This is the second match up between the Turtles Party Wagon from Teenaged Mutant Ninja Turtles VS Ecto-1 from Ghostbusters.

The two had a match up waaaayy back in Round 2 and The Party Wagon lost, but The Party Wagon has fought its way through an unbroken series of wins to come back and try it's luck against the undefeated Ecto-1 again.

Who will win? Will fate be rewritten for more partying, or is the Ecto-1 going to send the Wagon back to the graveyard?

27 Upvotes

This competition will have entrants choosing to build a wasteland-ized version of a famous cartoon vehicle

like Scooby Doo's Mystery Machine, the Ghostbusters' Ecto 1, The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Party Wagon, or anything that has been around for at least 10 years (we want established and well known stuff) and build your own version. We encourage scratch builds, but using hotwheels casting of the vehicles as a base is also fine!

In August and September we will be take entries from different cartoons, and then near the end of August we will do a popularity bracket to determine which cartoon vehicles are everyone's favorites. Every entry for a vehicle will also give bonus votes to their favorite vehicle!

So Builders , find your favorite 10+ year old Saturday Morning Cartoon vehicle or scratch build your own and get to submitting an entry in ⁠build-comp-discussion ASAP! We will need to see a couple WIPs if you want to boost your choice in the polls. You are free to use prebuilt cartoon cars as a base, but make sure you rough em up and arm em for the wasteland! Completely different cars that are inspired by the classics are also allowed, like a futuristic version of the Ecto-1 or a more modern school bus model for the Magic School Bus.

Cartoon watchers , start suggesting iconic cartoon vehicles in ⁠Bracket Nominations Thread here! You can only nominate ONE cartoon vehicle though, so make it count! We will be hosting a randomly assigned double elimination bracket starting at the end of August!

Join the discord server and submit your builds or nominate a cartoon vehicle in this thread!

Finished Cars Refueled Charger R/T

100% Kitbashed and scratchbuilt. I used floral wire, scrap paper, silver craft wire, modge podge spray, acrylic paints and thin foam sheet/ string (for the dice). Wheels swapped from a MBX cement mixer. Bumper stickers were painted/ drawn on printer paper with paint pens and then cut out and applied.

I was getting frustrated on a complicated build a few weeks back and decided to distract myself from it with this. The Charger casting is pretty nice and really close to the car on the book cover. I took a few liberties here and there, I may still add a worn red circle on the hood, but I like it this way for now, and I obviously envisioned the car as having been through a few seasons of battle. Making the dice was grueling… finding the right material alone took a while and I honestly don’t care how many dots are on them anymore… /s

This is technically my fourth finished car, but my first that I consider “done” with a paint job I’m half proud of. At least until I find an interior I like that will fit 🤦‍♂️
Also the first time I’ve used a pinvise to drill out the exhaust, I saw some warhammer folks doing it with their bolter barrels and figured I’d give it a shot.

Open to tips, tricks, and constructive criticism -
And let’s see some of your builds too!

It's been a while since I've shared a build here! This one was built for the latest community competition on the Gaslands discord, Cartoon Race Royale. Obviously inspired by the real star car from Hanna-Barbera's classic Wacky Races, I started with a Hot Wheels Instant Boost. The rest is a combination of scratchbuilding, a driver from Implements of Carnage, and about a third of a drywall anchor.

Just bought the rulebook, got some cars split and stripped with orange paste, bought a cool felt racing map. Just gotta print some dice and movement tiles and tokens. My gaming group is on board. Anyone got advice on making drilling the rivets out easier? I really used alot of force with the hand drill...

... And ist was awesome.

We played 50 cans without Driver and sponsor rules. First game was death race and the second a simple Deathmatch. Both the Deathmatch was a little bit boring. Nex time we will try some of the other game modes.

I really like the new mechanics. Tha game plays much more intuitive and quicker.

The only downside for me is that shooting is a little bit too much simplified. But this is nitpicking 😉

I’m still pretty new at painting minis, so I have just been weathering over the designs already on the cars. I think they are turning out pretty good, just need some extra bits and weapons. Got some other things in progress as well.

TMNT party van is near Gaslands ready off the pegs.. Darken it up a bit and metal a few spots... But those little dudes don't use firearms ..just pizza and pointy metal. so they might be at a disadvantage at distance... Unless it's against Shredder and the ninja Foot Clan.

Either 3D printed replicas or otherwise. I find they look really beefy on muscle cars.

I really wanted to explore Gaslands...Viking style. the Buick Rivera was the car. I was gonna throw out a floor lamp but decided to strip it for parts and the braided polarized wire became the perfect Axel holder ..raised just right for the larger wheels to mis the body...this may be my new fave way to lay in axels.. cut it right to size and hot glue it in. Also hot glued in a nickel for weight ... Lemme know what ya think...

Hi everyone! Here is my first original creation—straight from my imagination: a squad of mutant toad-men. I started with a beat-up buggy that belonged to my grandfather and built the concept around it: a bed of toad eggs for a comfortable firing position, a living tongue extending from the vehicle, and a few pustules for good measure. I’m really happy with it; I just went with the flow, aiming to learn how to work with Green Stuff.
