kit to begin with? And yes, I noticed the license plate. 🙂

It’s an actual Airfix kit of the movie. So pretty much from the box

Oh…it’s a movie? Guess I’m “outta the loop”. 🙁

Ahhh great to see one of those built. Have one started, maybe i should give it another go. Isn´t there a mechanical hand or something coming out of the front ?
Carl Christensen said on February 14, 2017
Yes, there was a hand but this took me about 8 years to build ‘off and on’ and somehow the hand went missing somewhere along the line. Hopefully your inspired to finish yours now, comes out pretty cool though in the end.

The movie is really good. “the Curse of the Were Rabbit” is definitely the best of the Wallace & Gromit movies.
Nice work on the kit.

An excellent animated movie, supposedly for children but with plenty of …ahem!…’adult-themed’ jokes sprinkled throughout the script.
A lovely depiction of the rusting old Austin or Morris van (It’s a bit hard to tell which it is but both were very similar).

Nice change of subject.

Carl, is this still available? I’ve got a friend who’s a real fan. I must have missed this somehow, but it appeals.
Carl Christensen said on February 14, 2017
Umm I guess so, eBay is good place to start. There are other Wallace and Gromit kits also

Very cool, I think it’s an Austin by the way.
