  1. I will be very happy
  2. Nice
  3. From Aoshima is the Toyota Crown Athlete from the Vlene Japan tuning car company, built OOB minus the camber, paint is Tamiya Black.
  4. I got mine from Hobby Link Japan, Hobby Search is another place you can get one, more than likely, Ebay as well
  5. I built this one to replace the one I built a few years ago, it is painted in Hot Lava from SF
  6. Yes, this one of many that I will be building of the 2016 86, anyways, the 2016 facelifted 86, new bumpers, grill/driving lights, headlight/taillights, spoiler , shark fin antenna and wheels. On to the kit, painted Scion Ultramarine Blue from Scale finishes , I did this a US spec, but the US does not get the spoiler that comes in the kit, and I think I put the GT86 emblem on the trunk on the wrong side( instructions say left, photos show right). The wheels, out of habit I freed them of their chrome plating only to realize I needed them chromed, not having an chrome products on hand, I painted them with Tamyia Black, and then used Alclad Polished Aluminum, I am actually very pleased with how they turned out.
  7. Straight forward build, painted with Tamiya Gunmetal
  8. I am pretty sure this should be posted in the Truck section Couldnt wait to build this one, pretty straight forward build, no issues, deiced to keep it stock :D, painted it with Model Master Aluminum.
  9. Sad news indeed, least he isnt suffering anymore.
  10. I remember that happening the last time I do believe, I do agree, if you want one, do not wait too long get one.
  11. This has been out for awhile now, anyways, for the people looking to get one, it was good that Revell reissued it, the price on Ebay for one of the previous issues were darn near around $100.
  12. Interesting, his account never indicated that he was/is a mod, I wonder if that was done on purpose, or if the updated software no longer has a moderator group or changes the user's account info over to show moderator. That is helpful for users when they need to contact someone from the forum and knowing who to contact(like a mod).
  13. You are going to love Powesilde Decals, Mike does a wonderful job with his decals ( Powersilde Decals are Mike's Decals in house decals) .
  14. Because the tooling is being used for the snap and glue kit, my guess is to why the glue kit is getting the molded in drive shaft.
  15. Nice work Geoff
  16. Very cool, nice work
  17. Maybe one of the these days, I will share with you my patented lift gate system .
  18. I agree, it is a decent kit minus the issue that yourself and I have pointed out, you are the second person that has figured out the interior/engine bay insert is causing the some of the ride height issues. I want to add on to your comments about the suspension, I completely agree, they over complicated it for no payoff, but at the same time, they simplified the front suspension, bit of a head scratcher .
  19. At moment, there is not, and I am pretty sure someone is working on a set.
  20. You are recollecting correct.
  21. Well, "cool" is very much subjective , for some it might be, for some, it may not be
