Blood for the Baron!

Interesting vehicle here, Indiana Jones truck, but with a canvas roof, not plastic, not seen these about before.

I bought one of these in the woolies sale !

canvas back .... never seen a plastic one ?

I wasnt aware there were 2 different ones ?

I think the one I bought was from raiders of the lost ark, its the streets of cairo version.

saw one in sheffield last week ws very tempted as id only seem the plastic backed versions before. anyone got a pic of it without the canvas on?

picked up a cemetery warrior? ij figure for a skeletron custom yesterday too...

.
hows this ?

I bought a Russian Commander in the pretence of a new custom, still on the side at the mo.

great, thenks for the pic... can the canvas supports stay on the truck with the canvas off?

there is a plastic framework beneath the canvas, however the canvas is very tight fitting and I dont want to take it off because I bought it for my son !

just had a second look, and in some places the canvas appears to be sewn around the frame so may need to be unpicked to remove !

The plastic cover (moulded) is from the first release - it was later changed to a canvas cover for subsequent releases (so yes, two versions)

There is a Cora custom of ths truck on the Cobra Stickers web site.
