I noticed these model cars on this site that appear to be from an anime...call me a nerd but I'm obsessed with racing animes, I have complete DVD collections of Initial D, eX-Driver, and Cyber Formula.....now I see there's a racing anime that features MKIIs?http://www.geocities.com/dust_inc/images/pxx26.jpg

I must know what this anime/manga is....then buy it immediately.

(since its geocities copy/paste the link in the address bar, you probably already knew that)

"The full title of the series is Miracle Tuning Car Roman: Yoroshiku Mecha-Doc. Published in 1988, this early work of Tsugihara's is about a small tuning company called Mecha-Doc and the three people who run it; Jun Kazami, Ichirou Nakamura and Kiyoshi Noro."

Have a look at these

I've got the model kit but I've never been able find the manga.

As long as this thread is here...
I know this (http://www.geocities.com/dust_inc/images/qxx21.jpg (copy/paste in adress bar)) is from Lupin the 3rd, but what series/movie? Or is it just a box?

 

[KesekiSupra]

omfg i wanna see a movie with my beloved mkii in it, NOW. we need a mkii fast mkii furious movie out

 

[Downshift]

we need a mkii fast mkii furious movie out

You've given me an idea... If/when I get the proper equipment, this will be my first project. :mk2vroom: :3gears:

 

[KesekiSupra]

omg i want royalties...or....patent pending.

 

[Sparky]

Actually, should do old school imports; early 80's Supras, Zs, and RX-7s. That would be interesting, IMHO

 

[trdmkii]

hey where can i get some more pics of that anime, or actually get that anime, that would be sweet to watch

 

[Downshift]

omg i want royalties...or....patent pending.

LOL, there won't be any royalties to give out I'm afraid. It will be non-profit, just something for me to mess around with. But I will give credit where due for the idea.

 

[**lame_screename**]

Yeah, I like the oldschool import idea. Now you just need a plot w/screenplay, video equiptment, cars, actors and funding. :roll:

:joke:

But on a more serious note you should pursue it. Make it funny, but with good racing scenes.(old school kicking new school ass) I could write an original sound track for it! I have an 18 track workstation and instruments. Just a thought.

 

[Sparky]

I thought thats what the Riced and the Ridiculus really proved; old school kicked new schools ass in both movies (as far as I'm concerned). The Charger was winning in the 1st one, and the Camaro and Challenger, well, need I say more :drool: (I know, I know, not old school imports, but the point is still true)

Yea I've seen that Lupin one, the guys a thief I think. They play it on Cartoon Network, but I've never really seen that show, or the MK2 in the show.

Thanks! suprasrock provided the pictures, and I modified them accordingly.
