Nerd.

Oh yeah, I admit it. I'm actually kind of pissed. I can't imagine how much worse this will get in the future because the partial season sponsorship packages which have come about in recent years have been a boon for diecast companies.

It never dawned on me until AARP caught on and decided to tweak it in each of the last three years (when the original was the best anyway).

I keep not buying NASCAR diecasts, and I keep regretting not starting a collection.

The Dale Jr. 2014 winner was tempting to buy as gently caress...why I have not bought that yet? :negative:

Want to know the ridiculousness of NASCAR merchandising? I got bored tonight and inventoried my Gordon car collection, which has been growing for 20 years. Around 2007, I stopped buying cars which I deemed to either a) be so close to the standard scheme that it wasn't worth the money and/or b) a released car which was the same as a scheme run in previous years.

I have 71 diecasts, most of which are 1:64. Four are the same car, repeat purchases (Gordon Rainbow 1996, 1999 1:64, 1997 1:144. Gordon Flames 2004), but shifts to new body style (Gordon Monte Carlo 1995, 2007 Flames CoT) count as different. I plan on picking up the Panasonic car (it rules) and, because I'm a glutton, his AARP car for this year.

AARP has had a new paint scheme in four of their five seasons.

There are 16 cars I didn't buy, and I probably should've bought 2 or 3 of those but just didn't for whatever reason.

One additional car, his Farmville car from 2012, was never released due to licensing issues.

Yeah but do you have a Jeff Gordon blanket?

That coffin is the dumbest god drat thing, and I intend to spend whatever mad money I come into on things I can dick around with when I'm alive.

Which won't include diecasts after this season.

Ya know, I wouldn't doubt it.

I hope whoever they pin it on gets nailed hard for this. loving with the tires (or other safety stuff) is a notch above stroker motors and fuel additives on the bullshit meter.
