Hi all,

I've been on this site for years and finally got around to just making an account. I primarily started off with hotwheels and have numerous Tamiya models. Collection focuses mainly on Porsche, with a few other random ones.

I joined just to network and my own ideas as far as modifications go on models.

Thanks!

Welcome to DS!

I'll be in Chicago in a few weeks. Any good diecast shops or saltwater aquarium stores you would recommend?

The one I knew of closed years ago, over 10 years ago. Not sure on saltwater aquarium stores. Most stores like the hobby town USA stores carry minimum diecast. It's a lot of rc these days
