Stuff I want, will you buy it for me?

I know you just wondering what to buy me for Christmas and you want to get started now in May. So here goes. Top of my list is a 1:10 scale rc drifter. Just check out the video above and buy me any of those cars. A friend recommends something from either Tamiya or Yokomo, two Japanese companies. Japanese stuff is cool, but I'd rather buy American. So look at HPI, Associated and Losi first. Do some comparisons and get me the best car, because I still don't know which to go with. They're kind of expensive, like a couple of hundred dollars. My ebay watchlist is full of stuff that I can't afford at the moment. So if you could buy an rc drift car for me, that would be great.

Climbing next onto your shopping list, of course, the Mini Monster truck (imagine a background Metallica track and a small truck crushing other small toys). The Kyosho MiniZ Monster Truck (1:28 scale) demands a high price of $150, but you have other stuff to buy me as well, so, as an alternative, I'm really keen on the Mini Mauler Monster Truck by HobbyZone. It's actually larger at 1:20 scale and cheaper at a mere $69 dollars. You can afford that, for me. Come on, that's less than half the price of the MiniZ Monster Truck. I would forgive you.

Now, for the art lovers, I know you must appreciate comic book art. So the final items, for this particular wish list, are some prints from Kristian Donaldson, one of my favorite artists. I prefer the Supermarket series. The cover issue one is pictured here, but my fav cover is actually issue two. Thanks!
