Agora Models Lotus Esprit The Spy Who Loved Me 1:8 Model Kit

Agora Models has released the James Bond Lotus Esprit The Spy Who Loved Me 1:8 Model Kit subscription.

Build your own museum-quality 1:8 scale model of Bond’s gadget-laden Lotus Esprit from The Spy Who Loved Me, with fully operational motorised features and Q upgrades from the underwater scenes.

Complete with working propellers, lights, firing mini-guns and many more details, this is the most detailed model kit of the Lotus Esprit 'Wet Nellie' ever offered.

Made in collaboration with EON Productions and Lotus, Agora Models of England are specialists in luxury builds for collectors. The die-cast metal kit requires no painting, each part pre-painted, and ready to assemble using tiny screws. 

All the features of this high-performance Lotus Esprit are authentically replicated, including the 907 4-cylinder engine, pop-up headlights, functioning brake lights and indicators, & detailed badges. The die-cast bodywork is colour-matched in Monaco White.

MOTORIZED PROPELLERS
Four rear propellers include motors to power them electronically.

HARPOONS AND TORPEDOES
The torpedo launcher is loaded with two harpoons and four heat-seeking torpedoes.

AIR DEFENCE SYSTEM
Four surface-to-air missiles are concealed in launchers within the rear window.

ROTATING FINS
Four hydroplane fins and two tail fins used for stabilization change direction.

NAUTICAL CONTROLS
The nautical controls and radar monitor used for operating the vehicle in submarine form are illuminated.

JET SPRAYERS
Press the rear number plate to reveal the concealed ink sprayers.

REMOTE CONTROL
The spinning propellors, headlights and interior lighting are all operated by hand-held remote control.

Each month, for 12 months, you receive a box containing sections of the car to build.

According to Agora, the car is easy to put together. Most of the work is screwing together, there is very little glueing, and it all comes pre-painted to museum quality.
