OK, I see different things under member names, "member" "MCM friend" "member and avid poster" and theres probably more, but what the heck is a Ohana ? isnt that the terrorist we just killed in pakistan ? And how does one aquire a Member, or a avid member,or a ohana title ? Are these self given or does the board give these out ? I just noticed I'm a "friend" what gives on these ?

kingiguana replied to 59-Desoto's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
If they were trying for a "retro" look, they failed ! Looks like almost any other mini-van,.....and I despise mini-vans. At least the old parrot nose bus had character, but this is UGLY ! with a capital "U" that rhymes with "poo" and that's what it looks like,...."Poo" It will probably cost a small fortune too !Justmy 2 cents !! -
Two thumbs up ! Great color choices

How do you build a satsh of parts????
kingiguana replied to DRG's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Pretty much what everyone elseis saying. And heres somgood news, after raiding a kit for the parts You like, and You want,....put the rest in a baggie,or whatever. And take them to a show,and sell them or trade them. Remember one man's trash,is another mans treasure. Or list them on Ebay or Craigs list. -
Straight from the depths of hell,comes the thing we all fear,......If You see one move this year, You must see,....."THE THING WITH 3 EYES ! "! *Insert evil laugh and blood curdling scream here.

Very cool ! and I like the six popper ! really gives it the cool factor.
-
Wow !!, a stock one of those ! I'm not sure of the year so I'm not going to guess. But, I don't believe I've ever seen a stock one !

Beautiful, nice paint, I like it,...except the bling wheels arent my cup of tea. I'm sure I'm not alone on that :-)
-
I like it !! Totally cool looking, how did You achieve the plaid pattern ?

For die cast, I use automotive stripper, they sell cans of it at auto stores,....no the kinda stuff You'd use on plastic at all ! but great on diecast.

Real or Model #155 FINISHED!
kingiguana replied to Harry P.'s topic in Real or Model? / Auto ID Quiz
I voted real, grille, fender brace, tires. If its a model, thats one hell of a model ! Might be a large scale. but Im stil going with real. -
Are you a "scale snob?"
kingiguana replied to ian ashton's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yes, I have to agree, although I will build 1/25 and 1/24 kits, buty I will try to keep them separated. I prefer 1/25th. You know people see the "4" and the "5" I think whats the difference? And its really noticeable when You compare the same car in the two different scales. Or when a 1/24 vette is almost as big as a 1/25th impala. Of course a lot of the old AMT kits were 1/25th but out of scale, since the had to fit those promo boxes back then. -
OK, I just seen a preview of Fast 5. This looks like the dumbest yet. Why do they insist on making these into some kind of crime/action flick, with some fake car action intermixed. Plus a rock, and I mean a rock can out-act any of these so called actors. A movie, should be made once, and only once, sequels are always a step down, but these 4 and five part sequels ? really ? why?

New hot rod movie coming in 2011!
kingiguana replied to Rick R's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
Yes, I guess its a a case of to each his own, to put it in simple terms To me a movie is either good, or bad,....at least I'll give the older movies one thing,,,,NO CGI ! Man I hate that stuff ! it put stunt men and model makers out of work I bet for the most part. -
New hot rod movie coming in 2011!
kingiguana replied to Rick R's topic in General Automotive Talk (Trucks and Cars)
I also have to add that American Grafitti was great and so was Hollywood Knights. But as for Two Lane Blacktop ? except for the cars and a couple race scenes it was horrible. A friend of mine and I borrowed it from a mutual friend (Tom) and we were told its the best car movie ever. We watched it, and both of us to this day wondered why? why is it considered good ? The acting was the worst, the dialoge was even worse, the characters,and the movie in general, and everything about it was bad, real bad. The ending was the icing on the bad cake. We re-wound it, and returned it to Tom, and asked him,......what have You been smoking? And as for the F&F movies, ppppuuukkkeeeeee !! barrrffffff ! Only the Charger was a good, everything and everyone else blllaaahhh ! But thats just my opinion. -
