Was at a local store buying an extra wing for my RC plane today (just in case). Out of habit, I walked over to the die cast section. Well, what do you know? Somone started carrying Green Light Muscle car garage 1/64s. Now, I bought a case of these a while back (no Green Machine in them, but very nice), so even though I was pleased to see Greenlight finally represented on the pegs locally I was still going to walk away....until I saw this little flash of green.


....just when I get out, they keep pulling me back in! Well, I tried, (I did, too), but I just couldn't leave this little guy in the store. The look my wife gave me as I bought it said "Uh, huh....you quit my a**."

I gotta work on my self discipline...

Wow, great find! If you quit collecting, you can't look at the pegs or this is what happens. I've seen some of your finds and I believe in your case they will jump off the pegs if you walk too close :tongue: Realistically, quit or not I don't think I could ever let something like that hanging ;)
