Re: So I was at the Hobby store today.

i have the e320 and i would have to say am very unimpressed. don't want to rain on your parade but here are all of the things you should note:
dogleg hinges
no opening rear doors
no wood grain
painted mirror markers
non photoetched rear number
the rear shelf totally has no detail
headliner is questionable
the power seat buttons are just painted on
and when i recieved it the driver wheel came off so now it is just "put in place"

i mean if you look at this car and put it next to kyosho's cls500 it is just horrible. this is not as bad as aa's s550 but does put a ding in thier name.
so uh you said you and your friend where gonna buy some car at the hobby shop and "pyroed my ride" lol. i'm gonna guess the benz?
yeah all hobby shops are like filled to the top.

Re: So I was at the Hobby store today.

no way your hooby store is awesome, mine is a small place whit basically 1 isle and diecast and plastic models stacked up on top of eachother. and it is very outdated. also there is a cat that has been there since the place opened that roams around lol.

Re: So I was at the Hobby store today.

Well, my Kyosho has woodgrain, and yes, it isent super good, but i guess its still nice, and no, we dident torch it =(

I got a Dub Edition Range Rover from Target. We poured gasoline on that and set it on fire =)

Yea, the Hobby store is pretty cool, prices are expensive though. But yea, they have trains, scrapbooking stuff, RC cars, Plastic Models, Diecast. Everything =)
