Felix delivers the radio remote control just bevor the Janus TV team arrives. What a monster! It will bring the real size Scorcher to bear.
Daniel and Konrad examine the R/C very critical, but can't do anything but raising their hats to Felix's work.
The Janus crew starts filming directly after their arrival, not wasting any time. It's going to be a long day for everybody. The last workings will be filmed, that means they will take longer than without a camera, because you have to stop for a different angle, or redo a step and so on.
Now it's getting thrilling. The stickers are here. Markus "Maeggs" Luber (left) from Repro-Net traced every single sticker that is shown on the artwork. Now he sticks the big ones to the real size Scorcher, while Michael Mehrl holds the box with the artwork for reference.
The last little things get attached to the car, always monitored by the camera. That doesn't bother Franz (right) - he is cool with it. Or at least he does, as if he wasn't excited.
Finally Thomas Peter, Senior Marketing Manager of Tamiya Germany, arrives. He's not only bringing back Walters vintage Scorcher, he has also a very special surprise for him.
Walter gets the very first re-release Sand Scorcher kit as a gift. With all the bells and whistles and naturally signed by Mr. Peter. He is really delighted, but tries to look cool.
Now he knows what to do at the weekend. Walter and Max will build the new Scorcher and after finishing the build, they will fold the box and put it in the trash can.
Okay, just kidding!
Daddy Scorcher and little baby Scorcher posing for the camera - of course both with a corresponding Acoms R/C.
Finally we have to make the Scorcher alive. Walter turns the key and the trusty aircooled engine starts up right away, with a throaty sound coming from the chromed stinger. To bad that you can't hear it...
A long day comes to its end, but there are satisfied faces all over the place. Robert (left) and Franz are happy about the positive feedback. Can you get a better acknowledgement for your work than a huge media interest? Who wouldn't be happy to have a magazine or a TV station featuring your car after years of work?
Last impression of that eventful Friday. Now there will be three days of peace before we will hit the road to the Toy Fair in Nürnberg, Germany.
