Scooby Doo Mystery Machine Van Model Kit

 

Scooby Doo model kit

 

 

The Polar Lights Mystery Machine from Scooby Doo. I built it pretty much stock out of the box. The figures are not that great, but they were redone (prepainted and preassembled) in a later reissue.

It is molded in this rare green, so I just clear coated it rather than paint it. I did not think I could match that color with paint.

There is no scale on the box, but it appears to be around 1/20 or larger. It's a snap kit.

In the cartoon, the engine was in the rear, which makes you believe it may be a VW or Corvair van, but in the episode "The Creeper", the "radiator" overheats and Shaggy and Scooby go for a walk to get water. (it's a cartoon, accuracy is not what they were after :-)

Model Kits

  • The Best of Hanna Barbera: Tunes from the Toons - The Best Of Hanna-Barbera. Reissue of best-selling compilation featuring the theme tunes & underscores from those classic & much-loved TV cartoons that were first transmitted between 1958-1974, Scooby Doo, The Flintstones, Yogi Bear, Top Cat, Huckleberry Hound, Dastardly & Mutley, Penelope Pitstop & many others. 48 tracks
  • The Art of Hanna-Barbera : Fifty Years of Creativity - With the revival of animation in Hollywood, this latest of Sennett's books on movies is timely. Idea man William Hanna and artist Joseph Barbera created Tom and Jerry at MGM, then through revolutionary limited TV animation built today's thriving "General Motors of animation," home of the Flintstones and so many others. Reading like an official company history, scooby doo full of praise for the men and their creations, this is informative, upbeat, and impressive, with deep colors on heavy paper. The simple Hanna-Barbera art is a bit spare for these giant glossy pages, compared with the delicate detail in Christopher Finch's The Art of Walt Disney (1973). But having between two covers all the Hanna-Barbera characters, series, features, and lore is a welcome event. Recommended for art, media studies, and popular collections.
  • Scooby Doo, Where Are You! - The Complete First and Second Seasons - Watching all the shows back-to-back reveals evolving complexity in the scripts. Over time, Scooby-Doo's creators added multiple bad guys in cahoots with major villains, and developed sub-plots, backstories, and even appealing allies and friends of Mystery, Inc., a traveling band of young debunkers of supernatural phenomena. Riding around in their psychedelic Mystery Van, preppie leader Fred and his friends--haughty Daphne, brainy Velma, quasi-hippie Shaggy, and Shaggy's best pal, Scooby, an excitable Great Dane--chase down and are chased by alleged ghouls who generally turn out to be venal humans running various scams. Included here is Scooby-Doo's premiere, "What a Night for a Knight," in which the gang looks into the disappearance of a noted archaeologist and end up in a "haunted" museum. The fun "Go Away Ghost Ship" finds our heroes helping a shipping company daunted by the apparent ghost of pirate Red Beard, while the silly classic "A Tiki Scare Is No Fair" concerns a Hawaiian vacation for Mystery, Inc. disrupted by a witch doctor.
