When this model first came out it didn't have the ejector roof panel, just a hole. Eventually they added it to the model, but I bought mine before it was added. I was pretty bummed out. So I found their corporate headquarters and hand wrote a note about how much I loved that car and wished I could get a roof panel for my DB5. To my great surprise not long after I wrote that letter a very nice package arrived at my doorstep, and you guessed it, contained within was the roof panel, a thank you note, and some stickers and photos. That's a true story, and of course that roof panel sits stop my DB5 everyday. Now I ask you, is not the coolest thing ever. And by the way, it fits like a glove. AutoArt certainly won me over, they could have just thrown that letter in the trash but they didn't.
What an awesome story. AutoArt went out of their way to let you complete your model. My model doesn't have the roof either but I think I have made peace with it being not available. I will try to fabricate one using plexiglass if I get some time. Thank you for sharing your story. Please like and subscribe to my channel if you liked the video.
@@undergrounddiecast I also admire you're activating the gadgets, a while back I thought I'd show the machine guns and as I gently tried to open one side, the blinker popped off. It's tiny but I found it and sooner or later when I get a nice magnifying glass I'll super glue it back on with some model tweezers. We'll see about opening them up again, I'm scared cause the model is pretty old now and it's fairly fragile. What a wonderful model though, I'm so proud to have one. And your garage diorama is fantastic, I love it.
@@robertkees6048 The model is indeed fragile even the wheel spokes are fragile. But its a work of art and with age some parts become brittle. All the best with your repair adventure and I really appreciate your compliment about the diorama. thank you.
So that's TWELVE gadgets, 4 expandable bumpers front and back, revolving license plates front and back, a tire shredder, 2 oil slicks, a bullet proof shield, a removable ejector seat, and 2 machine guns. And even though it's not an actual gadget it has the navigation device the dashboard That was very ambitious for 1/18 scale 20 plus plus years ago.
Would you kindly forward what is the catalogue number of this AUTOart version, please? I'm trying to find one but I'm only getting the plain version AA70020 with no gadgets hidden. Thanks!
