Team Colors Iridium V2: New and Improved

Team Colors Iridium for @quarxn0x. We tried to stay as faithful as possible to what this version would have looked like if it were real. This includes custom Gen 2 decals, the window from a rare Max Steel Iridium, and original Gen 2 clear-spoke CM6s!

Hit the jackpot on marketplace today!

I found these guys in a lot on marketplace for only $40 and had to make my way downtown (a hateful experience) to snatch them up. They were pretty dirty and scuffed, but some warm soapy water and plastic polish has them looking very nice! I'm stoked on finding more Steering Rigs for my collection!

Sweet 16

2 1973 Sweet 16s! 1 is a Lemon Yellow and the other is Dark Green, which my price guide thinks is super rare. Not sure how accurate that really is, but hey. It's cool!

Grail Aquired

I've been chasing a Grey-over-Spectraflame Rolls Royce Silver Shadow for probably about 10 years. Yeah, I could've probably found one on ebay, but where's the fun in that? And now, I finally found one in the wild. And who knew, it was on Facebook Marketplace! I spotted it in a mixed lot of redlines and asked the seller for closeups. Once I saw the engine bay, I threw them an offer they couldn't refuse to break it out of the lot of junkers. It ain't the best. The paint is worn, the wheels are pretty chewed up, and the hood is slightly bent. But I am so hyped to finally own one of these! A purple no less! I never thought I'd find one that wasn't green underneath!

Accelecharged

I can't get over how good the transparent blue looks on this Accelecharged Iridium! Commissioned by @quarxn0x. Huge thanks to her for sourcing all the parts for this build. Truly a 1 of 1 that will probably never be replicated

Getting closer (Tamiya Hakosuka update)

Shoutout Aoshima for having the best 1:24 scale jdm small wheels. I tried a set of Fujimi Techno Phantoms and was sorely disappointed with the quality and fitment of such an expensive part. These Aoshima SSR MK1s are THE BOMB. And for 2/3 the price of the Fujimis! This is coming together just as I invisioned it...

Ghost Green MST

Another MST Suzuka. This time in Ghost Green Pearl over black by @eyecandypigments. Kept the offroad wheels, but ditched the orange windows for a slightly classier, less gaudy version of this iconic racer.

Cursed Reverb 2

If you never had a reverb as a kid, you pretended with 1 of 2 castings. Zotic, or the Honda HSC Concept. Pretend no more, because this VTEC monster has been decked out in spectraflame blue with that iconic Teku livery!

For sale on ebay!

Compound curves can go to hell (Tamiya Hakosuka: Update 5)

In light of forgetting to paint the hood the same color as the body, I've decided to go carbon. Getting this decal to lay flat was a true pain. I might hit it with some gold candy to tie into the gold in the rest of the paint scheme.
