The MiniPunch Gallery
Now that I've started to amass a collection of AutoScales, I figure it's about time that I start my own gallery thread. I guess that my plan is to keep it chronological - sort of like my own image diary of sorts. Whenever I get something new, I'll post it up.
I'm starting the thread off with my first Mini Z, which I got a couple weeks ago. It's a Subaru WRC 2008 MA-010 (white). These pics were taken fresh from the box - even before I ran it for the first time. The pics kind of suck, but hey - I was excited to get going!

Along with the Subaru came a yellow Nissan 350z. I actually don't like the way this one looks, and my plan is to eventually paint it Pearl White just like the real one I used to drive. Oh yeah - the wing has to go. Hate it!

Actually, I'm a total perfectionist so I actually ordered some "basher" bodies to use so that I can leave these unscarred. These darn things are so fast that no matter how hard I try, I can't avoid walls and other objects lying around my house. But with the basher bodies it won't matter if I hit anything or get some serious battle scars...

Yeah, I think the closest one is up in Lake Forest (Kyosho track) - it's not quite San Diego, but close enough. I still haven't ventured up there, but I will soon just to check it out.

Aaaannnd here we go. I'm starting to get a bit more serious about collecting AutoScales now, and I'm going to try and get a respectable collection going. I have no intentions of obtaining as many as New2miniz, but I do want to have a bunch of good stuff to put in a display case in the future (whenever we can get into a bigger house). Anyway, I went on a buying spree earlier this week and the first shipments arrived today:
I have a thing for 350Z's, as I use to own a real one. So anything 350Z is a top priority for me. Anyway, I scored this one from right here at the tinyrc.com store. Looks like it's been sitting in storage for a while - it's very dusty! Oh - and the body popped off the chassis during shipping, but I'm not going to open the case and fix it. It's gonna stay like that.
Now we're getting serious. Thanks to Traveler, these two beauties arrived today. Love that Test Z.
More to come very soon...

Alright, I've been pretty busy lately but I've had lots of good stuff coming in and my collection is getting larger. This Shelby Cobra arrived a couple weeks ago:

Soon after that, I received a small order from Japan. Finally got my hands on a Ferrari F40!

And of course, several 350Z/Fairlady Z's to round out my Z collection:
I've still got a handful of other AutoScales that I haven't taken pictures of yet, but I'll do that soon and post them here...

Oh - I just realized that I forgot this picture (it's kind of a bad pic, but whatever).
I was really happy to find a new black Ford GT, but I was slightly disappointed when it arrived - the case had been opened so they could put bubble wrap inside (I guess for protection during shipping). I would have much preferred to received an unopened one! Oh well...

I think you are missing another Z, the Xanavi?
