Hmm, I guess it must be made up. But it is pretty similar to real ones:

Probably based on the same chassis, if not a similar one, they're both buggies either way.

But im definately getting my hands on this one. I might buy 3 of him.

For some reason I figured they based it on a VW Bug chassis... probably because they made a lot of kit cars like that.

The more original movie-styled characters (one's not in the movie) Just keep looking better and better, in my opinion. I'm definately picking this guy up, maybe even a second one for repainting (Swindle, anyone?)

Digging the posability, given his odd anatomy. Bears a slight resemblance to Classics Mirage in that respect- that dude is like Voldo, he's that flexible.
