well, i found one currently going for starting price of $180 at auction overseas.

i asked a friend to help bid on it because they will not ship internationally.

as of this post i have 5 days left. the auction title has a spelling error in it so i am hoping no one saw it because the counter is not picking up any views.

wish me luck so that if i do win it i can blame you :thumbsup: .

I still found plenty of the red NSX-R on the overseas auction site. But after currency exchange. It's around $220. Damn Canadian dollar sinking so low

what about in europe? when i bought my gt spirit stuff i got it from france and the euro exchange was really great a month back (ie. better than compared to usd and HKD)?

What euro sedan would go nicely with a navy blue bmw 750 li by kyosho ? Newer beamer not the old ones, I'm considering a newer audi a8 w12 in silver by kyosho, what're your thoughts on that? Would the silver go with it?

went to Wilkinson's today. Found this little guy. I first thought it was a Maisto but on closer inspection. It was an Autoart. Since I got it for cheap, might as well mod it with some aftermarket kit when the time comes.

I saw the guy who traded that r35 in, he also traded in an AA r35 with optional Black rims which had a box but your r35 they you bought had no box and both the mirrors were out which Ted glued in :failed:

Are their discounts of more than 20% in store ? If not then everything online is 20% off as well, not on items added new after aug 1 rst which applies for the 20% discount in store as well

v_tec98 10-21-2014 05:07 PM

Does anyone have an LFA by AA they'd sell ?? :whistle:

tofu1413 10-21-2014 06:01 PM

wilkinsons.

I havent been there for a few weeks.. ill swing by and check up

!Kodamu 10-21-2014 07:33 PM

Yeah, this year's sale wasnt that impressive. Just the usual 1/43 25%. Not all of the 1/18 are on sale. That p1 in the first display shelve is 40%.....on 495.99 I believe.


Thumper: That's the first edition 1/18 Z Tune r34

kookoobird88: Was the mirrors really broken off before? if so, then Ted sure glue them back on strong lol

Some older guy on a bike came in with it and the one with optional Black rims

!Kodamu 10-22-2014 07:27 AM

Because I have been using the mirrors to open the door and there isn't any glue residue. But doesn't matter, planning to do a color change on it.
