Wow what a trip.
Bought a lot of stuff ranging from new cloths to a new tag watch. But in this forum most of you are wondering the goodies I bought.
Here is the list
1/12 Mclaren F1 Tamiya
1/12 Williams F1 Tamiya
1/24 studio 27 Mclaren F1 Marlbro race car (most expensive toy)
1/24 Revell Ferrari F1 Transport truck and trailer (Bargin at 36 dollars US)
1/24 tamiya Mclaren F1 (24 bucks for a discontinue kit not bad)
1/24 tamiya toyota sard (sale for 5 bucks US)
1/24 tamiya clk gtr sportswear (5 bucks us in the bargin bin)
1/24 fujimi rx-8 (24dollars I guess is okay since i save on shipping charges)
1/10 ABC Tureno limited edition with pop up head lights (rc guy will know abc bodies are hard to find)
1/60 Gundam Freedom and Wing gundam models (for you gundam fans out there, the wing gundam has a metal skeleton with light up eyes)
I will be going to japan in Octomber I have a few friends that has given me a list of what they want and I am willing to bring back a few other stuff for the people here.
Also I went to the tamiya musem and it was like heaven. All those rare kits and the cars they have there man was a dream come true.
Also stop by at Nissan car dealer where they display a real r390 road car was a blue one was just a beautiful car.
Ofcourse the skylines there were just amazing.
A friend took us to the night racing scene in japan and man those guys are crazy drifiting their cars on the streets. Boy I wish I could do that.
I will put some pictures up when I settle things down.
Also I will be selling an ABC tureno body (not the limited edition but the normal one) so if any of you are intrested give me a pm
Also I might sell a rare r390 1/10 tamiya body as well so let me know who wants it.
Oh and the girls oh my I am glad I am single, think i just made a few new pen pals :smokin: if you know what i mean
hehehe
and the mama san there also for you older folks who knows what I am talking about.
Just go to Japan folks you will not regreat it
For all those who are curious on how I fited all these or carry it here is the trick. Unpack all the models and label it then put all the tree in a hand carry bag. Flat out the boxes and packed in the trunk.
Then when you go to customs and the officer looks in the hand carry bag and see all the model parts and looks at you and say you must have a kid your reply would be yes i am the kid that is trap in this tall handsome body and the custom lady looks at you with a smile and gives you her phone number.
Now if I was so unluck to get a man for a custom officer I will not use that line but rather yes these are the ferrair models I picked up and he will probably look at me and give me a smile and his phone nubmer. :grinyes:

Very nice list of goodies you got, I wouldnt mind having that Ferrari transporter (would be better if it was 1/20th).
Sounds like you add a pretty cool and fun trip. My cousins going down there at the end of the month for a year, might have to go vist him after reading your stores.
