Excellent.

Thanks for posting.

One of the most original pop videos I've ever seen. Clearly the people behind it have made models to do such a good interpretation. Great little touches all the way through.

What! No comments about how the figures are under-sized or could have been done better by DML?

Now that was cool. The ace with the half head kind of looked like Jim Morrison.

Boy , I haven't watched music videos since the 80's!!! The star on the box had me fooled for a sec. Thought it was a Tamiya box Interesting though

Eh. They could use some Hornet heads.

Clever video with attention to detail.

Yep, very well done...

And the music wasn't all that annoying, while watching the video...

Now if the lizzard or the bugler and who knows what they're all called, would do a band, I would jump in and get one!!

Just as e refreshing sidestep.....

Now that IS brilliant! A very well directed clip too.
I don't know that Tamiya had anything to do with this though; more a case of the most recognisable packaging methinks. Would hazard a guess and say that either a band member or associate does a bit of modelling in their spare time!
