Mark mentioned WallyWorld, funny as I was there today looking at their cars. They had the usual assortment, and one that I bought.

This was one I had never seen before a 300SLR. Now before you say "they've had 'em for years", I'm talking about the "kit". I have a Maisto 300SLR that I've had for a while, but today I saw that WallyWorld now has the kit by Maisto. Same car and same detail, except it is in pieces.

Took about 2 1/2 hours to put together (I wasn't in any hurry), was kind of fun to do too. Looks just like the one I have sitting mint in it's box, but without a display stand.

Word of caution: not for the easily frustrated. Lots of very small parts and connectors plus the directions are only pictures with no explanation.
