Collection of Citroen ads

I heard, back when TF 07 was still just a rumour, that the ads did influence the films.

On a side note I'd like to add that Hasbro should totally get the licence to make the cars from these ads.

I'd love to see those cars too. I read a story that the ads were actually a CGI test to see if they could pull that off...

I have a lovely Mazda RX8 but have no idea how to get him to stand up. The feet don't make sense.

Are you talking about the Alternator mold that was used for Jazz and Shockblast?

I'm not sure about what you mean about Jazz and Shockblast. I've never seen those. I just found this in an anime shop and liked the look of the car.

But yes it's a Silver Mazda RX8. Do you know how to get those feet to stand there's a few flaps and bendy bits and it never quite sits right for me.

They reused molds a lot in that line so I probably missed some. What I do is pull the bumper out and turn it in inward. Then I move the piece in the middle down to work like the heel. You just stand it with the inside of the feet.

Pictures are always helpful so here's one. Look at how the right foot is

Thankyou so much that picture is very helpful.

I might try again to transform him. The other issue is that when you do the bonnet of the car and head it makes the bonnet pop off and fall to the side..
