Popemobile
Posted by trevor999 on Tuesday, February 26, 2013 8:15 AM

Greetings all

Does anyone know if there is a 1:25 scale (or any other scale other than 1:1) Popemobile on the market?

Thanks for the help. Sorry if this question has been answered before.

Now THAT'S an original thought!  A Popemobile model!

I would just once like to see the Pope come out on that balcony and give the football scores.

Trevor, try doing a forum search.  It seems that all we ever do here is talk about the Popemobile!

Just kidding.  I have no clue if a model has ever been done of it.  To be honest, I'd be kind of surprised if one hasn't been made.  Heck, you can find a model of a Renault Dauphine, so why not the Popemobile?

I hate to say this, but, I think that if you want one, you're going to have to scratchbuild it yourself. I've never seen one.

Here is a photo of a 1:43 model I found when I Goggled Popemobile

It's really sad when the only model tool you own is a box cutter.
