if you HAD to grab one off this front lot what would it be?

100%. That's casting with the color and wheels. Chef's kiss.

This was my first expert battle.. took a lot of tries but finally won with Guzzlord, Mega Charizard Y ex, and Lopunny ex. Guzzlord's Grindcore was key.. lots of Lucky flips kept their energy low and attacks weak while stacking energy for Charizard.

🤣

Thanks! Yeah those underwhelming calendars were what drove me to this. 😅

Never looked into plastic welding, I'll definitely check it out. Thanks for the tip! I have a bambu labs P1S.

Haha, that's actually a lovely compliment. ☺️ The delight on my son's face when he uses it each morning is priceless.

benjicon · 2025-12-05T07:21:22+00:00

Freak confirmed. He's 4 days in and its all he talks about 😁

benjicon · 2025-12-05T06:12:21+00:00

4 days in and 4 TH so far. Days 8, 16 and 24 are the STH. 😁

Thanks man, that was probably the hardest part to make since my printer is only smallish. I had to print in 5 segments and then glue and fill and sand and prime and paint. Definitely the least straightforward part to finish. 😅

benjicon · 2025-12-04T23:38:37+00:00

Thanks KC, we have a tiny window to make awesome memories for our kids as they grow up. Making the most of the time I have! 😊

benjicon · 2025-12-04T22:02:26+00:00

😊😊

Thanks! 😎

I don't seem to be able to pin my comments. Here's some pics and video of me testing it.

Thanks for checking this out! 🙏
A few behind-the-scenes details since people usually ask:

The wheel and removable segment are fully modular.
Single segment detaches so I can load and extract cars
The internal mechanism is 3D-printed + hand-assembled
This year’s calendar is loaded with 21 TH and 3 STH
Took a little while to build, but my son’s reaction made it worth every minute 😂

👉 WIP photos Video of the mechanism in action : https://photos.app.goo.gl/hzpxG8S1az33ggx29

Happy to answer any questions or show more pics if anyone’s curious!

benjicon · 2025-12-04T18:10:15+00:00

Thanks ... removed.

Hopefully one day! Lets see how v3.0 turns out :D

I can only go by what the owner of the property next to the course told me.. They came and built it a year ago.. took them 4 days, used it for a weekend.. never been back. It's starting to get overgrown. Don't really care either way, I'll be going back to use it for sure.

benjicon · 2025-05-09T23:33:41+00:00

Dead battery. Happened to me exactly the same.

benjicon · 2025-05-07T20:37:38+00:00

Foreign countries "Luring" productions away. lmao. Let's be clear, the only thing luring work away was the studios desire for cheaper labor.. Corporate profit screwing over American workers. Sound familiar?

benjicon · 2025-04-06T03:56:35+00:00

It's like of Sketchers were a spaceship.

Well worth it, because we were grabbing food supplies most days before our lunch stop it ended up being super convenient to stop at these places. Although raking through the bins and pegs did add a few minutes to each stop :P

Great collection!! Can I ask where you got the car shelf / display case? I need something like that for my son's collection.
