DLDude Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Check out this new kit from CoasterDynamix Comes in at about 7x15" and about 4 1/2" tall. Fits in your hand! Perfect desktop ornament for us coaster nerds out there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coaster Cow Posted May 6, 2010 Share Posted May 6, 2010 Um... This isn't very new, dude. I got it a while back and never felt like putting it together. I do know that some people theme theirs pretty cool though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJClarke0912 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 You're thinking of the Comet coaster, which is HO scale. This ride is O scale and has GCI trains on it, and I think is made of real wood. Trust me, it's new. DLDude is actually an employee of CoasterDynamix, so he obviously knows its new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trust me, it's new. DLDude is actually an employee of CoasterDynamix, so he obviously knows its new. If it is 7x15x4.5 it is not O scale. The CD inverts are O. This is definitely N. <-- Model Railroader, knows the scales really well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJClarke0912 Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 Whoops my bad, it is N scale. CD did mention working on an O scale woodie though, so that's probably the confusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vekoma Fan Boy Posted May 7, 2010 Share Posted May 7, 2010 ^Ah, I see. No big deal. I'm curious though, does the N scale version actually run? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLDude Posted May 7, 2010 Author Share Posted May 7, 2010 Yes this will be N-Scale. It does not run (there is no way to make trains this small that would actually work). Trust me, it looks REALLY cool sitting on a shelf or desk. At a price around $35, it's not meant to be anything like a Phoenix of Scorpion model, however it looks like a coaster and is definitely a must-have for any coaster-nut. I've already made room on my coastershelf for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering how little I know about all this, I'll stay out of this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
