Really?? I had no idea. I had one of my cars in an issue of Car Modler. I'll have to look at the issue when I get home but it was Photographed at the NNL's in Santa Clara California back when I used to live in Cali.

I am acually getting my model room all set up. Haven't built really much of anything since I've lived in Az. but I'm getting that itch to start building like I used to. I miss it. I've been building since I was 15.

 

The TAMIYA store was closed both yesterday and today for some seminar they put a note up about on the door. They will be open again tomorrow morning so I will me making a last minute purchase before I go to the office and then the airport.

SHOWTIME i was soooooooo close to getting you your FERRARI today though. I was taken to the MBK which is Bangkok largest mall being 4 levels and tons of stuff and deals. There was a model shop there that had a black Ferrari 328 but it was a GTB and not the GTS. I'm sure the GTB although close to what you have would not have been the same to be able to say "that is the exact car i have right there in the case" so i did not purchase it at 2900 baht which is about $90. I hope to find one for you tomorrow morning though at the TAMIYA store.

I was able to get copies of bootleg movies at the mall though if anyone wants a copy, i got movies like Redline, 300, The Theif Lord, The Reaping, TMNT, the shooter, and the New MR. Bean movie. After realizing how many other great movies they had there there still even in the theatre and only $15 for 6 movies i shoujld have gotten more. I'll remember that for next time i guess.

ANY LAST MINUTE MODEL ORDERS MUST BE IN BEFORE I GO TOMORROW MORNING, SO POST BEFORE 4PM SUNDAY!!!

 

The suspense is killing me, thanks again for tracking down the 328 for me…I couldn’t even come close to $90 in the states for it…I can’t wait to see the bB also…we should all get together and build these things sometime next month…

 

At this point I did NOT get you that 328 I saw in the store because it was the GTB and not the GTS. I will be going to the Tamiya store in about an hour and hopefully will be able to find something there. If I am unable to find it at the Tamiya store then when I come back again in two months I will try to make it down to the MBK again and I'm sure that other model will still be there for ya.

 

^^^ Thanks for trying...no biggie on the 328, LOL well maybe on the next time around if you can't find a GTS I'll have you get a GTB and have Mooneyzs chop the top... :D

 

just came from the TAMIYA store, they were actually still closed for the day but I went upstairs to their offices and got them to open the store just for me :-p. Was able to get two more bB's and one of them is actually a special "dragon edition" which i think just changes the decal on the side that it comes with.

SOrry again SHowtime but they had no 328's, only Enzo's, F140, Testerossa's and other models that aren't yours.

 

I call the special dragon one!

 

Hmmm I have been looking at Testarossa's lately, however I've had that model since I was a kid...it's been my inspiration ever since...in due time...

Thanks for the bB...I can't wait!!! Whoohoo!! Damn Crispy...oh well first come first serve I suppose

 

Where's the Tamiya store

 

the TAMIYA store is actually about a 5 minute walk if even that from my company apartment which is Ihouse. Basically the location of my apartment would be comparable to if i had an apt RIGHT ON Mill ave.

 

Moon, the ex-ed is a poster named 'thirty-nine' from Portland, OR. and he seems like a great guy.... I don't know how I thought a big time editor would act, but he is way cooler than i ever thought...

 

So it's located at....?

 

Thailand

 

I thought it was in Mesa

 

LOL, he lives in mesa, but MTX sent him to Thailand on business, and he keeps an eye for toys for us collectors and such.

 

I realize Thailand is an "emerging market" but I don't know what the car stereo business is like over there.
