The number of Spinners
So, how accurate is the Master Replicas aka Sideshow Collectibles aka Insight Editions 2049 Spinner? For the past two decades, the larger Spinner models came out from various sources such as Randy Cooper (1/12th), Medicom (1/18th), and Fujimi (1/24th). And just recently, it was the heft ~1/22 from MR/ SC/ IE. And yes, most were up in arms about its colour and lack of opening doors, etc.
The Reference Source
But for me, since I have one now, my main question is, how accurate is it? The following blueprint was used to create the life-size prop in the Movie and would be about 8’11” in length. This was how I got the scale of the MR/ SC/ IE Spinner (~1/22) and the Threezero’s 3.75″ (1/49) (assuming the scale of the Fujimi (1/24) is correct, which I did not measure). But seriously, I am not going to go ga-ga on this. Rather, I am more interested in the overall shape of the Vehicle. I’ve been staring so long at it, it’s starting to look more like a squashed frog…
