I have a few pictures of his garage that was completely custom-built around Hot Wheels theme. He estimated his somewhere around $25,000 - $30,000, I believe. The cabinet handles were custom made using hotwheels. The packs on the walls are held in place by built-in slots.

The HELL with dusting that...

Japan, I picked one up myself on my last business trip there. It's sitting on my desk at work now. Next time I go there I can pickup some more of people here are interested. They are about $40.

Oh, and don't take the die cast model car collecting hobby to lightly. There are collectors clubs, magazines, conventions you name it. My dad has a collection of about model 800 cars, mostly 1/43 scale. A lot of them are hand build specials. You'd be shocked to see the prices some of these model cars go for at swap meets/conventions. I have about 100 model cars myself, mostly 1/43 scale Ferrari's. I was a big Ferrari fan as a kid, but I stopped collecting them when I was about 15 years old so they're all sitting in a box in the basement now...

And now I'm older I can't afford a real Ferrari, so I ended up buying a Z :rolleyes: Ah well, it's faster then the 308 GTB I wanted as a kid, so I can't complain too much :)

XMODS also has a 2010 370Z RC car... you can pick it up at Radioshack.

I got one for Christmas; it's pretty fun to mess around with!

Yep, these were the only colors I saw as well. But let me know if you're interested. If I don't go there, I can ask one of my Japanese colleagues to bring a few next time they come over.

Sure, a black one wouldnt be too shabby I suppose, i could always repaint it.

Ok, I'll see what I can do. It might take a
few weeks, but I'll keep you informed!
