hey mike: i thought that was the same version cappachino i remembered you buying, i picked one of them up today but had to spend more than you on it <_< anyway i think its a sharp little car. i want to find that honda beat youre ordering too.

I got the Beat from www.hwjapan.com

i want to do a similar diorama to this one i did a while ago, only using modern mini cars instead of vintage ones:

What's the blue and white car? The yellow one is a Honda S800 and the black and orange is a Subaru 360, right?

Michael, the blue and white car is a Toyota..I dont remember what model, but I did see it on the

Hobby Search Japan website last night when I was placing my $150+ order...

and that Honda Beat looks pretty cool, too..

I have spent WAY too much money on models the last few weeks...over $250 just from HLJ and HSJ......

that Honda S800 kit in both racing and street trim will be some of my next purchases..

yes toyota S800 from fujimi in race trim. full engine detail as well. very nice kit of a very cool car. a friend of mine has two of the real thing in a barn and the kit is pretty darn accurate as for small details. all three of those cars have pilot figures fitted, that was some major body surgery there.

Boso style '49 Merc?

Nope, just took the pic of those together....the wheels will get used in a future, undetermined classic import build.

After dropping off my Dad at the airport in Denver, I went to a fantastic hobby shop, one I've been going to for over 15 years, Colpar Hobbies on Havana Street, and I picked up the 6th Koenig Specials model from Fujimi. The Mercedes 500 SL BlackStar. BlackStar is just a name they gave for their black cars. Mine will be painted light gun-metal gray and a brown leather-look interior.

AMT 1953 Ford F100- $10

AMT 1997 Ford Explorer Limited- $10

AMT 1955 Chevy Cameo Pickup- $10

AMT 1965 Pontiac 2+2- $12

AMT 1969 Pontiac Firebird- traded for a transfer case, 2 axels and 6 fog lights
