What would be interesting?

Almost anything besides gimmicky 6 gear short arm cars.

Mine just arrived, kit #1995. Note the number is not on the box so you have to crack the seals to see if you got a number or a box of rocks! Schrö-edinger RC10 haha!

Many are. Mine has minor crease on o...

Schrodinger can't find his cat because Aunt Bethany wrapped it up and gave it away as a Christmas gift.

Here's another shot of Rudy being quiet and unassuming.... What you can't see is that he's lying directly on top of a hot water bottle!! Guess the poor little blighter is feeling the cold a touch....

Dogs are such faithful companions. Even at 16 Buster still offers to help carry the bacon to the table.

I'm sure we all remember the giant glass case of R/C cars at Toys R Us, and not to mention the aisle with all the NES flip cards where we would stand for as long as our mom would let us and try to determine which game to buy from reading the maker's outlandish descriptions and a few microscopic scre...
