    Wow, that's actually selling me more than the line art. Not too shabby. Too bad for me that I'm actually going to attempt to not buy anything for personal consumption in 2009. With the date pushed back, this just means I'll have to pass.

    I can tell this insanely demanding new year's resolution is going to be a bee-otch!

    January, eh. Gives me more time to think it over, but I'll probably be getting a silver one :) 
    The article also says that is a final proto and they are in the process of getting approval from Nissan.

    Disappointed that I'll have to wait longer, but I'm sure it'll be worth it in the long run.

    Wow that looks cool. I hope they release Drift in the Universe line though and not in the Binaltech series.

    Cool, but $50 cool? I don't know. I'll have to think about it and see how the size compares to other stuff and how much diecast will be included. The toy market is going price crazy (well, it's been going price crazy for awhile, but it isn't showing signs of stopping).
