As a sleepy nation once more tips its nose to the grindstone, waiting until perhaps Easter or Black History Month to begin celebrating anew, one bastard still clings to the Yuletide spirit. That monocoque could really use some carbon fiber decals, huh?

MP 4/4? It's a beauty all naked like that.

It sure is.

And it's gonna stay that way because the two big turbos in the back keep the body shell from seating properly.

Wait, is this lego?

Well, it's plastic (and rubber and some metal).

Not Lego, though.

Tamiya? 1:12 scale? How much did it cost?

Oh man, I wish it were the 1/12 McLaren. In a masochistic sort of way. I know I'd never be able to do the model justice.

No, this is from Tamiya's 1/20 Grand Prix series. It was about $48.

Did you make it yourself? If you did, where'd you get the parts. If not, where do I get one of these?

Ha, sorry to string you along.

It's a 1/20 Tamiya kit. I got it for about $48.
