im sure most of you remeber the ones back in the 80'* im sure plently of you are aware of the decline in looks since then, what with the corrent ones that are a mess or radioactive neon colors that resemble a vehicle of some sort, but there is also a line currently in production of real life cars, they have the subaru WRC and WRX, jeep wrangler, didge viper, ford mustang, mazda RX-8, honda *-2000, chevy corvette, and the line is growing, i just got the mustang today and started wondering what the hardcore gearheads would tihnk of them, i apologiz ein adavnc eofr the image quality im working with a 5 year old webcam here


just a normal mustang model?


look at all that detail, must be


wrong!

yeah, not to mention the tiny rearview mirrors, lifelike headlights and taillights, tires with tread, tiny shifter, tiny PARKING BRAKE LEVER for heaven'* sake, tiny speakers, and tiny air vents...

Though I am still not admitting how much time I blow playing with this thing...

those parts are easy for me, the hard part for me is getting the arms in and out of the engine compartment for transformation, unless they just happen to pop out of the joint in which case its easier to transform the shoulder then attach the forearms when its done

I usually rip the doors off to transform mine, then clip them back on. Still a cool toy though. I want to get the yellow jeep or the black viper next I think.
