Thanks!

Is this supposed to be Bogart ??? LOL

It's James Belushi

Will be sitting perfectly next to Takom's "Grant"

Wouldnt it be Takoms Lee,at least thats what one forum told me ?

Correct, my mistake

Maybe it's worth to wait for MiniArts upcoming Lee (Early, with interior) instead of wrestling with Takoms kit.

Wasn't it Miniart that did the cast figure se from the original "Sahara" movie? How did Bogie look in that one?

Masterbox does an entire set based on the belushi sahara,its called allied forces.

To my knowledge no one has done the Bogart Sahara crew in plastic or resin. Maybe Takom will issue a special edition M3 kit with this figure and "Lulubelle " markings.

Bogart' s features can be pretty hard to depict maybe the sculptor just balked or no one watches the original anymore. It is in black and white!

I just watched it last week (the original). Still a darn good movie!
