I was waiting for team "green" to show up again ! :D Turned out nice ! I can certainly appreciate the effort it takes to buff those parts out and keep them clean . Nice job again !

Gorgeous build's Rob!

I have never seen the clear driver figure you have on the green car. I have to ask, is it a genuine Kyosho driver figure? Is it for the Pro?

Cheers- Jason.

Not to pre-empt Bullfrog's response, but my money is on a reproduction Javelin doll.

The green car has unusual suspension arms...which manufacturer are they?

they look like Andy's light weight arms. L ove the builds bullfrog what color cage are you going to use on the green javelin, the yellow would look awsome on that! Here is a pic of my polished turbo optima project which I still need to complete but I was very happy with the results so far I actually like it better than the gold optimas

Driver is a repro, got it from Marwan , Arms on the green chassis are Andys for a Optima mid, with the Javelin cage, all I have is a used Orange cage so i will be painting it, hopefully it turns out ok,
murphy3428, the Optima Turbo looks great, I've got a few that i have polished already, they do look better than the gold, but it would be nice to own a gold one, i'll post more of my Optimas soon, there's about 10 of them.

cheers
