It took me 10 years of ebaying to collect my grail lists. It gets expensive. But when I opened a brand new cosma ray to build......aaaaaaah . like being a kid again except now you can build a nice kit. totally worth it. |

Nicely done... and a great collection as well.
The one I had many years ago had a metallic red plastic that cracked like rock candy. It was very brittle. Several others here said theirs did the same thing, so apparently they had a run of the bad plastic, and that's a contributing factor to why we don't see too many of those built up.

All of these were like that . I was lucky enough to get new kits instead of having to rebuild a built kit like a lot of mine. |

The same thing happened to my metallic red Deal's Bug Bomb - I dropped it on the carpet and the body broke in two places ! Never had that happen before |

I have the Medicine Man and the T-bone Stake and both of them were good plastic... I guess I got lucky? But that other one cracked so easily there was no saving anything. Just cutting them off the sprues would crack things right in two. So sad, because it was a beautiful color and a cool kit.

Wow that looks great! You clear-coated the plastic and it looks like a killer paint job. I like the flat white on the mixer and flat Brown or Burgundy you used on the rails looks great all together.
