I really am very happy with the GT3R especially the fact that the tires actually feel like racing slicks compared to the normal AutoArt tires.

well I just got around to updating with my new F1 from LEGO and my SLR which I've had but never gt around to posting it...

Well it isn't the big one but still...
I picked it up for $24 USD at a local store and am pleased with it




Black SLR 1:18 by Maisto
quality is good for $20 USD but it doesn't hold up to the big guys and I'm dissapointed that the interior isn't painted correctly but I had to have it so now I have the big threesome, still looking for a good Zonda

See...I have this nasty tendency to buy a model from some company like Maisto or HW or Bburago and get so disgusted with the detail level that I tear it apart and repaint bits of it, and occasionally add wiring harnesses and the like. You could always just paint the interior correctly

Well I just went to our New Super Target (very nice store) and picked up these 1:18 bikes from Maisto, they aren't the greatest quality but it's hard to find bikes to begin with that aren't HD's and they were only $6 USD soo I bought them.



OK first off the Yamaha YZF-R1




Now for the Ducati Monster 1000S



a sweat duel


My Favorite of the 5
Ducati 999s




Honda CBR600F4i



Another duel
Hondas: CBR600F4i & Interceptor ABS


Honda Interceptor ABS (VFR V4 Vtec)




Some different racing skins for the bikes



Some other spare parts
Wheels, Brakes, Exhaust, Seats


And All I would need in my garage to be happy (I'd take more ofcourse)

well just picked these up over the weekend reaping the benefits of after Thanksgiving specials.
And yes I realize they are dusty already (just cleaned my room top to bottom everywhere for Family on Thanksgiving) for some reason probably just because it's black so it's very obvious.

First off this Hot Wheels Lamborghini Diablo GTR Whips edition. $15



Maisto Corvette C5 Z06 385 $10




JadaToys Import Racer Magazine Edition TEIN Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII $10
