After a long and tiring search, one of my big Fifth Element pieces has been acquired. This is a fully built up and painted studio scale miniature of the taxi driven by Korben Dallas.
This particular piece was painted by a professional to be used as part of a licensing proposal. A few of the details of the item will be kept private to protect the talented people involved.
The piece is lovingly painted and prepared, and has some super waterslide decals on it. The checker pattern around the edge is incredibly clear and detailed. I’m very pleased with this piece. I think my only nit pick about it is the softness of the detail on the undercarriage. Some of the parts appear to be a generation or two away from the pattern, and the detail has softened, or been blown out by air bubbles.
However, this is easily the nicest miniature in my collection. Seeing as how all of the other ones are still in various states of being built up, this one gets a solid “ten” rating from this collector.
