I want to get paid for smashing up die-cast cars!

Those do look pretty cool, though...

dont forget, the bonzai tree.

Talking Head hitting

If I knew anyone that paid that kind of money for a Bonsai tree and a trashed diecast car, I'd be compelled to hit their head on a tree for them

Please shoot me if they get rich off of this scheme:badass:

Exclamation

Only in America!!
No wonder you guys carry guns with nutters like that about!
So people REALLY pay $125 for a die-cast that has been beaten with a hammer?
