  1. I have bought 15 of Aoshima's Toyota/Subaru 86 kits, 2 of Tamiya , I currently have built 13 of them number 11 is on the bench I bought and built close to two dozen of Lindbergs Crown Vic police kit, probably a dozen of the Caprice kits Plus how many of the same make of NASCAR kits , cant even begin to count those
  2. I have to be honest, I like the new style Beetle, I see a lot of the original styling cues in it, and it even looks better with the dog dish hub caps, and being honest again, at first, I did not care on bit for the 2015 Mustang, but its growing on me, and I might just break down and get the Revell kit. Tesla's are indeed very nice looking cars.
  3. Its my opinion that people dismiss new cars without every actually looking at them because they do not want to see anything positive in them.
  4. Awesome job Marty!!
  5. And Aoshima is putting out more new and modified issues then Revell and Round 2 combined , but thats my point, people only want to see the hobby as its only in the USA, but its not, and even if Revell and Round2 were gone tomorrow, the hobby would carry on . Just because the youth here in the USA may not care about building models, that doesn't mean that the youth in other parts of the world dont either, we can not judge the health of hobby just by how it is in the USA.
  6. they are 1:32 & 22,5" so - they are 16.6" at 1:24th
  7. So many people forget that building models extends outside of the US, the hobby is not going to be dying anytime soon.
  8. Basket Ball is still even relevant?, do people still actually care about BB and the NBA?
  9. Thank you everyone I did lower it yes, this kit has ride height options built in, there are little round pegs that depending on if you want stock or lower , go on the top or bottom of the suspension points, its really easy .
  10. Wow Chuck, thats nice, well done
  11. Tamiya Nissan R32 GTR, OBB, it gave up its engine for the Rocket Bunny kit, Tamiya Gun Metal for the paint
  12. Fujimi Nissan Skyline V35, OOB, paint is Nissan Smoke
  13. Yes, another Rocket Bunny completed, I am sure you wondering if I am ever going to run out of RB kits, or 86 kits for that matter Aoshima kit, RB26DETT from Tamiya's R32 GTR kit, I use a set of Hobby Design Turbos, not that you can see them, paint is Lexus Liquid Blue( it has a very purple tint to thats not caught on camera), tires are from the Wheelman, BSAP https://www.facebook.com/BuckeyeScaleAutoParts?fref=ts
  14. The boob part, agreed
  15. The monsoon keeps teasing us with a storm
  16. There are some on Ebay http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_odkw=Revell+datsun&_osacat=0&_from=R40&_trksid=p2045573.m570.l1313.TR0.TRC0.H0.XRevell+datsun+240.TRS0&_nkw=Revell+datsun+240&_sacat=0
  17. One of the engine swaps that I have thought about doing, I cant take credit for, another builder was going to it , is the VG30ET from Tamiyas 300 Zed kit
  18. I have thought a few engine swap ideas for the 510's , my biggest gripe with this kit, inst really the kit itself, but what was pointed out already its a pain in the horse's rear end doing wheel/tire swaps on
  19. I do not miss shopping at Costco.
  20. I dont think government sales number are included in these types of list
