Hot Wheels 2004 First Edition 001 Batmobile


The ever-thoughtful Mr. T ( Tonie Algunas) surprised me with a birthday gift this morning at the office with a Hot Wheels 2004 First Edition 001 Batmobile! I debated for awhile whether I should open the carded diecast until the wrinkle on the lower part of the package decided it for me. Man! I wanted to get this baby into my hands:) Here's a quick walk-around of the model. It's in purple and black metal flake (Hot Wheel's term for metallic colored castings) with a black base and PR5 wheels. The PR5 series of diecast wheels were named for Phil Riehlman -- celebrated Hot Wheels designer -- who designed the wheel starting with the 2000 series. More pix when I get this baby home and under my studio lights. Enjoy!

Migrating to Facebook

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!

Custom ARAH Duke

Here's another repainted Duke with some new ammo packs made in putty. This is a custom painted 1993 Battle Corps Battle Commander Duke. One of my early experiments with epoxy putty. I have another version of this figure on the workbench so expect to see it soon here too.
