I saw a couple of these at the hobby show last year. Thay were so cool. You can bend the track however you want and make your own designs. I would of bought one, but they were real expensive.

Those models are so amazing. If i had that kind of money, I wouldn't mind buying the whole line of them. I think the inverted coasters are their best.

The scorpion is $200 and the bigger one is $500. They are expensive, but probably worth it.

yeah those are really awsome models and i agree with you guys TOO EXPENSIVE lol if they were in the 50-100 dollar range i would buy one but i think 200-500 is pushing it just a little

I can see that as a reasonable price for the comet if they already have it assembled. Plus, don't they use actual steel rather than plastic? I could be wrong, but i thought they did and that would make it REALLY expensive.

I dont think they use steel because you can bend it and it snaps to the ties. Takes a while to do, but you will be happy with the outcome.

It's mostly plastic but I think the rails are metal.

Well in that case then yeah, the prices are pretty high. Oh well, another advantage to having a lot of cash.
