ToRo Model shares with us two images of their recent release which is a single figure in 1:48 scale of the civilian pilot or a car driver of early ninety-twenties.

He sort of reminds me of the characters in the movie "Those Magnificent Men & Their Flying Machines" 1966.

He sort of reminds me of the guy sitting in the cockpit of the red aircraft in the previous post.

Are you getting royalties for modelling for this sculpture Mr Lawson ?
