    I like them really well - especially since the topic is relatively rare! The bguy with the doctor's bag and the Tommy Gun even bears a certain likeness to Al Capone ...

    I would first see if I could get a model of the 1928 Cadillac "Mod. A" Town Sedan in 1:24 (Al Capone's favorite car) ...

    ... then get the figures in matching scale and make a scene where they are just getting out of the car ...

    Hi Mike!

    Concerning the 1928 Caddy "Saloon", which you show (with three windows on the side), I am sceptic!

    [IMG]

    Only the owner of the car (to be seen in the background) claims that it was Capone's car!

    Secure is, Capone had the normal version ("Town Car") with TWO side Windows and a leather cover on the roof! This is the original car on a contemporary photo ...

    [IMG]

    ... and this is what it looked like when it was auctioned recently. I showed it above...:

    [IMG]

    As it was auctioned in 2012 it brought $341,000.

    [IMG]

    Do you really think such a car just one puts in the garage like on your picture ...?

    Armoured, however, was also the 1932 Cadillac V 16, which he owned afterwards!

    Here the original car on a police photo - note the hole in the rear window to shoot from inside if necessary! ...

    [IMG]

    ... and here the matching "Franklin-Mint" model again, I showed recently ...:

    [IMG]



    @Samson:

    "Monogramm" offers this one - but only as Convertible (wrong, for not armored)...:

    [IMG]


    At "amt" you can get none.


    Thats all - pity!




    Cheers.

    Hi Martin,
    Did you bother to look at the first photo and the source links in my post? I cited the auction of the specific Cadillac version that you have reposted as being Capone's as well, along with an image of the same. The Youtube story of the six side windowed sedan was included with the rest only as an incidental story of interest.

    It was a good idea to combine all this figures with Cadillac.
