Hi Guys
I think you guys may like these pics and frame grabs as its all boats :) in one of the episodes,that is set in a Monte carlo style harbour, there where some model boats I was wondering the origins of. kit or toy.
I came across this archive photo, and got searching for the boats on it as Im sure Id recognised them before, the one on the left.
turned out it was a Triang Scalex boat. they had at least 3 of them in the show, one painted blue with "SHARK FISH" written on in letraset, 1 standard brown and white, these 2 didnt make any sort of real appearance just background models.
but one played a big part in the episode as it was used by a villain in quite a bit of the episode, it had a new body with ripmax handrails and windows on it, Im going to convert my one like this, so need even more of those old ripmax handrails now :) will go nice alongside the hydrofoil boat that Im building already as theyre both from the same episode.
and from the behind the scenes documentary.
