MikeH Posted May 5, 2009 Report Posted May 5, 2009 Pyrman's avatar is Captain Chaos, which brought back fond memories of The Cannonball Run movie. I built this one for a friend of mine as a gift. He and I used to get together and watch crazy movies like Cannonball Run. The kit is the MPC Dodge van kit with the Cannonball Run box art, and the figures are courtesy of Scale Equipment Ltd. He still gets questions and comments on it 3 years later sitting on his desk at work. I made the back drop of the movie poster on my computer for the van, J.J. and "Him" I regret being "green" to the hobby still and not being able to find a figure to make the doctor as well.
