1/18

Has anyone done an interceptor out of one of these? Seems that's the only way if you want a 1/18 scale

Hmmm, that's an XA..... not an XB

Same shape though isn't it? I wonder what the spoilers could be made from, surely there's a company out there that builds Diecast cars to your spec?

Yea the same body shape.... though the bonnet shape and flutes are different to the XB... (plus the sunken tail lights as opposed to flush ones.....)

Biante makes an XB coupe model.....

Someone out there would probably make some white metal castings to convert a standard model.... Local hobby shops might know customers who buy white metal casting materials and make their own stuff..... they could help you in the right direction... or if you have the time and patience.... make the moulds yourself.... give it a go!

Cheers, what are flutes?

...i think Sam is refering ( flutes) to the openings near the rockers on the front quarter panels... the XB had faux flutes on the rear quarters.

Some truly awesome Interceptors there, as well as an incredible Humungus 6x6 and Red XA. That Dark Horse is one extremely talented MoFo.

Cheers, I wonder if a company will do a 1/18 scale, there seems to be the demand for one

DDA makes a 1/24 scale diecast of the MAD MAX pursuit special.It would be nice if they made a 1/18 scale version.
