Shelby Collectibles: KR, Super Snake 2008 1:18
Hey everyone, just got some more 1/18s in the mail
I must say Shelby Collectibles in giving AutoArt a run for it's money. The detail on these things recently is really surprising me. The wheels and rubber on the KR and SS are perfect, as well as the badging. Wish I had pictures but my cam is acting up
but I'll get some up soon!
Also, the stripes and paint on the "kitt" KR look so sharp. I mean looking at it right now, you'd swear it was the real car shrunken down to 1/18! Also...it is a detail...but the display stand nameplates for these things (ex. GT500 KR) are painted and look good as well. They used to be cheap stickers that would peel off usually. SC seems to be paying much more attention to the details...
I'll have pics soon guys and I know I know
until I get them lol

Hijacker!! Just kidding, nice pics, aren't these models awesome... I got my camera to smarten up and got some alright pictures. Don't mind the giant iMac box
Zoran, I promise you will not be disappointed by the quality and awesomeness of these models. SC has really stepped it up a notch. Ok maybe 2 notches!
Enjoy!
PS- I gotta say, black w/ matt black stripes looks way too awesome..

I thought the same, then looked at some pics. If it was the one with the Shelby not badged on the hood, then shouldn't the heads be blacked out like the actual Shelby factory built it?
Check out this pic.
I don't know what to think!!

Nice! this post got me excited, and I ordered the Black version. KITT *shudder*. Not that I don't mind the show. I just hate when I like something and then something mainstream uses it too. Then people think that I'm doing it only because they are. Just like when Fred Durst started wearing his red Yankee hat, I stopped wearing mine.
I'm getting it because its the closest model to my car that has the black stripes that I will be putting on my car in a week or two.
