Re: Spray can snow

I have done 1/18 diecast and have shot the model with flat clear and then sprinkle baking soda on it. I used a flour sifter or shake a colander to spread the baking soda.

Re: Bruder MAM TGA/trailer question

This is a phone picture I took. The floor tiles under it are 12". I would say that it is about 36" long plus the ramps and about 7.5"-8" wide. The trailer may need to be lengthened some to make is pass as realistic and closer to the pictures I find online. http://www.diecastxchange.com/forum1/upload...

Re: Bruder MAM TGA/trailer question

TJMaxx has had the line for $24-$30 (dump truck, cement truck, garbage truck, log truck...) and if this one would had been in the box, I would had bought it. Not willing to pay the $80+online price. It seems that lots of moms turn their kids loose on their toy aisle while they shop so everything is ...

Bruder MAM TGA/trailer question

I was at TJ Maxx the other day and they had one of these, but it was loose and missing part so I did not get it. But is looks very interesting. I was wondering if any one has detailed one and painted and put an M1A1 on it? I set the one at the store on the floor and it was about 3 feet long. It look...

Re: New pictures of Auto Art diecast 1/18 Jeep

Got some bad news! The MSRP on these will be $274!!!! They will rot away before I buy one at that price! Even it it has 452 parts!!! Auto Art gets bashed on many diecast forum, and their greed is why! Here are more pics they just released: http://img64.imageshack.us/img64/8317/3207152992022700917031...

This diecast dealer has it on pre-order for $119 and $159 with the trailer, which looks pretty detailed: http://www.diecastauto.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=6091 While I was looking around that site, I saw that Norev is releasing one for $59: http://www.diecastauto.com/catalog/product_in...

Found one last week at TM for $12 so I got it. Pretty neat, but it screams for some detail. Just a quick black wash, weathering and some accent paint. Thanks to the member that had posted pics of his detail job. http://www.diecastxchange.com/forum1/uploads/monthly_09_2011/post-341-0-07754500-1317084...

Re: Cpt America Red Skull figure?

I found one that has white gloves, brown boots and a light green uniform at Target. It has the same UPC as the regular version. Is there anything special about it? I picked it up in case there is something special about it.

Test Pilot figure from Green Lantern

Has anyone bought one? I saw it briefly on the peg at WM and did not have time to study it, but I recall it could have potential with some paint maybe. Has anyone bought it? Any articulation?

Re: Marine Hummer HX based on the 1/18 Maisto Concept

Is that a real vehical ? It is cool looking. It was a Concept that Hummer had on the show circuit in 2008. It was supposed to be the H4. It got canned along all of Hummer. The underpinnings will live on as the base of the 2012 Colorados/Canyons. Some info on the 1:1: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hu...
