Are the hovercrafts from the "Matrix" movies available?

Just wondering if they are available as a kit, whether it be resin, stryene or whatever.

Haven't seen any kits yet but have seen a couple of scratchbuilt ones that looked pretty good.

I haven't seen any kits but I have started collecting pics off the net for a possible scratchbuild.

Um, while not a model kit as such, the matrix.com does have a virtual model you can download. It comes unassembled on virtual sprues and in the end you can freeze frame of the completed model doing a rotating dislplay and take snapshots- though I have no idea where the snapshots go; they supposedly go to a pictures folder, but I have yet to locate it on my computer. Still it is definately worth it for inspiration for a scratchbuild!

I was watching the movies hoping I could get some good angles for a scratch build, I just don't know where to start.

The image captures go to the "copy" board(?) on your computer. If you open an imaging program (paintshop pro, etc...) and click "paste", it should show up and then you can save it.

I did this back when I was hot to build the Neb., but then the 3rd movie came out and I lost interest in it. There's no way to convince me that the Wachowski bros. had the whole story mapped out from the very beginning.

Of course that's just my opinion.
