This Vintage 1985 Matchbox Cyclone, has been retrofitted with resin parts designed by myself, like the new engine, this one more alike the design of the animation than the one made by Matchbox, which in fact, corresponded to Rook Bartley's bike. I drew in 3D the classic gun from rand's Cyclone, then printed it with U.V. Resin, and then took silicone rubber molds out of the printed master, and created casts with Polyurethane Resin, tinted with the tone of the Cyclone. The windshield is a resin copy of the Matchbox original, but this time made with transparent resin, to match the look of the anime. The seat is also resin with colorant. The exhaust pipes are modified copies of the Matchbox ones, with some corrections, like been hollow on the end to make them look more realistic.
I also have made a new front light and rear turbine exhaust to retrofit the Vintage Matchbox Cyclone.
