here is the link if anyone wants to purchase 1-2 who mobiles

there are 3 versions, no windscreen (calling it a Star Wars version), Alien version (personally owned Jon Pertwee car that started established the tv series whomobile and TV Series version.

Aside from the pinball mod versions these is also some collector versions:
- Pinball Mod Version has the mounting in the seat for installation in a pinball
- The Collector Version has a full seat and has a base design with a intake and 4 hover jets - purely my take on what could be there - BUT not meant for a pinball install unless you want to install else where in the game.

Each pinball version has a pocket underneath for installation of leds to be hot glued in to allow for light to be shot through the 4 headlight holes.

Unfortunately the 3d printed multicoloured option from Shapeways is rubbish so I won't be an option and I don't have the skills to paint the details. A Pinsider "Modfather" who has great painting skills has offered to paint 2 whomobile vehicles for $35USD total for 2 vehicles plus shipping back to you. I will also supply a hardware kit with a tap, screws and allen keys to Modfather to then tap and supply a small hardware kit (2 x m4 screws and a 1 x M2.5 allen key) to anyone that gets the vehicles painted via Modfather making it a fairly painless process to get these painted and ready for installation. In addition he also can hook up leds for a small fee but best to contact him directly. I still have to see if Shapeways can allow you to purchase and have the vehicles sent to Modfather directly at a $5 fee, not sure as think you can only have sent to an alternative address in the same country. But no harm in asking if he can purchase on your behalf with you paying him back immediately.
