Does anyone have a complete list of toy models? Any plush toys, build yourself models, R/C 1/10th scale models, or diecast I'm missing ?

Here's what I've found so far:

AutoArt has both Left Hand & Right hand in 1/18 scale. Should I order both you think ??

AutoArt is also releasing different scales in different countries. The US gets 1/18. Europe 1/43. Other countries 1/64. Of course you have to order every size :)

i like the Autoarts... n those Choro-Qs are cute....

the choro-q's are really neat. supposedly they produce each color for just a year and it's somewhat collectible. and i've been trying to get the autoart model for a while but no one seems to have it in 1/18 scale in yellow yet...

Looks like my favorite Southern California Hobby Shop, Burbank House of Hobbies has gotten in the AutoArt cars in all 3 scales.

Look here:

and find the listing from August 4th.

Happy Hunting!

Just remembered a Miata source was carrying RX-8 models now. Looks like 1/43rds and a ChoroQ.

No affiliation - just good folks to do business with.

I was just wondering...do you think Toy Biz should make Cyclops' RX-8 into a toy? Toy Biz are the guys who make those X-Men figures as well as the X-men vehicles i.e. the X-Jet. I know I would be interested. Any of you guys? I have already contacted Toy Biz about this matter and their response was that they have no current plans on making Cyclops' RX-8. I think it would be a good idea if everyone who is interested contact Toy Biz and make some noise! Their website is at...

Yeah I saw that on Hobbylink Japan. $175 is a bit much though for the same old models that have been repackaged.

I'm still thinking about it though :)

Anybody know if they made a HPI MicroRS4 (1:18) shell yet? I have a RX7 right now. I know they made the 350Z...

If you have any friends in Japan - here is a link to the Rotary set for around $80.00 plus tax:

shell for what? they make s15 silvia and supra...no rx-8 yet. if they do then i'm going out and buying a microRS4 =)

microRS4 is a small battery operated RC. RTR (ready to race) kits are available for $200. But I would build it myself. More fun.

The shell is a clear plastic (think its polyurethane) which you paint on the inside so they look rally slick. Very fun for an entry level RC.

not sure if there's a silva or supra but the skyline is available

check www.microrcshop.com for details

Here's an M-tech 1/43 and Fujimi 1/24 scale models. The fujimi is the first self-assembly kit, but collector's don't remove the shrinkwrap obviously.

I just got for by birthday (Today) a 1/64 model of my car AND two shirts, one that says "Got Rotary?" and a picture of my red RX8.
