the difference in those 2 arnie pics is that one is lit from above and one is lit from below. Below always looks odd.

Maybe try that and paint over the yellow? but, meh..just give it a few months and one will pop up on Ebay.I did see one a few weeks ago for like $30 New Brite, i think it was a red fatboy.
Or you could try this V-Rod with working lights, i know its not a Fat Boy and not sure if its 1/6th..looks it.Still would look cool.

Don't forget to check Battery Plus, they have lots of R/C toys.
Oh I just bid for a new New Bright Harley Davidson Fat Boy and made my offer at $60+shipping (originally $50 but rejected) and the seller accepted. But in the meantime I found a very similar Tamiya model for $130 and decided to go that route instead so if anyone is still looking it's still available so you can try your luck.
OK here is what I picked up for .... too much .. but it's local so I guess C$130 is good enough It's not exactly the same but I guess it will have to do until HT releases their version
it's also on evilbay
Darn comparing it closer the Fat Boy is Fatter!
Nice models! too bad at the prices these go for online might as well wait for HT to release one
But as I stated earlier regarding the Tamiya Harley Davidson-kits, they do look far more realistic than the plasticy New Bright RC's.
Then you might have to wait indefinitely because what I've heard Harley is very selective with their Licenses, for example the Tamiya Fat boy was only released in Asia due to license problems.
The culprit:
Likes T3 but not this figure. That says it all.
Ban the mother ____er!
I found a guy in sweden that will assembel
and paint the Tamiya harley for
700 dollars. All together a bit over
10000 dollars. Thats alot of money!
But do you guys really think we will
se a replica with this level of
detail?
With 10000USD you would be very near to buying a real unused Harley. So, I imagine that you must mean a 1000 dollars, and with that I guess you could also buy some old carcass of a real Harley? So that's just a ridiculous . Grazy price.I found a guy in sweden that will assembel

Cant imagine that this kit would be so hard to build that it would be worth 700USD??? I wouldn't even consider that for a second. Even if I were made of money. I can imagine some enthusiasts taking their models very seriously, but still...
If there ever is a Hot Toys H-D FatBoy I couln't imagine it ever costing more than for example the Bat-pod, which was sold at 240–300USD (depending of the seller)...
With 700 dollars I imagine you would be very intrested of building the kit yourself and enjoying the feelings of accomplishment when it's done and then go laugh at the other dude's face.
