Where did you get it and how much? I was going to get one for my brother. I see it mostly for $120.

These arrived today. Picked them up off ebay when they popped up from a seller in China..definitely on the pricey side but haven't the time tonight to evaluate the goods. Will be saving that for tomorrow or this weekend when I can get some good lighting. One white, one black, for obvious reasons.

My sister has a friend who works at the Vaughn Mills legoland so I paid $75 taxes in for it. It's a really fun build. Finished it yesterday and I must say it's so much bigger than I thought!

Might pick up the Ecto-1 next.

The CLS shooting brake is definitely starting to look more appealing to me.

Good price. Not a fan of the car or the model though.

I've just received the two most anticipated HWEs of 2015; Speciale and LaFerrari. And they are rubish :tut:

Full of glue residue, black colour marks, the gaps... Also NART stripe was damaged. Compared to almost the same priced AA RS 4.0, Speciale looks overpriced. But I still like Speciale, looks nice with that colour combo!

When I've first layed my eyes on BBR's Enzo I was stunned. The richnest of the color, overall execution, the presence... perfect. But Hot Wheels Elite LaFerrari; toyish, poor execution, non-existent QC.

I'm waiting to receive another (overpriced) Hot Wheels Elite; I hope that one will be worth the fuss. One of the holly grals :woot:
