Hound Knight Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 (edited) The Leslie Special was custom built for Leslie "The Great Leslie" Gallant III for New York to Paris race against his arch-nemesis Professor Fate. Here is my attempt to recreate this famous auto-mobile. Leslie poses with his auto-mobile. Reference. Enjoy! Edited July 2, 2011 by Rufus Indexed Quote
Millacol88 Posted May 25, 2009 Posted May 25, 2009 Cool little MOC. Judging by your reference pic you got the shape and proportions down, its just that it looks slightly big for minifig scale. Other than that, good job. Quote
Sir Dillon Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 Nice looking car, but this goes in Other Themes. Quote
Guss Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 a very cool design, I love how you made the wheels, that's ingenious ^^ Quote
Hound Knight Posted May 26, 2009 Author Posted May 26, 2009 Nice looking car, but this goes in Other Themes. H'm, OK. It seemed to fit in the Adventurers theme to me. Thanks for the kudos everyone! Quote
L-space Posted May 26, 2009 Posted May 26, 2009 H'm, OK. It seemed to fit in the Adventurers theme to me.Thanks for the kudos everyone! One of the greatest films ever. When man were man and adventures still adventurers (instead of computergeeks). Quote
Raphy Posted February 22, 2010 Posted February 22, 2010 This is one of my favorite movies ever... and you made the Leslie Special really well! I hated Leslie though. Professor Fate was so much cooler. ;P Quote
Legostein Posted February 27, 2010 Posted February 27, 2010 Hello! That's a fantastic realization of the Great Leslie's car! I can not remember how often I saw this movie, it's simply great. I especially like the tyre construction, a clever way to get the white tyres from the original car in the movie. It would be great if you continued in the spirit of the movie and would bring us Professor Fate's Hannibal for example. Professor Fate constructed many nice machines which I'd really enjoy seeing bricked. Cheers, ~ Christopher Quote
ric323 Posted September 7, 2016 Posted September 7, 2016 I love it. :) New member here (plainly), so I'm not sure if there's a protocol for asking how you made it. I realise this is an ancient topic, but do you have a list of the parts required, or what sets you raided to get them? Ric. Quote
