I built this version of the Lil Coffin many years ago, but it is one of my personal favorites. I did a blown drag version and modified the standing little coffin skeleton into a seated driver position then used the driver head from another mongram kit. The body was painted with automotive lacquers out of a spray can and wet sanded between coats and then several coats of clear also wet sanded and hand polished. The figures are from Jada and the police car is a x-mod radio shack rc car. Enjoy!!!!!

I really like Your photo progression
I would be very careful walking up on a perp like this too!

Say, would that Patrol Officer be "representative" of "anyone" We know?
;D
Great build, even an old one Fred!
Thank You for sharing Fred
