Title: Well, now I have seen everything! Post by: RazorbackNOR on June 21, 2012, 08:35:11 am Was just surfing and googling for some Murena pics and other fun things, somehow a notice on Inspector Gadget kept popping up.
Checked it out on Wikipedia and guess what I found! :o "Inspector Gadget is the main protagonist of the series and movies. He dresses like Inspector Clouseau, drives a Matra Murena car and acts like Maxwell Smart, who was portrayed by Gadget's voice actor Don Adams. The clueless Gadget frequently bungles during his cases and gets into danger, but he always gets out of trouble through either his trusty gadgets, Penny or Brain's unseen assistance, or pure luck. One of his most famous catch-phrases in the series is "Wowsers!" While he would never succeed in completing a mission by himself without Penny and Brain, they usually would not succeed in completing a mission themselves without Inspector Gadget as his gadgets unintentionally help foil the MAD agents' plans." I shit you not! Although I myself doesn't think it looks THAT much like a Murena thou... More like a Toyota Supra og Nissan 300ZX, but if they say its a Murena, we'll just be happy with it, shouldn't we...? ;D http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inspector_Gadget (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inspector_Gadget) Title: Re: Well, now I have seen everything!

But wikipedia is user generated and edited. I suspect that a Matra Murena fan, perhaps even yourself ;) thought it would be fun to change the name of his car. :D :D :D Title: Re: Well, now I have seen everything!

But this was for the animated series, and no, it wasn't me. :D (http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_ydpWB-VnmEM/SPuxkl43ISI/AAAAAAAABcU/9ujWa5cB9DI/s400/gadgetCar.jpg) Title: Re: Well, now I have seen everything!
