Default Most Desired Shelf Queen ?

Following on from the hall of fame thing on the Gadget show between the lunch box and rough rider, if you could have any R/C car in mint condition as a shelf queen what would it be?

Sexy!!!

Anyone got any idea if there will be a re-release of the Sand Scorcher? (since they already did the Rough Rider)

No rumours as yet but its bound to happen. The value of my two plummeted 3 weeks after i bought them due to the Re Re of the Rough Rider

Ive got a few shelf queens feel free to see my showroom via the bottom link folks. Currently restoring a few more too

I'd really like one of the Tamiya 1/12 959's or Celicas. I always wanted one back in the day, it was just such a neat piece of engineering.
But I don't do shelf queens. Cars have to run, or they end up in the loft. I have no shelf space for mere ornaments.
