I would use a satin acrylic paint for the leather seats and regular for the non shiny parts. Gloss for anything that is supposed to be shiny.  Just make sure you use tiny brushes for the details. Nice thing about acrylic, you can wash it off with water before it dries completely.  Buy a cheap toy car to practice on before you do the good one.


The paints can be bought at stores like Michaels , Hobby Lobby and Jo Ann fabrics.

Meanwhile, the obsession continues. Today I ordered another Johnny Rocket Futura -- this time in black!

Love that ED-209! Been debating on getting it and the new Hot Toys Robocop figures when they come out.

It does look "pretty" good.  The head seams and pouches are a definite minus though.

$799 SGD?  What unit of currency is that?

Andy, that is Singapore dollars. Still very expensive at $633 US dollars!

I know they were on display a few pages back but these Batman TV show figures look really nice.

They really are very tempting, I'd for the Bats figure over Robin.
Very nice.

Cheers, Peter

Batmobile, yes, probably. Figures, no.

(Well, well! It would seem my spellchecker has been updated! It now recognizes Batmobile and Batman!)

Preordered my '66 Batman yesterday. I mean, it comes with a bomb! That bomb that some days you just can't get rid of!

I wonder if each piece will arrive individually labeled.
