That was my FAVORITE version of that truck. It was also one of my favorites overall as a kid, just because of the eyes lol.  _________________

I agree with you, out of all the paint schemes Deihl ran on Virginia Giant, for some reason, the 1998-1999 scheme was my favourite.
As for the "GIANT" logo on the grille, I'm working on getting it to flash properly. Does anyone know if it's possible to have alternating flashing lights? For example, is it possible for one light to flash, while the other is off, then have the first light turn off and the second flash, for a set pattern?

This version?:
Since it used the same chassis as the one I'm currently working on, I might do a replica of it, after.
Also, the Maniacs have been released...

That's the version I was talking about, John. That thing looked BEAST.
Great job on Maniac, by the way, glad to see you got the color issue straightened out. It was probably the track you were using that was causing the color problems before. |

YES it is, like I said hit me up, check out the liscense plates on my Chaotic Intions when the lights are on, it alternates Red and blue flashes reading "XFA" inline with the plate, I could EASILY make each individual letter flash differently if I wanted too _________________ Hey kid, are you going my way?
