Looking on the above picture, do not misunderstand that the car in this picture fly over our City of Bangkok. But the die cast car flew over it inside a box of Air Cargo. In the past years while the era had not had any tender from the Website as the present time, one of my friends who were one of a leading collector, he knew me and kindly bid it from Vectis Model Auction for me from England. I have to say thank you to him once again. It makes us to have the opportunity to see this real Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Die cast Car.
Chitty Chitty Bang Bang was created the output of this Die cast. It took a full year to projected filming in England in 1967 and projecting in 1968 by Walt Disney. This fiction related from Eian Flamings just the same man who had written the story of James Bond 007. This novel was printed in 1964. The leading actor was Dix Vann Dike, concerning a venturous family of Potts whose son was kidnapped for a ransom in France. They had to trace their son to return as soon as possible by using the miracle car to fly and running in the water.
Over 35 years, this cinema is still dominated a championship for hitting the children in 2003. A vote from the parents and around 8,000 children by surveying from renting VDO shops “Choices” in England. The announcer of Harcell Arding shop said, this cinema is complete with everything and exciting imagination. The performers were interesting, loving and scaring. The second favorite cinema was surveyed by E.T. the Extraterrestrial. It resulted the cinema of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang had snatched the championship in the end.
It seems to be that the leading actor of this cinema might be the magic car that could travel everywhere. The appearance is very colorful with flying wings. The rear of the car looked like a boat to run in the water. This was assembled against the present time by real assembly car approximately in 1910. One thing was clearly seen that the horn of the car in the cinema has ever used by Mercedes Benz in 1913 that had a dragon shape horn. At present, it was kept in the museum of Benz in Germany. The Rolls Royce in 1914 Wood Body, the rear of the car look alike a boat and snake shaped horn.
In the same year the cinema has been projected in 1968, Corgi, the leading assembled car of England had introduced car from the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to assemble the die cast for 16 cm. in length, with a good quality of materials. The color is proportionate with the beauty mainly the car spare parts were made from metal, front light was crystal, and the spoke was metal. It has a mechanic to collapse the big wings by using hand brake to operate the system. Besides this it has a figure from the cinema on the car painting by hand the same as on the above picture to stick to the Film for a beauty. The assembly of the car used a small amount of the quantity materials to be made. Therefore, the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang to have favoritism with a very high price. At present, the die casting is regarded as a history.
Nearly almost 40 years, the cinema of the Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, always dominates the children along with the adults forever
