Pretty wild, and the figure painting is really good.

Re: Opel Manta B "Manta Manta"
Fantastic job!
Having owned a Manta GTE and a Berlinetta in my youth I'm shocked to say that I've never heard of this movie here in the UK! I used to stare at pictures of the red Mattig demo car in Street Machine magazine and dream about one day buying the bodywork for my own car...you've captured the body lines and those wide steel rims, perfectly!  Somewhere, I have a very embarrassing photo in my and my wife next to my Berlinetta in a similar 80s pose...may have to track it down!

Re: Opel Manta B "Manta Manta"
I can't talk about the model (never heard here in France about that movie either) but the result is mind-blowing, the paint is incredibly perfect !!
I also like the figures, nicely done.

Re: Opel Manta B "Manta Manta"
I've seen the movie (long time ago), and I think your model looks great! Brings up a lot of memories...
According to Amazon the only available version is German.

Re: Opel Manta B "Manta Manta"
Absolutely unknown movie also down here.
Strange cause every BS coming from germany about cars is usually really loved in the ferrariland, as well as the mythical serie Cobra 11, where we all can understand why bmw e36 and e46 simply disappear from entire europe quite quick (for american guys, same destiny of the Dodge charger 1969...) Nice model, even if not in my tastes. Impressive build up from the masterman.Another victim of the slot cars starting projects...
