Really cool RX-8 key chain and model

Have you guys seen these?

A 1:18 diecast RX-8 model, very detailed. I just got one. It's really nice. Makes me want to run out and drive my car every time I see it sitting on my desk:

Rotary keychain. The rotor spins, too! I just ordered one. I'll let you know how it looks:

Oops, looks like you need to get clear corners, strakes, etc. for the diecast

Great finds! I already have a rotary keychain (but it doesn't move) I will keep, but I am ordering the car NOW!

I received my model RX-8 from the site referenced above (idcow).

I am really happy with this. Lots of detail in the car. The engine cover even comes off!

The velocity red paint is surprisingly accurate as well, even showing gold flakes under the right lighting.

Looks great sitting next to my 1:18 scale FD from Kyosho.

Highly recommended.

I've had that diecast for over a year! My buddy picked it up for me at the hobbie shop expo here in vegas. He paid 35 bones for it. Well worth the money, craftsmanship is great.
