I am in the same boat as Wes, I am immediately sucked in by the detail and parts count, which no other manufacturer can compare with (at least with this car), which is why I bought this one. The engine, interior and chassis detail is incredible.

However, I do enjoy reading Lucky's no BS rants, his knowledge and eye to accuracy is top notch, and he does bring up good points. I sure am in a bind here, I want to sit and read his posts and bitch right along with him, but then I want to go downstairs and play with the model!! LOL

A brilliantly detailed model for sure, but for me, the exterior lines are a massive let down. To be fair, I was never going to buy one anyway due to the price point (I don't have a single CMC in my collection).

I will say, that everytime I see my Kyosho or even see other pics on the forums, it kind of takes my breath away. I think Kyosho absolutely nailed the exterior lines, at least in my mind of what a 250GTO should look like. No CMC picture has done the same for me.
