I'm working on another set of decals. This one is Kyle Busch's 2010 Michigan Nationwide COT car. I have a few more adjusting. With my OCD it's gotta look perfect which is making it a total pain in the butt. I have the car all stripped of the decals and I gotta paint it a nice gloss black. Here is a preview of the set. Don't mind the watermarks.

They weren't really that bad. You just have to have alot of patients and need to take your time with applying them or you can ruin them |

Has Spin Master released any new cars yet? Nope and it looks like 2016 may be their final year. These last 3 months the only thing they've released has been boxes of only Jeff Gordon. Should they leave it'll be considered a flop because -their distribution was absolutely atrocious. -the 2012 Unites debacle. I think some Walmarts STILL  ing have some. -case after case of the same garbage. My Target is still putting out cases of the 2nd wave of 2015 and they've been out since March! -there was no schedules for when these came out. To a point Jakks has better distribution with their TNA line. -all of the NASCAR Spinmaster social media accounts have been abandoned since March, leaving us with absolutely no updates. People are contacting the main Spinmaster accounts and getting lines that are only written on paper at this point and have no merit. After they had the $2 sale at Walmart mine just stopped leaving a peg for them, so I'm assuming that we're not getting anymore. Its a shame because Spinmaster was good. They weren't necessarily competition to Lionel since Spinmaster was only available in brick and mortar stores (besides eBay and TRUs website). This is ultimately the problem. NASCAR wants to get new fans and most kids find NASCAR by going to the store and picking out diecasts of their driver. Thats not the case anymore. Before you'd see 2-4 rows of NASCAR and now we're lucky to get a damn peg. NASCAR got greedy, merged ACTION and Team Caliber, took the licenses away from Hot Wheels and Ertl (Racing Champions) and after awhile Motorsports Authentics shut down Winners Circle, which was absolutely dumb because it took away the last retail NASCAR merchandise. They shot themselves in the foot and now we're left with only Spinmaster, who puts waves out whenever they feel like it. |

It doesn't surprise me, considered they were only saran wrapped on there. |

Atlas Copco probably had some restrictions on who was able to get a car since most freebie offers you have to prove credentials that you own a business or are in the industry they cater to. Cargill Employees got Ricky Stenhouse Jr. hats. You couldn't buy them at the racetrack or on NASCAR.com You don't see too many inflatable NASCAR's anymore |
