It's been a while since I've gotten anything new. Well, here are my three newest models I recieved for Christmas. BMW Z4, Escalade, and CLK GT.

And here are two West Coast Chopper trucks I picked up at Wal-Mart the other day. They are 1/64 scale and have a snap suspension that you can press on the top and it will lower/raise the truck. Pretty good quality for such small trucks too.

Very nice CLK-DTM and Escalade! Can't say I like Z4s... The Slade looks a little small when next to the Merc, is it on scale?

Thanks guys.
Yea, the 'sclade is 1/18 and appears to be about right. It does look pretty small in the picture, but its pretty damn big. I too am not a fan of the Z4, but it was a gift from my moms best friend so I didn't want to be rude. And I actually got a Bburago Murci and my mom said I could exchange it b/c I already have an AA one. And that's how I ended up with the CLK. The CLK is Maisto, but is very very good quality. I've never been that impressed by a Maisto before.

I have the same CLK, it along with 4 other race car models fell 10 feet, onto my desk and then onto the floor. Part of the decals on the roof got ripped off the CLK-DTM and other stuff...it really sucked, I liked it alot.. :( :(

I know the feeling. I had a very nice and expensive glass case, with a mirrored back that my mom bought for me for christmas years and years ago(actually bought me 2). Well one of them wound up on the floor. Glass was everywhere. And it damaged a few of my most favorite models. Including the extremely rare and now very expensive UT McLaren. I was pretty upset. And now I can't even find the exact same case any longer.
