Blade Runner Police Spinner by Medicom Japan
Medicom's Spinner is a great model/toy that presents very well with a bit of tidying up of the slightly sloppy production line finish.
While it's not entirely film accurate eg, the turret mounted lights are too small & the cockpit detail is virtually non-existent. Interior aside, it's an improvment over the original 1980's design by having a sleeker profile in this iteration, looking far more futeristic in the process.
I gave the Spinner a quick little touch-up & did a little work with a Gundam marker, then gave the canopy & body a good polish to remove some unsightly scratches. There's still more to do, but for now at least, I can look at it without cringing.
