Murdoch17 Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 (edited) (Note to the MODs: This is in the town forum because it's a car. It could have gone in either the Adventurer forum, the Licensed forum, or here in the Town section. I chose Town because it could be easily modified by taking the figure out and making it into a regular 1920's car again.) The car on the other hand was inspired by this build which was in turn a modified version of set 70911, (Arctic Roller) This model is Sam Sinister's largest ride to date and lacks the spring loaded shooters of the original set. I replaced them with a proper car grille. The car by itself is about 8 studs wide (with a tiny 1/2 stud bit of overhang on each side due to the front wheel wells) and 28 studs long in total. As a side note, the headlights are not clipped in the same way as the original set had, and are instead sandwiched in place with 1 x 6 plates sand headlight bricks. The rear of the car features a license plate for Lord Sam Sinister and dual exhaust. The gray round thing on the trunk is supposed to house a spare tire, but it doesn't.... it's really just for looks. Two figures (sans tall hats) can fit side-by-side in the car, and their is space in the opening trunk for a briefcase. The teeny tiny mini-figure out by the front door of the house is Lord Sam Sinister... it just gives you an idea how massive the house and car really are! (the house can be found here) As usual, comments, questions and complaints are always welcome! Edited February 15, 2017 by Murdoch17 Quote

Littleworlds Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 This looks great! The arctic roller is by far my favourite set for the batman-film so far (and one of my top sets of 2017 in general) and you really underlined its strengths. A wonderful, fluid and clean design. Looks super-posh. Just the right thing for Sam Quote
sunhuntin Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 I can picture Cruella hunting down the dalmatian puppies in that. Very nicely done. Quote
theycallmemrdarko Posted February 15, 2017 Posted February 15, 2017 Looks like the car came out great and fits the style of your building quite well. Good job! Quote

(I modified the set in this thread here to be a representation of the Island Hopper seaplane.) 15 hours ago, sunhuntin said: I can picture Cruella hunting down the dalmatian puppies in that. Very nicely done. That's what I thought too! If they ever make a Cruella DeVille fig, I'll make this in red instead of white to match her car! 2 hours ago, theycallmemrdarko said: Looks like the car came out great and fits the style of your building quite well.
