It is funny, i am a fan of Blurr, but not much after that. Hot rod is the other, and maybe Ultra Magnus. Everything else from the earlier seasons i like. I wonder why dont we have MP Jazz, and the others yet. Also, I wonder if they will ever make Blurr into a MP.

I'm pretty sure they already have their CAD design on those and they're just probably waiting for the automobile license approval.

Just acquired an Elintseeker, the most expensive valkyrie that I've ever paid for.

Hahaha! Awesome! How is that working out? I see you added washers on the screws. I felt that with the size of the screw head that they would be fine without washers. Do you think they are necessary?

I always use washers just to be safe. I used anchor screws directly into a stud. Feels very sturdy.

Wow. Those prices for Upsized Prime are something else.

I could get MPP-10, MPP-10B, and pre-order MPP-10W and still pay less than what I paid for the reissued Takara MP-10 that I picked up from BBTS in 2013. And even with today's prices for MP-10, it's almost like getting two for one. Wait. I think I just talked myself into going big. :lol:

seeing others are posting toy cars, I thought I'd do the same! ^_^

picked up this new Autoart 1:18 Holden Torana A9X pretty cheap off ebay the other day. The seller was local and I could pick it up so I didn't even have to pay for postage! B))

Cool 1/18 cars. I see a General Lee as well. I need to get more 1/18 cars to go with my Knight Rider and 1/18 figures.

It looks like eBay has the best prices, although some sellers are more dependable than others. On TFW there is a list of good sellers: bababobo00712, smartlulup2010, 9151987, to name a few. On-line shops like sirtoys.com and tf-direct.com also carry stock and have good reputations. You will be paying a little more shopping at a store, though. Depending on which Prime you want, it seems the premium is $10-$30(USD).

Yeah I have quite a few Hot Wheels, some Treasure Hunts, even a Treasure Hunt WRX. I'm not a heavy collector but just buy cool looking cars if I see them in stores. It's a bonus that they are 1/64, close to scale with 1/60 Valkyries.

I only have around two dozen 1:18 cars left.. Yes indeed there is! that's the Autoworld Authentic Series General Lee. Is considerably more screen accurate than many others before it! A must for any 1:18 car collection! B))

Whilst I was overseas I went to a few Air / motor museums and model shops, it was certainly very difficult to resist the urge to buy sooo much stuff! Had to exercise an incredible level of restrain believe me! :o:wacko:

I seriously cannot continue buying 1:18 cars though the Torana kinda has some purpose to it. My uncle once had an ex Holden Dealer Team promo car done up in the Marlboro race livery which he purchased from the team after they retired the Torana and moved to the Commodores and this thing was a wicked car! I remember it well! Sucks he sold it when he moved back to the UK in the late 80's.. So when I saw you can get plain white Torana's I decided that I wanted to recreate that car he once had but in scale of course.. So this was his car that I want to attempt at making!
