I got the replacement parts yesterday....and it was the battery pack that was bad. Either way, glad to be back in business on building it.

That's what I thought, but oddly enough, I'm now leaning more toward a bad battery pack. In Pack 6, we get a different board, and it's also not working when using the Stage 1 Battery Pack. I've been in contact with Agora and they are sending me new stuff....so hopefully that works.

In pack 1, we're encouraged to test the LED's and are provided with a battery pack and test board. I put batteries in, tested all 4 LEDs and none of them worked. I verified all four batteries were installed properly, and still nothing. I put 4 brand new batteries in, and nothing I think it would be a bit odd that all four LEDs would be bad, so I'm leaning toward a bad test board or battery pack. Is there something I'm missing?

Eaglemoss had one listed as "Coming Soon" before they folded. If I remember right, it wasn't "licensed" as the Bullitt car, but was just a Highland Green 68 Mustang GT Fastback and one of the "extras" you could get was a set of Torq Thrust wheels like the one in Bullitt.

The General Lee won't happen. Warner Brothers discontinued all licensing of General Lee models/toys/images in 2015 for....The Reason (not giving my opinion one way or the other, just stating why). There was someone who modded the Fast And Furious Charger to be a General Lee Charger (with a blower lol). He did a good job with it.

I believe Hachette did a Trial of the Hogwart's Express about 3 years ago....was really hoping that one would make it to production. Nice looking train, international appeal, and a pretty dedicated fanbase. I'm not even a Harry Potter Fan and I was planning on subscribing if it came to the US.

Huh...well...nevermind, Pack 2 showed up yesterday in the mail. Just never got a Shipping E-mail for it.

Has anyone in the U.S. gotten pack 2 yet? I was charged for Pack 2 on 5/19, and Pack 3 on 6/19, but I haven't had any deliveries since Pack 1 in early May.

I pay with PayPal, so I get an E-mail from them when Payment has been taken, then an E-mail from Agora once it's shipped.

Mine is the same way with Optimus Prime....it shows the Shelby Cobra and the Miura, but no Optimus Prime. I have the first pack and have already been charged for the second.

I was getting ready to say that.....$1,900 for something that you don't build...you take it out of the box and...there it is. "Cool, we'll put it right here and....ummmm....I guess I'll go see a movie now or...something"

That looks great....I've been trying to come up with something to do with the floor pan of that car...it looks so unfinished. Where did you find that stuff?

I'm exactly the same....I don't build these because I want it to be finished. TBH, I still worry what I'm going to do with all these models when I'm done building them. I do it because I enjoy watching it come together....the process of it. Once it's done, it just sits there; I don't play with them. I'd much rather build a static model, then buy one that "does things" like the Auto-Transforming one shown above.

Oddly enough, even though the DB5 is one of most beautiful cars ever built, the one I'm most looking forward to is the V8 Vantage from The Living Daylights. It's just such an odd duck of a car...it's like an Aston Martin had a One-Night-Stand with a Mach-1 Mustang. I saw that movie when it came out (I was about 13 if you want to do that math) and even then I fell in love with the car.

Optimus Prime is the same price (119.99 x 11)....so that's probably the new "standard" due to Inflation.
