All I do is look at the pics, those are some little amazing things. I'd buy some but I'm low on cash at the moment.

THanks, bidding on the Caramel Prime now.

I was first under the impression that there were older releases. Then I noted the "Generation One" logo on the side, which matches that used for the SCF PVC line. So these must be a newer release. Do you have a breakdown of which came out in what year?

Well, since they're all knockoffs (albeit using the same molds as the originals), they came out recently, like within the last 2 years.  The original ones came out in Japan back in the 80's, though, around when the original toys came out.

Do I see wst versions of Ravage, Getaway and Springer?

And if so, any chance you'll be getting them?

Yep, that's them.  I got only a very small supply of these in this time, since they're really hard to find in China, so I don't have any Ravages and Springers besides the ones I assembled.  I might get some more in in two months, though--I'm planning on getting about 32 different types then (I have a really great supplier who worked hard to track these down for me), but I'm not 100% certain whether Ravage and Springer will be among them.

 

As for Getaway, well, the kit really sucks, unfortunately.  It appear that the original one had a lot of little details that kind of wore off the metal die used to cast the plastic model over the years, to the point where assembling one is virtually impossible now.  I tried my best to assemble the one seen here:

But even using my best tricks it came out looking like crap.  There's no way I could sell something like that on Ebay :-/  What *really* sucks is that that's the model I was able to actually get 7 or so of.  I ended up giving 2 to a friend but now I have 5 that I'm just sort of sitting on indefinitely.

 

If you want one or two, I can throw them in for free with any other auctions you win/BINs you purchase.  Just let me know.  Maybe you will have better luck with it than I did with it /=)

hmm, you could sell it as "after Flamethrower encounter" Getaway.

 

but yeah, that looks like it would take a fair bit of work to look at all decent, and even the bigger getaway has fair bit of flash on it... and I needed to actually drill some holes for the wheels to stick on... ;) not that I'm complaining more "fun" that way.... pity red plastic holds paint the worse, especially white paint. I shall post some pictures sooner or later, but I sortof need to get a new Camera.
