1/35 CNN Truck
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, February 16, 2007 9:53 AM

Greetings Forum-

I ran across a kit for a 1/35 scale resin CNN Truck on a web site recently, but can't remember who makes it or where to get it.  It would make a nice addition to an Iraq diorama I'm planning.  Can anyone help me out?  Thanks!

good luck with the find. It sure would be helpful to have the bigger satvans as well as the common cars and SUVS with TV taped up in the windows in a common scale we all could use!

Is this it?

 

If so, it was actually built for NBC, not CNN.  It was custom built by Jim "Gun Truck" Lewis.  Check it out at his site.  NBC Bloommobile

No, that's not it, but that looks pretty cool.  The one I saw was a kit for sale, it was photographed assembled, and was a white satellite van (maybe even slightly armored) with "CNN" in large black logo lettering on the side.  Any ideas?  Anyone seen it?  THANKS!

A CNN truck would go great with a Communist themed diorama! or if you want to have it based in Iraq have the military Unit either showing their distaste for the reporters, or shooting at them Big Smile [:D]

we dont exactly like the media, esp. not CNN. LOL

pretty cool to see a unique kit like that though.

Remember, when you criticize the media in an open forum, they (or their researchers, who are low-paid and don't like their work) can read, and make up stories about you, and how bad you are.  Also, they might twist your words around-as in this example from 'The Dilbert Principle' by Scott Adams. 

"You say: "Our company is skilled in many other things that are never reported by the biased media."

Media Reports: "Our company ___killed____m____other t__________er_______e__s_____a.""
