Default Can someone make one of these please??

Here is what I want!

The sound is shockingly BAD, I know, but hey, it's pretty amusing anyway - Imagine if they really did make a mistake like that when building something??!!

'It's perfectly formed, but there's just one tiny problem with it sir'
'Too right there is, you've built it the wrong size man!!
It's meant to be a jumbo jet but it's only half the size! what are we going to do with it!?'
'Err, it can still carry passengers, just very small passengers...'

And the best line of all:

'Shall we wrap it or will you take it as it is?'

:YouTube - Jimbo and the Jet Set episode 1


Scale doesn't matter much, I just want a Jimbojet!

Wadda ya say Mr Klein and Co??

Or, maybe one of the Remote Control bods could make one!

Well, I like the scale on the wall of the factory:

The top line is Jumbo Jet,

then

Big plane
Medium plane
Small plane
Very silly plane

then, right at the bottom where jimbo is, it simply reads

HAW! HA! HA! HAW!

So, err, sommat big wouldn't be too much of a problem, I don't mind exactly what it is thanks.

Also, did I hear that right?? was the girl in the factory REALLY called Labia ... in a kids cartoon??

the guy says

'Would you like to do the honours ....' and then the word that I cannot make out properly.

I'm sure I don't have to say what sort of connotations that would bring up if it were the case and, it was real!

Oh well, whatever, it seems overall that animators were able to show much more a sense of humour in those days!

'The kids won't know any better, so lets take the piss slightly!'
