I did look at that one and was considering removing the picture, and the offending picture has now been removed.
Chris sorry but I had to edit your post to remove the link.

which one? I guess you mean a sex-toy conversion?
This year Norwegian IPMS had "experimental" category where you could build whatever you want.

"Experimental" would be the right word for it.

Mig is 1/32 scale.
Unfortunately Skala is dominated by aero and car modelleres, so not many pictures are available...

Hi
Isn't it a strange world of values we live in that images of models showing weapons used for destruction, to kill and seriously injury human beings and scenes depicting such destruction is deemed okay to view but the image of somebody taking an object, in this case a vibrator, putting wheels on it to look like some streamlined car or rocket, with no reference to its possible original use whatsoever, could then find that offensive.

Just so we're clear on this? I wasn't offended by the image. I just asked what kit is was. I'm sure the wife would have gotten into building if I got her one.

As per "model specification" - Adult toy that got wheels from MPC 1932 Ford, vibrator itself was bought for 15USD in local sex shop and has 2 batteries and 7 frequences

I have one of those 1/32 polaris ATV's and they are a good scale. I'm thinking of making mine into a CCT quad. I think a member on here somewhere was modifying one.

LOL, as a father of four I can easily say that I would be seriously worried if any of the younger ones even knew what that was. Not nearly as offensive to me as the overweight dude in the Speedo in one of the photos. A close-up? Seriously???At the same time, slapping a set of wheels on any old household item is SO uninspired. That was only meant for the shock value. Put some flames, a blower and a cockpit (no pun intended) on it and maybe you have something.
Best comment is to use it as a means to get your wife into modelling. Problem is she'd not want to put wheels on it so there goes the modeling. Unless of course you need to keep her occupied so YOU can build???
