nostalgic Posted June 24, 2013 Report Share Posted June 24, 2013 It has been been pretty dry for hot wheels here for a while But tonight Im jealous! So this is from the island? Here on the mainland the stores either: 1) don't stock Blvd's anymore 2) have 3 or 4 pegs full of some hot tub on wheels, or a reversed trike with a massive wing on the back We also have this guy (I was borrowing someone's computer, so I snapped a pic with my phone instead of saving a screenshot) Anyways, to make my first post less boring, here's a 510 I repainted a while ago. 1 Quote Link to comment

nostalgic Posted June 26, 2013 Report Share Posted June 26, 2013 What did you use to paint the little details? Mostly with a very sharp toothpick. Sometimes when I want a perfect circle shape, I use the chuck end of a drill bit. Quote Link to comment

nostalgic Posted July 19, 2013 Report Share Posted July 19, 2013 Update on my customized nostalgics collection: just finished the 2000GT late last night. Project in the works next to it is a widebody Starion using an AE86 as a base. 3 Quote Link to comment
graveltrapp Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Great work on the 2000, who made the Starion model? never seen one on the pegs. 1 Quote Link to comment
RATDAT3 Posted July 20, 2013 Report Share Posted July 20, 2013 Anyone got a better idea how to take the rivets out? I've been drilling them, but that tears up the bottom......any idea's would help. Thanks! Quote Link to comment

Thanks! This vid is pretty comprehensive about taking them apart: Great work on the 2000, who made the Starion model? never seen one on the pegs. Thanks!! I used the panda AE86 from Hot Wheels, but to shape the body I had to use lots of styrene plastic and sculpting putty. 3 Quote Link to comment

nostalgic Posted July 21, 2013 Report Share Posted July 21, 2013 Thanks guys! Hoping to finish up the Starion in the next couple weeks as I get supplies in the mail and deal with school/work.
