Posted May 31, 200816 yr Hello everyone! In honor of the recently released Indiana Jones movie, I've finally decided to post my version of the Nazi Staff Car from Raiders of the Lost Ark. It's the car with Belloq, Toht, and Colonel Dietrich in it, and oddly, the only car not included in the "Race for the Stolen Treasure" set. The pictures are a bit big, so I've posted links to the BS gallery instead. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Blues/Ra...staff_car_1.jpg Here's a basic view of the car. Shows most of the details, including the easy-to-miss red flag. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Blues/Ra...staff_car_2.jpg Straight-on front view. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Blues/Ra...staff_car_4.jpg The (left) side. Those pontoon fenders there were hard to make; all the other brickbuilt designs were larger, so this is the smallest I could make it. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Blues/Ra...staff_car_6.jpg The back, with luggages, bags, etc. attached. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Blues/Ra...staff_car_8.jpg Here's a shot from the back. That canopy structure back there went through versions than the car itself! Its shape is hard to get right, but I think I did a decent job. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Blues/Ra...staff_car_9.jpg Inside the car. Room for 3 figures- that's just enough space to get all the important characters in there. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Blues/Ra...taff_car_92.jpg Here's a scale shot. I kept it at the same scale Adventurers/Indiana Jones cars tend to be. Here's a reference shot, from theraider.net .
