  1. Playstation of course , then you have the PC guys calling them the master race for gaming Edit, I have owned PS1/XBOX and I currently have both a 360 and a PS3, soon PS4
  2. Thank you Steve, I can agree with that.
  3. Its of my opinion that the bigger size wheel looks better over the stock wheel size
  4. Both good kits, and I enjoyed building both of them, and hopefully will build a few more done the road, and I agree, the instruction sheet for the Prostar was very much an improvement, I am happy the listen and made the change.
  5. When I use reviews on products/business, I like to go with the overall score from them instead of what each review says. For instance, I was going to buy a new camera this month, a DSLR, and spent a lot of time reading reviews, both from people reviewing the camera for magazines/websties, and those of user reviews, while the camera got decent reviews from the user's , it got not so good reviews from the people doing it on the professional level , and just using Amazon as an example, it got like 4 out 5 stars, made it difficult to make a decision. But there were a few user reviews that matched what the professional reviewers said. I have not used Yelp yet, I should get the app and check it out.
  6. Thank you sir I should mention, since you mentioned it, the wheels, Aoshima did two versions of this kit ( I am sure you are aware of this Rob) one is the stock version which is the first photo, the second is a wheel option version, which, comes with the wheels that I used, now, I did not get the wheel option kit, but I happened to have a set of the same wheels on hand that the wheel option kit comes with, so I guess you can say, its box stock
  7. Steve, I want to ask you an honest question, and I in no way trying to start a argument with you, but why do model company's get a pass on their products when their are not as good as they could be ?.
  8. Toyota Dark Salsa Red , Aoshima SSR Professor VF1 20inch wheels, OOB for the rest How it looks with its stock wheels from the dealership And after the wheel swap
  9. Subaru World Rally Blue, OOB
  10. Here are some more test shot photos
  11. Thank you Rob for the correction, I was thinking of VW when I said TN.
  12. That is why I tend not to put much stock into reviews like those on Yelp, everyone has an opinion and different levels of expectations , of course, I am not saying that the reviews are not helpfull, but we know how people can be. People will say a company is the worst ever over the silliest of reasons.
  13. I thought it had something to do with where the company was based. So going by your logic, Toyota's are American because they are built by American's in Tennessee?
  14. When its launched across the room at the wall , thats when its done
  15. Neat
  16. The Cross fire is built on the Mercedes Benz R170 chassis platform, which was used for the SLK class , the CrossFire was 80% Mercedes Benz, not American. The only thing that is Chrysler on that car is the Emblem
  17. Sorry Rob, I had too
  18. You know its a global car market?, the days foreign vs domestic are long gone, and you know that American and foreign car companys work together right ?, here, this should help get what I am saying across a little bit better. Enjoy http://www.automotivefamilytree.com/
  19. Cost a lot more to get it wrong than it does to get right.............................................................
  20. Speaking of the Polo, here is a test shot of it I am excited for it
  21. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Bare-Metal-Foil-Gold-foil-sheet-/231409823982?pt=Model_Kit_US&hash=item35e119b0ee
  22. Tamiya hands down, and if you dont want the dispenser's , you can get three rolls(one of each size) shipped to you for about $10
