    Okay, so I've been talking to Curt over at TFSource who's trying to bring these over Stateside... Unfortunately there's a high minimum order he's got to fill...

    So with that in mind, he wants to make sure that the ones he orders will sell well...

    Now I pose this question to those who are interested in seeing these on a US online retail store: Which ones are you MOST interested in???

    Here are the options:

    1:12 Class:
    Ford GT (Yellow or White)
    Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX (Black or Silver)

    1:18 Class:
    Hummer H2 (Yellow)
    Lamborghini Murcielago (Green)
    Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VIII (Red)
    Toyota Celica (Blue)
    Toyota Land Cruiser (Silver)
    Toyota MR2 (Silver)
    Toyota Supra (Yellow)

    1:32 Class:
    Ford GT (Red)
    Mitsubishi Pajero (White)

    I would've done this with a poll, but there were 11 total figures and polls only allow 10 entries...

    So help us out here... For those of you Stateside and want these, which ones interest you the most???

    ALL the 1:18 ones, emphasis on the Lamborghini, dubious about the Celica and Evo, which IIRC were kinda busy. The rest... *plonks down $100*.

    Okay, I'll take one of each of the Toyotas (without the Land Cruiser), and ALL of the Fords.

    Also, can't forget the Lambo, puke green or not. :)

    I’m interested in all the 1:18 scale, and the 1:32. I’m not really sure about the 1:12; I would have to see about the quality being that much larger the quality might suffer.
    Count me in!

    When Happywell first put these on their site, Jazwares was said to pick up the line... It's been a LOOONG time since the figures were put on the Happywell site... I check that site very often too as well as the Jazwares site and I've heard nothing past the initial report...

    My interests:

    1:18 Toyota Celica (blue)
    1:18 Lamborghini Murcielago (green)
    1:18 Lancer Evolution (red)

    1:12 Ford GT (white/blue)

    It depends on pricing as well, however.

    Happy Well has a lot of pretty cool figures under its Galaxy Defender line, too. I know they're largely semi or full knock-offs of other lines, but still. Anyone know of a source for these?

    1:18

    hummer
    evo
    lambo
    celica

    unless they come out with those molds in the 1:32 scale, in which case I'd rather have those. also, I wouldn't be willing to spend more than $25 for the 1:18, so if he'd be charging more than that per bot, I'll pass.

    I would buy all of them, but unless there would be a significant discount for those buying large orders (like "buy them all for X dollars") , I'd wait until they start to show up stateside.
