  1. Came home with this stack on Saturday, sadly, only the stack on the right is mine
  2. Wrong company, Beemax is doing the Cruze WTCC kit
  3. These photos belong to Makoto Shimizu and is the builder
  4. Yes I do hear its real nice as a floor polish though.
  5. Singapore http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tamiya-1-24-Mercedes-Benz-300SL-Gullwing-1954-338-In-Hand-Now-/261821138288?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cf5c18570 Japan http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tamiya-24338-1-24-Sports-Car-Series-No-338-1-24-Mercedes-Benz-300-SL-Toy-Car-/221720406705?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item339f90eab1 Japan http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tamiya-24338-Mercedes-Benz-300-SL-1-24-Model-Kit-Sports-Car-Serious-PreOrder-/331506485790?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4d2f538a1e
  6. And it works both ways, US kits are about $10 and up over USA MSRP in Japan
  7. Thats how it always is, its the marked up import price, take for example Tamiya's LA Ferrari , you can get for around $40 from Japan, or $90 here in the USA
  8. Like mentioned by a few, the only Testors cans I use are the Wet Look Clear and the Dullcote.
  9. Box art done for the Aventador
  10. Box art approved the VW Polo and a completed pre production build
  11. Some more test shots , and released date is said to be in June
  12. I can not believe I forgot to slice the decal around the fuel door , going to take care that, glad you pointed that out.
  13. As of now, if there is no Clarkson, there is no Top Gear in its current state with James and the Hampster, if this report is true
  14. It is good stuff, I have a bottle of it , I have been trying out Loctite's G02 Glue, its like a super glue that dries crystal clear, now the issues with it, one, it takes a good time for it set, so they are many times that you have to put pressure on whatever part, two, while it does clear, you can still see the bead.
  15. Built this shortly after it came out, all I did was put some Aoshima decals on it, decided, why not make a FedEx truck too( I know, exciting I am ), so printed some decals off.
  16. Here is Tamiya's Hiace van in some FedEx decals, I did the decals myself, I also tired to hinge the rear doors but failed miserably at it
  17. Here are a couple of rebuilders, I built these shortly after I got back into the hobby , and I did a craptastic job on them.
  18. Finished it up, had to do the "Field Operations" decals myself, did not get the right right color matched, oh well, added mesh on the inside of the rear windows,added roof straps to the lightbar , decals are Bill Bozo
  19. I was just going to ask, what CA's are safe for clear plastic
  20. The only thing that would make me complain about this kit thus far is if the roof had a scale 4inch chop to it.
  21. Whats the big deal about the trunk lid not opening ?
