The super is the delorean and the regular is the Time Tracker.
Nice to see my loopster recolor prediction was correct ha. Also, I gotta find the Silverado.
 
Thanks. Kyosho is trying hard. And succeeding. Nice taillights, great door-cuts, and they have even fitted the windshield and wraparound right. 👍

The mirrors look silvered, but probably that's just the photo?
 

Nice, nice, very nice. It's not often I see a Japanese car made from Kyosho, but if this is what they can do, then I need to see more of that. It's a lovely car all-round, the detailing is good and the casting seems to be made in a very solid quality. And I agree with photon; the windshield wraparound is near-perfect for a car so small. Manilla sure has the good stuff, huh?

Great purchase, Kakashi. 👍

In the meantime, in case you want to see one in a zoomed-up angle, here's a video from ohiko2000 showcasing Oversteer's latest 1/64 model. And quite frankly, one of my dream purchases; the 2014 Mazda 2/Demio:

 
I really need to post pics. I've gotten a couple of new zamacs and a few M2s. I think I'll do that today. I got a new display case, so I need to go through my cars anyways.
 

God dang that's dirty. Don't you clean your cars at least once in while, man? :P

But nice truck. I take it that it doesn't have a specific brand... (car brand, I mean. I bet it must be a vintage MBX or something along those lines...)


Now that's what I call the "Burt Reynolds Tow & Hitch", and I like it. Even the Chevy pick-up has matching colors and stripes with the Firebird, now that's consistency. Beautiful... 👍

It's not dirty, it's just tattered. When I took these pictures I'd already cleaned it up.

It's made by Playart. It was one of those cabs that the brand used to put all kinds of rears in it, there's a cement mixer, a fire truck, a tow truck, all sorts of stuff.

Fair enough, I retract what I said about it being dirty.

So it's a Playart... And one of those "multi-purpose" cabs that brands use to make all sorts of models, interesting. Is that Panam company a real one?
 
Buy it for the truck and trailer, put the car inside where you can't see it = problem solved. :P

Or you could get yourself a better version of that Transam, replace the one that comes with the set for it and there you go. Then sell the "bad" Transam to any foolish soul who might want it and net yourself a decent profit. :P

But hey, two out of three ain't bad for that Tow & Hitch set. Or so I think, anyways.
 
As much as I like the Dodge D-100 the original idea they had of a 50's vette was way cool.

Actually, as cool as the Corvette would have been. Honestly I think I prefer the Dodge pickup instead, makes a great companion piece to the Airflyte. The Krispy Kreme C-10 is cool as well but I'm pretty meh on the other two.

All of those are pretty awesome. I'd buy the Explorer, drill the wheels out, reproduce them and put it back together.

Your foam does what?

Your foam does ducks?!

Oh! Your foam holds trucks!

That's the entire Del Prado collection. Started and stopped in one go.

Forgot to slip in 8 more pieces of foam. I still need to include the wood to go around the perimeter and backing.... and the acrylic too. I was going to seal this baby up after I finish.
