  1. Sheesh...9 emails...a false promise....an uneasy feeling and finally no order...wasted time and almost never seeing your money from someone you put your trust in....success?
  2. Awesome!!!...." Why don't you...turn me loose....turn me loose........turn me loose!"
  3. Sounds like we should create a " Red Flag List" off site so consumers are aware ...and can decide if they should do business or not....with that person
  4. Man If you can scale up to 1/12 big n littles....and throw in some centreline rims....for my Doyusha Firebird....you can gladly take my money!
  5. Why is so hard for these guys to put up a formal annnoucement like...Hey I will no longer be taking orders....Or Im closing up shop...your money will be refunded.....or Hey Im back logged..... your gonna have to wait 10 months....Be it personal or business related...just quick notice to let customers know whats going on. In this day and age of online shopping...we customers rely on e-mail response..updates..annoucement..etc We can't just drive up to your "store" and ask for a refund! Or see that your out of business...or order blindly because you haven't got pictures of products. Facebook is the quickest and easiest way to update customers..show new products..whats discontinued...etc If I wanted to sell my product...I certainly wouldnt want to make my customers struggle just to get information. I see people constantly asking about a product..who makes it?...how do get a hold of the guy?...does he have pictures of his stuff? Is he still making these? It shouldn't be this hard to do business and get on with our lives..
  6. ld like to do the Persuit Special...in Mad Max
  7.     Does the chassis from the revell Torino line up with the Falcon? or are you splicing the two chassis' together? Can you show pics?
  8. Yes i have this bookmarked. I just watched..... Love the Beast.....and I'm following Bana's rebuild....
  9. Dave , Thank you so much for the refrence photo...that looks tricky. Can someone vaccu-form this?
  10. Kevin, Awesome conversion!...May i ask what you used to make the rear glass? Does the rear glass have any contour in the 1:1 or is it fairly flat?
  11. I would've rather you had taken my request of 2 sets...waited 4-6 weeks for it...that way I'd know i'd get it for sure and saved on shipping charges....I've had to keep checking ebay for availablity...and fight to win the bidding. I would've gladly paid you ( a fair price) upfront and get put on a waiting list..I'm sure a lot of people would do the same. Your way of selling "what is done" DOES drive the price up. I see that you waited until the last listing ended...then posted a new listing immediately after...instead of posting multiple listings
  12. wouldve made a nice rat rod....nice patina
  13. I've had to bid twice...pay $27 + shipping twice and wait months in between just to get my two sets....Then i find out that the Newest version (super detail kit)...has got the RW version interior...not correct for MM1...so now i need the original interior tub with the centre console...
  14. Its sold slowly on purpose......so you all fight for it and pay a ridiculous price for it....i've asked the seller for 2. sets up front....and he said to me...that the "guy" only gives it to him 1 at a time! This is so YOU believe its a rare item and jump at it regarless of price......I've seen one a couple days ago....then another yesterday...SAME seller....on e-bay.....
  15. http://www.tomotorsports.com/ Here the link...they wont charge you until they get them in...I think you'll pay for shipping from toronto to your place....meantime you can watch for updates on Scale Autoworks.
  16. Thats crazy....thats alot of money up front...Is your LHS charging you for the shipping aswell? Is there a markup too?..I know of 1 store in Scarborough Ontario pricing them from $799 CN...Ill find the link...and see what their conditions are.
  17. I have a Doyusha 1/12. Corvette Stingray..If you are interested....for more info PM me
  18. Its looking pretty good from the online pics and the online brochure....I'm sure if a transkit comes out...It will address any areas of concern. I'm sure there are those who will putty and repaint everything anyway. And from a collectors point...this being their first comeback car...surely there is some value in that.
  19. According to Scale Autoworks and Hornby...The Aventador is closer to $800...production starting in August...White version will not continue in 2014 but Orange will...along with another colour TBA.
  20. they say a typical modeller spends about $50 every 2 weeks....on model related products. I figured by the time the kit arrives...i should have it paid for....i look at it as a piece of art which appreciates in value....my car costs about 30k....and its starting to be a money pit...so a car for $850????.....you could probably get 4 of these before you get that 1:1 certified, insured, emission tested, painted, tinted, rims and tires, stereo....etc...etc...etc... Better yet buy 4 of these...build them....sell them for $1500 each and buy a better beater....
  21. I really like the matt black (Nero Nemesis Matt Finish)...its a $14,000 upgrade on the real car. I hope a transkit will follow soon after the kits release....I should probably start saving for that too
  22. I know!!! Im paying monthly for this....but still not as pricey as the 4.7 million dollar one
  23. http://www.scaleautoworks.com/ I've signed up for this beast...anybody else?..I think... I'll also wait for a transkit to detail this baby up. It comes in Orange or White...but I think I'll repaint matt black! http://vellanowheels.com/m/viewmodel.php?style=VKK_c&brand=Lamborghini&url=lp700_2
