Another run of old boring drag cars. Well, at least the ancient builders will be happy but they will bitch about the price and why it's not at ollies.. The Xtreme is an interesting choice, at least that might have a broader market since the mini trucks are starting to make a comeback at the car shows. , Happy Aoshima is pushing out modern cars for the rest of us.

very impressive -
THis is not a diecast this is a reissue which includes a 64 scale diecast. THis is something both revell and amt did years ago.

Smart car rolling on Gold Wire D's
Model Builders Mafia replied to Model Builders Mafia's topic in Model Cars
I worked for a company that had them as Promo cars, I drove it once in a while, annoyingly under powered, But did enjoy the few dollars it took to fill the tanks. Was also fun to get it up on 2 wheels Joey chitwood style. -
Smart car rolling on Gold Wire D's

Thank You -
Quick little fun build, I Screwed up a bit on the paint but whatever. This is a Smart for Two Revell kit. I added a set of Pegusas Gold D's. There is a Speaker box in the back but sadly you cannot see it. The Paint is Tropical Glitz Miami Night Life With a ridiculous amount of metal flake. Typical over the Top Miami.

This was a fun project That started out as the old AMT International Paystar 5000. I shortened the chassis and moved the rear axle forward to match up with the 3D printed Service body. The Crane, generator, and welder were all part of the print. The Paint was a custom test color from my buddy Manny at Tropical Glitz.The Scroll decals were a royal pain but I like the look. The figure is from Iceman Collections

Snore... Another lame boring mustang. Just like the real thing

Stranger things is a huge money maker, and revell want to get in on that $$$ The subjects you mentioned maybe be exciting to you, but don't have the wow factor on the shelf. Sorry but the 65 and up mustangs are incredible boring cars. especially the latest generation.

The last of the V8 interceptors. Or is most people know it as Mad Max's car from the Road Warrior. Okay okay before anyone freaks out no it's not an exact replica of the one in the movie this is my take on it few little tweaks. You can see on the interior I added a little something to remember that technically braveheart drove this car. Other than that basically built out of the box just some different paint color callouts on the stuff in the back it's hard to see but there is a can of dog food and a case of dog food inside and a little go-go juice can other than that this is built straight out of the box it's an aoshima kit. Painting black on black on black was kind of interesting not really sure that you can even tell that there are different colors on there but I like it. The only thing I will say semi-negative on this kit is that the mounting points are very very small so when you go to put a couple of parts of the suspension together just be careful cuz it's easy to misalign with the way the mounting holes are and yes I know I lost the tail light but hey it's the road warrior you'll be driving around the outback you going to lose something

Moebius Wrecker Truck Announcement
Model Builders Mafia replied to Erik Solie's topic in Truck Kit News & Reviews
Got MIne yesterday from Model Roundup -
It’s a lovely day in New Jersey, however, someone did something stupid and now they're wrapped up in the trunk and about to go for a long dirt nap. But be careful what you say and do because there's always a rat around… The two Brothers at the back of the car are Vito and Carmine they got the call to take care of the the thing. It's not the first thing, but the other thing. As you can see Carmine has made a complete and utter mess of himself and Vito doesn't look so happy about the situation so they're having a little bit of a conversation over some Jack Daniels. Everything's been paid for as you can see on the front seat they just need to take care of what's in the trunk. The stupid part is they borrowed their boss's car with a vanity plate to do this job.. The Cadillac is the reissue Cadillac Lowrider, The Figures are from icemancollections and The Woodgrain dash stickers are from detailjunkees if you have this kit I highly highly recommend them.
