Lucky Luke: The Undertaker and his Hearse

The undertaker and his hearse, one of the most characterful sets in the range.


Zaccaria Ripp, aka "Le croquemort", one of the most wonderful words in the French language and one of the most archetypical characters of westerns through the ages. Figure is a repainted model from Editions Atlas.

Who couldn't love that face?

 Le corbillard du Croquemort. What's the undertaker without his hearse? Another repaint of Editions Atlas, the hearse is completely made from metal (no resin bits unlike some of the other vehicles in the range). The wreath (la couronne) is not yet glued in place as I'm debating to glue it to the side of the hearse as is shown in one of the promotional pictures. 

A slick black ride like that must be popular with the ladies...

 And the traditional "after and before" shots:
