Nope, I meant the Official NHL 1:50 Diecast Zambonis. The team designs change every year I believe. I have since stopped, but have many from the 90s.

japan or hong kong. ebay prices are stupid, as in $100+ markups from the retail prices i see overseas. there is supposedly a north american distributor in california but when i asked wilkinson's about ignition model they said there was no canadian distributor because the only one for north america is located in the US and controls everything here. with the exchange rate and the costs associated with it was not feasible for wilkinson's to bring them in :9

I snapped a wiper arm on my AA Initial D AE86 while waxing it from a random piece of string from a microfibre cloth that caught on it

My apartment is hella dusty, all carpets only the kitchen and washrooms are not carpet. Makes dust easier to clean off my models

And it makes them shine
