Hay ciertas cosas que no puedo sacarme de la cabeza, porque fueron grabadas con fuertes dosis de violencia (gratuita o justificada).
Por ejemplo, la cinta Aliens El Regreso de 1986, que es para mí el NON PLUS ULTRA de todas las películas que haya visto.
O la persecución suicida de la cinta Cobra - El brazo fuerte de la ley (1986), con Silvester Stallone al volante de un "Awsom 50" más comúnmente conocido como Mercury Monterrey de 1950.
Creo que este auto y su conductor logran una increíble sinergia en cuanto a la rudeza de su carácter y una apariencia que dice: "Lárgate de mi vista escoria criminal o lamentarás haber respirado a 3 metros de mí"...
Ahhh, no puedo negar que una parte de mí añoraría ser un policía renegado, de muy malos modales y que conduzca una fiera como esta que Hot Wheels presenta aquí muy en su estilo exagerado, tomando un Custom Car y convirtiéndolo en un Dragster (auto altamente modificado para competencias de 1/4 de milla), diseñado por Phil Riehlman.
Me encanta su esquema de color (en especial el uso del dorado en vez del cromado) y sus detallados tampos. Estoy cumpliendo a cabalidad eso de que "este año iría sobre ruedas", pero autos no es lo único que verán aquí...
Hasta la próxima semana y que DIOS nos bendiga... =)

There are certain things I cannot get out of my head, because they were carved with high doses of violence (gratuitous or justified).
For example, Aliens The Return movie (1986), which is for me the NE PLUS ULTRA of all the movies I’ve seen.
Or the suicidal chase of the film Cobra - The strong arm of the law (1986), with Silvester Stallone at the wheel of an "Awsom 50" more commonly known as 1950 Mercury Monterey.
I think this car and its driver achieved an incredible synergy in terms of the harshness of their character and a look that says: "Get outta my sight criminal scum or ya’ll regret having breathed 10 feet away from me"...
Ohhh, I cannot deny that I would love to be a renegade cop, with very bad manners and leading a beast like this that Hot Wheels introduce here in its very exaggerated style, taking a Custom Car and turning it into a Dragster (highly modified car for 1/4 mile competitions), designed by Phil Riehlman.
I’m sold with its color scheme (specially the use of golden finishing instead of chromed finishing) and its detailed tampos. I’m doing that of "this year would be on wheels", but not only cars you will see here...
Until next week and may GOD bless us... =)

What a Hot Rod! Extravagant and flamboyant to describe. It's like going for a ride at Las Vegas! The chassis had covered the rear tires. I bet there would be big trouble when the rear tires were punctured.
this car is huge in the real life, like a decent pick-up today, but its design is kinda out of its time cuz i have seen some comic illustrators & artist taking it as a reference for their futuristic stories, specially in the Batman imaginery... BTW, i dunno how they change tires, but i think it would b better to use modern sealed (or armored) tires, that would go like a glove for a car like this HAHAHA... THX for ur visit =)
I can imagine flames coming out from the side and back exhaust from this baby. XD
now i published a video of the Cobra’s car chase i mentioned (dubbing in italian, is the best i could find)... i guess u can see the flames running out from this monster LOL... i just love it !!! THX again for ur visit & comment =)
I wonder how they change the back wheels on the road...change that will be difficult.
i’m pretty sure there must b a way to change these rear tires cuz this is not the only vehicle with back cover (specially in the luxury models like this one) the problem is that this is a heavy guy (4 tons -of decadence- or so)... THX for ur visit LEon =)
