Hachette Partworks Announce the Ford Falcon XB GT - Preorder Starts Now

[@XBGTCOUPE]

Hope we get it in Australia would make a nice playmate for my Interceptor replica

[@rodmorgan7041]

@XBGTCOUPE Good comment. After all, it is an Aussie car

[@james_tiberius_kirk73]

Not available in Australia which is unforgivable.

[@subaruadventures]

@@james_tiberius_kirk73 off course we wont get it but yes you are right

[@fatv66]

awesome Australian movie car but we won't get to build here in Australia

[@milanondrak5564]

A model in scale to the car of Max standing next to the car for the diorama would look awesome.

[@The12thDimension.]

Looks absolutely incredible. The working timing belt on the Supercharger is such a cool extra detail as well.

[@khyron6]

Ah yes my favorite vehicle ever made. Can't wait for the build. Thanks ;)

Iconic Australian car that is not available in Australia!!!!!!!!!!!

[@rhettcorbett3346]

@@nickward2031 But we have the Mad Max 45th Anniversary starting on the 27th September at Maryborough Racecourse Victoria. See ya on the road scag.

[@Mr74145]

It's missing the mfp badging on the front fenders. Thoe that might be fixed in the official release.

[@Thalon77]

It's intentionally missing that badge for copyright reasons. I expect some mods for this model to make it more post-apocalyptic, like extra gas tanks to put in the trunk after removing the door and the back seats.

[@PitstainHobbies]

Brilliant model Wayne, I can't wait to build it along with you and everyone else in the community!

[@truerc]

Looks good. I'd love to get it. But at well over 2000 usd total I don't see a decent value here.

[@iansands8607]

What it needs is a MAD MAX figurine to sit in or stand by it. That would be COOL.

[@squigglytiger4796]

Nice model, it would be fun weathering it up.

[@craiggarrett26]

I love it and the MFP badges will be an easy decal fix. I do not like the display base at all though. Looks cheap and plasticky. Wish they would do an option for subscription without it. Would probably cut the issue count by at least 10.

[@blue89irocz28]

The hood or what you call it bonet is from a 72 - 73 Mach 1 Mustang

[@johntutin1906]

What is the detail like underneath .is it a detailed exhaust system. Thank u

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Yep

[@wonniewarrior]

I seen the actual replica car when it visited our town. So there are 2 versions of this setup boot wise. The original in Mad Max 1. And modified in mad Max 2 with 2 Jerry Cans and 2 Aviation fuel tanks in the boot with the boot lid missing. Would Mike Lane Mods do a aviation fuel tank Mod for those inclined ?And that Model regardless looks Pretty.

[@maxv77]

I sat in the actual car that they used to scan this model a couple of weeks ago.its a beast

[@dashriptide]

I preordered before the live stream of your reveal of it

[@JosephStanley-w5t]

Hi Wayne I just noticed your playlist for the 1:8 007James Bond Lotus Esprit is out of order

[@WorldofWayneUK]

I better get on that

[@eddywells5689]

Great vid

[@michaelcook-w1k]

It should be called build “The last of the V8 interceptors.”, but I think they didn’t get permission to use anything mad max related.

[@MarksDiecastAndResinScale]

Nice,I was wondering if this 1/8 Pursuit Special version of the Ford XB Falcon GT was going to happen.Question is will we see it in Australia,the home of Mad Max and the Ford XB Falcon GT?

[@1969camaro]

Did you finish your Mustang yet for the scale 1/6

[@WorldofWayneUK]

It's.notmfonished yet. We have a long way to go

[@1969camaro]

Did you finish the mustang !

[@1969camaro]

@@WorldofWayneUK sorry just saw this i have one to im at issue 7 cant wate to see the doddy yet

[@dcf476]

They missed the opportunity to use an aussie voice in the apocalyptic style to advertise this. On another note they're advertising the bomber over here in australia now but 3 grand to build it😭

[@sambuka57]

Be interesting to see how they connect that supercharger to the engine so he can manually start it from the red Lever in side the car. As we know superchargers are connected to the engine and you can't just start them up. But hey ho it's a movie car so...I guess it doesn't matter.

[@MichaelRipamonti]

As this is an Australian iconic car, it is a real shame that it is NOT available to us here in Australia.

[@WorldofWayneUK]

I'm guessing it may be soon. Younaussies tend to get the Hachette stuff a few weeks later

[@ROC805]

We didn't get the Alien build...

[@Scotland37980]

hi Wayne you be get mad max t-shirt 😃

[@MrTamiya89]

130 Issue's Which Must Be Close To The 1/200 TITANIC. 😱.

[@robertoscoma6165]

Hi Wayne, by chance, since you are well versed in the world of collections, do you happen to know if this model is planned to be distributed in Italy too? I can't miss the legendary Interceptor

[@WorldofWayneUK]

I'm not sure atm

[@RikBiel71]

What about us, Aussies? Mad Max’s interceptor would sell like hotcakes down here

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Yep. I have fed that back

[@freddyfan1985]

Wasn’t the ford in road Worrior?

[@WondersChannel]

Not an interesting car for me this one but I hope that everyone building it has a blast.

[@frankkoppe2384]

Hallo, leider kann ich kein Englisch schreiben ich versuch es trotzdem mal. Ich nur eine Frage wird dieses Modell auch in Deutschland zu kaufen sein? Gruß Frank aus Potsdam

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Nothing on that at the moment I'm afraid

[@theresacaron4238]

Hachette is getting greedy by using way more issues than they need to similar to the Titanic build considering what they charge per issue. They probably drive Bentleys.

[@philthy17]

Hey Wayne, a couple of things, firstly it's pronounced FALCON there is no r in it the way you say it, if that makes sense, also irs only available in the UK, not even here in Australia, were it's our car ! But if you really want it go to Ian at partwork upgrades, he'll get it for you, but it will cost! Phil

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Phonetically say it for me. I've always known it as Fall can

[@WorldofWayneUK]

It's in the US too. Not sure when it will hit the aussie market

[@philthy17]

No wayne, it's FALCON Not fall can ,that's how Americans pronounce it its fal con , all good

[@james_tiberius_kirk73]

An Aussie Icon not even available in Australia. Only the UK and US get it. Ridiculous.

[@zappa1971]

After the Ecto-1 fiasco, I'm done with parts works builds.

[@PepeAburto]

130 Issues 😱not for me this time I will pass on it

[@nothappy9239]

IT WILL BE A MASSIVE INSULT FROM HACHETTE TO AUSTRALIAN'S IF AUSTRALIA CAN NOT BUY THIS MODEL FROM HACHETTE.

[@darrylcooper2587]

So they didn’t have the rights to actually mention Mad Max anywhere?

[@WorldofWayneUK]

Nope

[@christophecamus3295]

130×£10.99=£1428.70 Providing that they sell enough It a handsome car but I am not sure that you'll get all your parts

[@welshpiper62]

130 issues another 32 month @ 4 issues pm build Pass I'm sorry but they really are starting to milk the issues out some of the items you've been getting in some of the kits is laughable.😡😡😡

[@dashriptide]

They might do a accelerated version or more then just 4 issues at a time

[@MrTamiya89]

2 Year's is A Long Time To Build A Model Car, But 3 Year's. 😱. It's Alright If You Can Afford To Build 4 Model Car's Each Month For A Worthy Display. I Just About Managed To Afford To Build My K.I.T.T.

[@robertnicholls2316]

Shame it’s not the mad max version

[@kevinsong1855]

It does have the police siren inside the vehicle like the mad max pursuit special, so they were going for the look without the license

[@b_man75]

Its a model of a Mad Max replica car which is a clever way of releasing a Mad Max car without paying licensing fees to WB. AutoArt did the same thing with their last 1:18 Interceptor release. The only thing missing is the MFP decals which should be an easy aftermarket fix.

[@HaywoodViola]

Walker Sandra Rodriguez Patricia Jackson Gary

[@ickelpete]

I guess they don't mention mad max for licencing reasons! The model looks great but it is too clean it needs weathering.

[@nitramsnilloc2361]

Should have been the Interceptor from the second film, a far better car. Hopefully this will be offered afterwards
