Wacky Races: And Awaaaaaay They Go...

The Wacky races project is complete barring optional display board/scenery, well ahead of schedule (the tournament is in June) so thought I'd show it off a bit.

... and now here they are!!!!

The most daredevil group of daffy drivers to ever whirl their wheels in the Wacky races.

Competing for the title of world's wackiest racer.

The cars are approaching the starting line.

First is the Turbo Terrific driven by Peter Perfect.



Next is Rufus Roughcut and Sawtooth in the Buzzwagon.



Maneuvering for position is the Army Surplus Special.



Right behind is the Ant Hill Mob in their Bulletproof Bomb.





Then there's ingenious invented Pat Pending in his Convert-a-car. (Might do a wreck/scenery)

Oh! Here's Penelope Pitstop, the glamour gal of the gas pedal.



Next we have the bouldermobile with the Slag brothers, Rock and Gravel. (Again, scenery, although thank christ this wasn't chosen to be a second female race team given it was watched in the UK...)

Lurching along is the Creepy Coupe with the Gruesome Twosome, and right on their tail is The Red Max.





And there's the Arkansas Chugabug with Luke and Blubber Bear. (Again, scenery)

Sneaking along last is that Mean Machine with those double dealing do-badders Dick Dastardly and his sidekick Mutley. And even now they're up to some dirty trick.




And they're off... to a standing start. And why not, they've been chained to a post, by Dick Dastardly, who shifts into the wrong gear.

And away they go... on the way out wacky races.

  1. LMFAO! Great stuff, had me giggling at the cartoon paint scenes, brilliant!

  2. Looking great! And yeah, they're all recognizable by the paint schemes, even without Conversions. I hope you do get around to doing the rest as scenery, but even without those, they should look fantastic all together.

    And ouch. Good point there. "The Slag Sisters" would not have been a good move.

    1. The bouldermobile would be the easiest scenery piece by far. Go to beach. Pick up suitably sized pebble. Done. But of course it only works if I use some of the wreckage and barricades from the speedfreaks set to represent the convert-a-car and the chugabug so we shall see on that one :)

      And it does open up all sorts of horrific possibilities... "and Peter perfect has the Slag sisters in his sights" or "the Slag sisters are all over Dastardly Dick..."
