I bought a Blue 2022 GT with the Perf Pkg wing and wheels. I took it apart, scratched up the paint and laid down some white. It is now a perfect copy of my Oxford White GT!!

Greenlight made a series of lifts, one being Michelin: GL 16130-B, 2021. Gulf is also available.

Yesterday, I unboxed a recent purchase and found some slight marring on the blister pack. While it didn't necessarily wreck it, eyes tend to focus on what's different and are later drawn to it.

Experimenting on a disposable food container first, I later confirmed Meguiar's PlastX is safe :thumbsup: to use and works well at removing blemishes, scratches and other detractors from diecast model packaging.

Using a clean, dry cotton cloth, PlastX and moderate pressure, I ultimately made three passes with the product. Any obvious blemishes were lifted to where they are now indistinguishable from the rest of the patina. šŸ˜

Thanks.

Location dependent. None yet at closest Costco to me. Staff I asked did not know when. Want to get there day one before that batch is picked over.

I hear you. When I was there the only F1 collections they had were Mercedes and Red Bull. My wife goes back a few days later and found a Ferrari for me. With Costco you never know.

It always blows my mind how much product they carry and yet you never know if some of the things youā€™re looking for will actually be there when you go shopping.

That's actually part of the fun of shopping there. You never know what you will find.

Very true, although we (ok, me) are particular about using certain brands for certain items and there are times when itā€™s not there and Iā€™m all of a sudden a defeated man and am no longer enjoying my shopping trip šŸ¤£

That's why they sell 55 gallon drums of Rocky Road to ease the pain.
