Re: Fifth Element Miniature Background Car

Nice score, and ditto...did you get a screen cap of it or see it on film yet? I was just watching myself, and did'nt see it.

Hi Tee,

So what you have here is a replica right? Not actually "screen used " if it's the one Paul sold you. It's a cool item but it is a "resin casting " that Paul has knocked up and as it says " just needs the windows and details painted"

Just wanted to be sure he didn't tell you other wise.

Auction title : Fifth Element Miniature Background Car Casting

Quote email : ... I received these castings several years ago from a friend that worked on the film. ...

And now i received by email : Saw your post on the RPF, just wanted to say that the car you bought was pulled from my screen used replica and sold as such. I't's not from the film.

With this info i believed to be a miniature used in film, I know now that not! :cry

:wacko <= Tee back to the school to learn English...

Well it might not be screen used but it's still a cool looking car. Just how big is it? And if you decide to cast it up I'm interested as it has the 5th Element "look" about it.

Re: Fifth Element Miniature Background Car

Size is 4"

I would not make a replica, but it's a replica you can ask the salesman blacklagoonboogieman on ebay :

I probably should not have put it like that, sorry
"Just wanted to be sure he didn't tell you other wise."

I thought after I posted I bet it was more of a case of "lost in translation"

Tee I think you got a bargin, hard to beat that price after casting, paint, place the ad and then post it... you got yourself a steal. Looks like a cool little prop and nice job by Paul. good going

Re: Fifth Element Miniature Background Car

I like my purchase.
I do not regret.

When i read on eBay :
[highlight]Item specifics[/highlight]
[highlight]Original/Reproduction: original[/highlight]

[highlight]This original resin casting has been base coated with metal flake green, it just needs the windows and details painted.[/highlight]

I understand it was a screen used.
this is not the case, never mind.

I've got a few "copies" from Paul of Fifth Element cars. And I love them all. It looks like I'm missing that one though :love. Email on the way to Paul for a new toy.

If you want a bad ass collectible from the movie - if you don't already - is go to my facebook page, look up Rick and/or check out Creative Concepts Enterprises - he's got some stuff I think he might be offering that you'd be interested in...
