Not exactly what this thread was meant for, but it's the only Christmas thread we have so far so I had to post this. I picked up a few of these yesterday. You have to click on the boxes to see the pics on the back too. They are very well done and had me laughing like an idiot in the store where I found them.
While there are a ton of vintage RCs that are on my dream list no one can afford to buy me NIB and I don't trust their judgement buying used so if I could get something RC for Christmas I would love at least one Toyota in the garage
My wife got me something, but for the life of me I can't figure out what it is. Her only clue was "You're gonna love it." I can't wait for Christmas morning to find out what it is!

Hakko 888 soldering iron. In the past I've only used cheap irons and the results were not so good. For years now I've been relying on other people soldering my stuff for me. I'm hoping the hakko will turn me into a soldering pro.
I recieved my Bosscat works today and was pleasantly surprised to find some extra goodies in the box.

Over here in Australia we never get to have a white xmas.
I have always wondered what it would be like to enjoy the traditional white xmas over in the USA.
What areas do you recommend for a great xmas experience.

Maybe I need to do a house swap with someone over there. That way a Canadian/American family could see what it's like to have a summer Xmas in Australia. It's certainly not all bad, I even have a good r/c collection to peruse through too ;-)
Many years ago I started a tradition at Clodtalk where I would write a Christmas story that involved the member of our beloved site. I put forth the idea here to our sister site in hopes that a similar love and camaraderie exists here (I know it...
