So cool, jump right into the deep. If you want a challenge try the 1/35 tamiya RC Panther G.

Yes I do want a challenge. I might have to add that to the list! Somehow I didn't realize that the 1/35 series were kits; I thought they were RTR. I guess that's because they come with a transmitter.

Thanks! I suppose it is not surprising that there should be some overlap between people who like various building hobbies.

Did I mention I have some building to do?

Beautifull Eric! I saw a dyna storm.

Good grief, that lot is gonna take awhile to build. I wish they were mine.

Darn, Lego, Tamiya and Gundam aswell.

Ahhhhh you miss a monster beetle....
I see that you have rere wich are already rare. And not sure that the fire dragon is a rere. You will have nice moments with the builts. Congrats.

Dyna Storm was hard to find. It is one of the oldest re-re's from 2001 and it was a limited 49xxx release. The others that were difficult are the F-150 Baja, the Fire Dragon, and the Buggy Champ. Those were all eBay finds. Most of the others I was able to order new from Tower or RC Mart. Fire Dragon is the 2008 re-re (58403). I still haven't found the Thunder Shot. There are also a few on backorder not sitting on the shelf yet including the Sand Rover, the Egress, the Fighting Buggy, and the Top Force.

The Monster Beetle is not missing, I just built it already. The re-re's already built are the Monster Beetle, the Bruiser, the Midnight Pumpkin, the Fast Attack Vehicle, the Avante, the Sand Scorcher, the Pajero, and the Clod Buster.


I also have a few "other" (non-re-re) builds waiting including the Arocs 1/14 tipper, the Tundra Highlift, the Rally Beetle, a TRF201, an F104, and a TLT-1. I would really like to build the new Abrams tank but the new price increase is making that very difficult.

One of the hardest decisions is the order of building!

Thanks. I've mostly been going with box art but I let my daughter choose a color for the Pajero and she picked the wildest thing she could find, "Ford Ultraviolet Pearl". Same thing happened with the turquoise on the Clod.
