  3. I don't get ri of the boxs,but I won't pay extra for a metal tin.if there was more parts or more detailed kit parts then I would but just for a to pay for a metal box....no way! Thanks,Chris
  4. I prefer art work.my imagination builds on what has been put on the box.it influences my imagination and I want to build it.I will choose real art work over the others.plus the art looks so much better to me.the artist almost always creats a back ground and most of the other pictures don't.Thanks,Chris
  5. I'll see it when it hits DVDs or Blueray.I hate listening to bad language or scences like your discribing but I can can mute it all. I don't know about others but bad language a nudity scenes bothed me it makes it not enjoyable to me and I get angry instead of enjoying it,but thats me.I'm sure I'll take beatings from the way I think but its me.Thanks,Chris
  6. Boy do I have to agree.watching two nitro cars in the pits area is not believable it has to be experienced.there is no words to describe that feeling and thoughts going through your head and chest.the other races are great but nitro.....unbelievable.that race between Courtney and John sounds like fun.I'm to far away from that track.I live about 15 minutes from RMR here is SLC.I've seen many races from there.but I think Vegas is the closes to see Pro nitro cars from NHRA race.Thanks,Chris
  7. I use many tools I collected over the years.some I bought some I made.i use a DC dremel that I made a control pot for that slows the speed down and it has a very fine small saw blade in.I put it in backwards so it don't cut me and so it don't do damage to the plastic.it has worked great for me.some are electric and some manual tools.you find what works for you.Thanks,Chris

I want four each of the two different ones of the Ford pickups coming out soon.I can't wait to see them so my future plans start in my head.I think for months on what I want them to be.as for the other part of this discussion.I'm not a "spender" I/4 of the kits I have are for parts.and I love having my own personal store here.I build everyday.in between looking here on whats going on MCM I'm building.I have hopes of building everything plus more.but if my life ends before....then my wife will sell it...which will help her.thanks,Chris

Good work on getting rid of those molded in exhaust....I always thought that was a dumb I idea for that kit sense they were producting kits already with separate exhaust systems.keep us updated I want to see more.by the way when I was a kid I also built one and it took awhile for me to find the kit I had as a kid of 13 the kit..meaning box art.I wanted was this one http://images108.fotki.com/v1623/photos/6/1250606/12273110/photo-vi.jpg
