ROB'S LITTLE ULTRAMAN MODELS

Hi Woodsy!

Here are three little vehicles from the original Ultraman series, tiny snap-together model kits by Bandai, released in 2016. I kept them in their beautiful molded colors except for some window and detail painting. My favorite of course is the drill tank, called Vellucidar. Enjoy!

  1. I like the space glider. It is a bit like the Spacex one or the Eurosec one.

    1. Me too Kev, tho' I like them all really. The long Mogura is amazing. Is the car a Hillman Rob? Great job. They look great!

    2. The Space Glider is awesome, yes! And that’s all original plastic colors, the parts fit together really well. Trying a recent Bandai kit was a revelation, as the molds were so tight and clean. A world different than the junky SF kits from the 60s/70s.

    3. Woodsy, that little silver car is a Chevy Corvair! Directly from the 1966 TV series. It was so cool that the Science Patrol car was just an off-the-lot US vehicle with “spacey” decals!

    Very nice. I especially like the shuttle craft. The silver-grey plastic looks really nice.

  3. That little shuttle doesn't half look like the EuroSec Dove from Journey to the Far Side of the Sun
