Absolutely. This is some fresh vibes for sure. Also, I'm glad they chose this type of music video format.
Arevwe getting a Thunder Machine vehicle? I just watched the video with Thrasher and Wrench (I don't recall her complete name)...????

Yeah but gritty wasn't really the style of glam metal

Looking forward to the Classified Thunder Machine!!! The actual band is probably going to be megacringe but hey thanks for the laugh guys!
I'm sorry but I was not impressed with their version of "Cold Slither" I prefer the original which seemed more "rock n roll"
they all seem rather muted

Look up 1:12 drums on Etsy:
They come from overseas so it will take a month, but I was impressed by what I got.
Full kit. Not sure what the shells are made of but they have multiple colors and wood grains.
Metal bits are actual metal... so like cymbals and cymbal stands are actually metal, with moving parts as well.
The drum heads are laminated card stock.
And you can find them with different logos (or no logos) on the kick. I bought one with a Zildjian logo.
I expected the worst and got something great that you literally cannot find anywhere else (I dont even see the etsy drums on ebay, at least last time I checked)
I like what Hasbro did as well (I really do), but the Etsy drums look like model/miniatures while Hasbro's looks like a toy.
Edit: Why am I typing all this when I could just...

I hope we get another way to get a drum kit... that's the only reason I want this. The drums. I need to stop wasting time and start learning how to sculpt digitally and 3D print and paint accessories.
