  1. No, the seller you found, and I am guessing that seller was PJ-Toys, he is hoping to that he will find people dumb enough to pay his prices, alot of the parts he sells, you can buy an entire kit for the price of some of the parts.
  2. You can contact Revell and they will send you clear lense for the lightbar free of charge, and runs of the kit after this first run will have clear lense
  3. Here are the last of the WIP pics, I have finished this one up and will be getting it posted soon
  4. Yes, go for it, you never know tell you try, whats the worse that can happen?, you have two, so use one to practice on? I took the plastic wrap of the Minolta box, and opened it up, I thought that was a good start , nothing show, have not started yet, but took a few pics of the body
  5. I am planning on picking the Jeep kit too, well the Mustang too
  6. I dont have all night to list the cars that I would buy , but you named a few I would have
  7. Oscar, nice kits,will we be seeing them in the CBP? ,
  8. Yes, it was not owned by the driver, I believe in a lot of country's, they say hire instead of renting. I bet this will be on wrecked exotics soon http://www.wreckedexotics.com/
  9. Had no idea the forum was down, but to keep my reply model related, I went to the mail box to retrieve a kit that was waiting for me
  10. My minolta kit arrived, now I can get started here
  11. Got this today, bought on a site called ecrater
  12. Seen the pics he is talking about
  13. I have noticed that too, and given the choice for the same price , I am buying Tamiya first , that was one of the reasons I used a lot or MM lacquer line was it was cheaper then Tamiya , and I could get them at Hobby Lobby which is closer to me then my LHS
  14. And do you want it to be from a kit, or resin? 4cl or 6cl?
  15. Did some work on the wheels, painted them using Tamiya semi gloss black acrylic shot through the A/B Then took a q-tip , dip it in 91% rubbing alcohol , and rub off the black , and I was left with this started working on the interior and the body after a few coats of clear, this was before I did a wet sanding of 8000, and one more coat of clear I forgot to post the pics of the chassis,
  16. Well, what brand of clear coat did you use?, was it Testor's clear coat lacquer?
  17. Wow, nice, two huh?, when one is not enough I got my shipping notice for my Minolta kit, so I am guessing by the end of the week, what I have planned for after the Minolta build will be the Pennzoil R34 GTR kit.
  18. No, it is not, the slang term fax machine is Jeremy Clarkson making fun of the name Mclaren gave this car, basically, MP4-12C is something that would be used for say, a fax machine name, and not a car, thats all it is, just making fun of the name
  19. Jeremy Clarkson from TopGear calls it a fax a machine
  20. Very nice, you did a great job
  21. Finished this one up as well, not much to say about it really, I used Scale Finishes Gulf Oragne , I used carbon fiber decals on the wing, and on the front piece's in front of the front tires ( I have no idea what to call them)
