Excellant work! I have some of his ART right in front of me! I hope to be adding to it soon . . .
Too cool!!! Great work..BRAVO!!
It’s a “pitty” that we can’t buy this set right now!!!
Nathaniel, I am impressed with your work and your creativity..thank you for making these available to us, and thanks Met for allowing N8 to use the Take5 logo and name for all of us addicts who just NEED one!!
Story of the day…
I’m out of town for work and I call my wife who was just at Target with our son.
Mrs. Hinkey: “We were just at Target”
Me: “Did you go down the cars aisle?”
Mrs. Hinkey: “Of course”
Me: “We are looking for Trunk Fresh Hauler and Sven”
Mrs. Hinkey: “Yeah I saw about 4 each of those, But I assumed that we already had them, because there were so many.”
Me: *WTF*
Mrs. Hinkey: “Don’t worry I’ll pick one of each up tomorrow. They will still be there.”
Me: *WTF?*
She has much to learn…..
(MET: Funny
).
LOL
I still have a voicemail at work saved since the Summer of 2006. On it, my wife is at Target and found Lizzie’s, Sarge’s, Wingo’s, DJ’s, Chick Hicks’s, Red & Stanley’s, Flo & Ramone’s, and the list went on and on. For those of you collecting back then, you know how fast I called cell phone as soon as I heard that message!!
Funny, my wife does the same thing too, except she actually buys them!
BTW, I finally found Trunk Fresh hauler yesterday. The Target by me just got a new box, they had four in all.
OK – I’ll throw my plug in here for Nate too – he’s done a few diecast customs for me now and the quality of his work really is outstanding. Seriously do not hesitate to contact him and have a car worked on, he’s great to communicate with too.
Darth8,
Gotta admit I love your avatar, reminds me how I was in the thick of of building exactly him year ago today.
DarthMater, what a wild ride that was
It’s OK as long as I only have to do one in my lifetime.
If I remember correctly it took about 8/10 different Depts. here at Mattel to give birth to him. Damn…………..It turned out nice, just wish we could have got more for him @ the Dream Halloween Auction, bad economy surely didn’t help…..
Will he become a 1:55 lenny/blinker or classics/Final Lap or a Car Wars theme motif?
How much did he go for at auction?
10K, it should have gone for about 100K at least!
don’t worry martin, it was just poor luck that it didn’t get the bid it deserved!
