So, in a fit of randomness, I FINALLY have something to share with you guys here. I bought these kits years ago at TRU because they were cheap, and frankly I needed the light bars for other projects at the time. The light bar doesn't go with the kit anyways, as the light bar used on this vehicle in both Robocop and Robocop 2 is totally different as well (the Taurus SHO wasn't used either, but more on that in a bit).

Anyways, as I said, in a fit of randomness and not really having a good day for painting (it's damp outside, so I'd normally not take on a spray project during this kind of weather), I just decided that I'd jump on these. I took out all 3 of the kits I had leftover, a can of Kyrlon Fusion flat blat, and went to town. So far, these are my results:













. . . . and you'll see I ran out of paint:


I'll be honest, I don't entirely know all of my plans yet for these. As I said, the Ford Taurus SHO was not the model of car used in any of the movies, but this is simply the kit I'm stuck with. I don't really have any plans to de-SHO it, other than maybe removing the "SHO" letters from the rear bumper (i.e., the headlights and brake lights are different between the SHO and other models of Taurus). A part of me wants to make at least one of them "pristine" and "movie accurate", but I'm not sure. What I DO intend to do with one of them is to create one that is from the opening sequence of Robocop 2:



If you've seen the movie, then you'll know what I'm talking about. I've also mulled around the idea of at least replicating the project to put up for sale. Anyways, I thought I'd share this progress with you guys





Also, just a little bit of personal trivia of ol' SQ7, he used to have not one, but two actual Tauruses (though neither were movie replicas).
