also which is the more desired color? white or yellow?

Picked up some goodies while I was in LA, at some mall in Long Beach and at ToyotaFest. They had a booth there with insane amounts of these! I woulda cleaned house if I had the money, easily.



Favourites are the R34, RX7, AE86, the 2000GT, FnF Supra, and the chibi looking MR2 lol.

is that a plastic or diecast kit? my cousin awhile back showed me a pic of a u-build diecast 1:24 scale skyline model similar to what hotworks used to do but i forget the manufacturer name... just wondering if this is the same.

Its a plastic model, I my self haven't heard of Aoshima quality of the casts looks good with little flash. Although I was hoping it was going to be one you have to paint. it came prepainted, might have to stick with tamyia after this.

R35's are gianormous machines.

FD's are very compact...



I ordered an innocent blue FD as well!

^Plastic car modelling is a lot of fun. The possibilities are endless.
Also, there are a couple of modelling competitions in Vancouver. Build some models and share it with the community.
I haven't been to one since 2010. Been way too busy with work and school. Modelling unfortunately takes up too much of my time.

Cant believe this was almost 4 years ago....

I got REALLY sick and tired of being outbid on the Hot Wheels Ferrari 599xx Super Treasure Hunt.... it's now going for about $25 - $29 each, ughhhhhhhh

So I went ahead and pulled the trigger and bought a BBR 1:43 Ferrari 599xx EVO
First time I have ever bought something of this quality, it's INSANE. Got a good deal on it. Each version is limited to 60 pieces, I have # 26/60

Looks 1000x better in person
