Ducatis from the Matrix : Reloaded movie

Actually I was wrong Protar has a few models of the 996 out, some of their models are also reboxed by Revell of Germany but at a higher price.

Did the Protar Agusta MV4 and was disappointed there is a much better resin kit out in 1/12, also comes with a lady rider in maid outfit holding a gun.

If I recall correctly, the same fellow that designed the Duck, designed the MV.
I am speaking of the factory models, not the ones used in the movie.

Yes, its a dark green. Its the Ducati 998, of which there are a few kits out there for.


The specs, http://www.onyerbike.net/2004/ducati/matrix.htm

The bike used during the filming was an MV Agusta SP4, which was flat black. The ducatis are sort of injected. I dont know the whole story, but I saw pictures of Trinity on the MV, and then she appeared on the ducati... not sure what was up with that.

the MV was also used in I, Robot

To my eye it appears to be a very dark green. In the following pic, chek out the light relecting off the fairing between the headlamps:

You can see some gradients of green there. Hope that helps.

It is supposed to be a Ducati 996, no known model of it out there.
Ducati offers now a limited 998 and 620 in Matrix scheme.

Bike appears to be black from this shot:

Quiet possible that the used a 998 too.
Either way I reckon that the Bike was moded heavily.

HTH.

I think it was a 916, which is available from tamiya 1/12 scale. I thought the one in the movie was black, but it has been a while since I've seen it.
