I guess it's a werewolf. This is the MPC 'Night Crawler'. It's one of the 3-kit 'big head' series that also includes 'Creepy T' and 'Mummy Machine'. Those two have been re-issued and so they are a little more familiar. This one never was.

Just finished. Don't see these too often. 'C'mere, boy! Who's a good boy?'

I didn't paint it. Just polished it with toothpaste.

Anybody got a pair of big, wide rubber racing slicks and rims (preferably 1/24) that they don't care about. I don't have a lot of parts to trade, but I do have some, or I'll pay cash. Thanks!

ust ordered WAVE 'Nemo's Car' off eBay. Feeling pretty ashamed to spend so much on a model kit. Last month I bought a real car for less! Shame on me. But it's SO COOL!

Really like that Barris "Ice Cream" Truck. Lovely color combo, the pink is so much better than box art red. Thanks!

I need a set of big, swoopy chrome headers, like the ones from The Undertaker would be perfect, or Sand Shark, even even the ones from Bugaboo would work. Anyone have something like that laying around?

I like going with the molded color when I can, but I'm an idiot - I never thought of polishing it! Now I have to rebuild half of my cars! How exactly did you do the polishing?

Back in the early 70s, every corner drug store had a 'model kit' section. I remember as a kid being fascinated with the Tom Daniel designs (I had no idea they were all designed by the same guy, or who Tom Daniel even was). I think they were about $5 back then, so I would have to save my allowance for a couple of moths to get one! I think my first was T'rantula and I was so in love with it (still am). Then Red Baron, Cherry Bomb, Ice 'T'. Funny thing is, I'm pretty sure I never actually finished any of them. As an 8 year old kid, I didn't have the patience. Soon after, I discovered rock-n-roll and forgot all about models for about 40 years. A couple of years ago I stumbled on some Tom Daniel kits on Ebay (Wow, I remember those!) The first one I got? T'rantula, of course! Now I'm so hooked I need therapy!

I recently moved and somehow managed to lose the engine cover (with decals) for my Tom Daniels Fire Iron. I don't suppose any of you have one laying around?

Thanks, Brandon. I decided to go another way... Sorry it took me a month to check the posts!

I'm building AMT Stingaree and I want to add tail lights. Anybody have the four little round corvette tail lights with plated housing?

I'm not a scratch builder, but if I was I'd be all over this thing. It might be the coolest car I've ever seen. Maybe one of you guys is looking for a new project. Just Google " 1925 Rolls Royce"

Wow, bad decision. Now I've got $30 I can spend on something else...

I don't want it if the forks aren't plated. If it's a mistake, do you think there's a chance they will do a another run and fix it? Anyone with news, please post!

I gotta say, I've been watching this quietly from the beginning and I'm completely engrossed. Watching your progress is as addicting as waiting for the next episode of Game Of Thrones! You are a master and I can't wait to see the finished masterpiece!

I'm really liking the white Boot Hill Express. Thanks! I wish it showed in the photo, but instead of posing the skeleton next to the car, I laid him inside the carriage with his arms folded across his chest. Gives the whole thing a real 'funeral' vibe. I had to leave out the gas tank and cut his legs off at the knee.

I've got the wheelie bars from TD's Vampire Trike but it's 1/12 scale. Maybe you can cut them down or something? If you want them, they're yours.

Where can I find one? There's no news about it on TD's site. Searched the web a little, can't find it. Where should I look?
