Opinions on an x-mas gift.
What would you think of getting this for x-mas?

Well. It doesn't appeal to me so much, but I'd enjoy something like that. Maybe an original Transformer? Or something like Voltron? Or maybe Thundercats. Maybe a GI Joe? But it's still cool. Model cars are good.

Hey!
It has freaking retractable saw-blades and the jumper-thingies! Quality don't come cheap....besides, you're getting it as a gift so the price shouldn't be a factor.

Yeah. I wouldn't mind a model. Maybe it's an age thing. I'm 19. I'd feel kinda dorky getting a model from my childhood. But for you Dig that was 30-something years ago. Right?

Forget that, DW -- why not drop $72K and get the real thing instead?

I'd seen that before, but must admit that the picture of it gave me a warm shiver and made me smile. That would be a BLAST to drive around town!

The ghostbuster car was just a modified Hearse.

An ambulance was based off of a hearse.... That's what I always thought.... Ever notice how identical they look. The Hearse was made by Jaguar I believe.
