My birthday gifts!
 
UPDATED!!! - Over christmas, I also got a White Ebbro Fairlady Z to finally match my actual car. The detail on it is amazing... much better than the Maisto. Also comes in a display case already. But it is smaller (1:43) and doors don't open. I also got a hot wheel 370Z in blue. I want to find the yellow one :) I found that at Toys R Us!

=======================================
My wife surprised me with the following toys :) I get to add them to my collection (last pic). All the model cars I have, I owned the real car at some point in the past...

Anyone know if a 1/18th scale from kyosho or autoart is available or still available? Akira posted a pic here a while ago that showed some 370z's in a box that said "Nissan Model Car Collection", and they looked pretty sweet. How and where can I get them? I am ordering a white Ebbro and also got a 370Z roadmice (pc mouse) on the way!!! :)

Anyways, here's the pics of my "toys"!

Very cool. Has anyone seen a 370Z HO slot car?

FromG2Z 12-22-2010 10:07 AM

Thanks for the birthday wishes guys! It was last week... Yeah, the wife shops online a lot and she figured I've always loved my cars as well as my model cars, so she thought she'd do the same for the Z!

The silver one is a Maisto, and I think they come in red, black, and silver, if I am not mistaken. So answer to your question is "yes" (I think). But they're so rare. One place the wife called took our order, but was out of stock! :shakes head:

Thanks man! Yeah the Z in silver (a real Z I mean :)) is another one of my favorite colors.

So your avatar, what's the Z there? A hotwheel? I ordered a PC mouse that's modeled as a Z... not sure if it's the same thing? yours looks smaller.

Yep. Kyosho and Autoart are who I am waiting on. So far they have not said they are working on anything for the 370 yet. :(

I really hope they do because I REALLY want one.

No doubt... they make the BEST imo. In that last pic I have above, you see the red FD RX7? The big one? That's a Kyosho. I had that for about 6 years. IMO, it's the best model car I have ever seen or owned. The details are amazing. Nice and heavy, excellent quality. Heck, the paint is even smooth enough to WAX (and yes, I HAVE waxed it... isn't that sad???).

So yeah, let me know if you hear anything on the Kyosho's or Autoart's...
