Behold the Fantasticar

The Fantasticar (left), the speedy hovercraft of Marvel Comics' familial superquartet, will debut in "Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer," the sequel to last year's family-friendly hit ($155 million domestic) that hits theaters June 15. USA Today offers the first reveal at the Fantasticar. A brief description from Scott Bowles' article:

"In the movie, the Fantasticar is powered by a proton accelerator, can hover, fly at 500 mph and break into separate flying machines. And while the 4,000-pound model doesn't move without the assistance of a crane or casters, it's still an impressive piece of space-age polymer. Conceptual artist Tim Flattery worked 10 months designing and building the Fantasticar, which will enjoy a life after the movie in sequels and on the auto-show circuit."
