Another Mini GT McLaren Senna worthy of praise:

I got this about a week ago. It's a Bad Mudder that someone evidently stripped all the paint off of and repackaged because I found out the rivet had been drilled then glued back. Doesn't bother me though, I suspected it, but I got it because I liked it and because I always wanted one.

Pretty unusual, but I like it! I have plans for it that I'll post about in the customizing thread. I don't intend to do much though.

Still haven’t seen any of the new team transports with the purple 911 or 787b.
I did find the 787 at my local grocery store of all places and it was the only transport hanging. Lucky me. Haven't seen the others. And this new set is really good so probably won't find them either.
 
UK folks: Smyths appears to have Car Culture sets on the shelf now, at £7 each, although as you can imagine they sell out fast. I picked up a full set of Door Slammers yesterday but it took visiting 5 stores to do so, 3 of which had none at all. I believe they're also selling the Japan Historics 3 set but I didn't see any.

Two recent additions.
My first Inno 64.

It's really nice, except for the spoiler being a bit bent. Not crooked, one side is fine. The other is bent upwards. The decals also aren't amazing. A bit thick and too obvious... But it is an E36, which is not very common at all in 1/64, so I'm glad to have one. If it wasn't so expensive I'd probably grab more.


Aaaand a CM's Lancia Delta...

No prizes for guessing this one. I'm really trying to nab up the CM's I'm still missing. You'd think that with all these Lancias I'd have them all by now, but nope. Missing at least two Deltas and that's just off the top of my head. This one is from the 5th CM's series and is quite nice apart from the chunky basic looking wheels.
 
Damn they finally did the 96 Impala. It looks great. Hopefully will be able to find it and the Speedtail, still never found the black and blue Chirons.
