... and here's an older pic of Thrust & Skyfire couse I still like it.

Enjoy.

Nice! It's seriously awesome to finally see your collection man. Nice shelves!

Thanks broski.

I might not have very much by comparison & the picture quality isn't exactly what I'd like it to be, but I'll fix both of those things soon enough.

My non-pictured Cliffjumper is much obliged.

Also, thanks for the nice comments guys, and this case is definitely a collectible in itself. If/when I get one of those Ikea glass things, it'll probably go right next to it, as I think there's enough room to avoid having the door always hitting it.

Nice collection. I -still- need to get Universe Thrust!

TrueNomadSkies · 01-02-2012, 09:04 PM

Definitely

Generations Thrust is simply amazing, especially in the colour, and my photo doesn't come close to doing it justice. I think I paid 18 bucks + tax for it (via Zellers), but I don't regret doing so one bit because had I not taken that bite, I'd have had to get him online for at least that much (if not more).

Also to Avenged9, I made that in grade 12 shop class. I'm pretty sure it was supposed to be a 30's ford, but I thought it looked better with smaller wheels so I didn't bother with the lower frame pieces that the wheels would normally have been pegged into. It's not chopped or anything, even though it kinda looks like it because of the lower stance & flatter roof. It's too bad that one of the fenders broke along the way (some retards were running around the shop & fell into it when I was working), but its all good. I also like the look of unfettered wood, so I never stained it or anything, but since I don't keep it outside or in the toilet, nothing started to rot or warp.
