Unofficial Shark Week April 26 to May 2.

"You've got to live every week like it's Shark Week, Miss Lemon." Spoken by Tracey Morgan's character on "NBC's 30 Rock"

I broke off the rear horn taking it out of the ebay box.

Chumming the waters for Shark Week.

Hi all,

not a Tyco, but a Shark! My Santa Fe A-B combo is from Model Power/Roco.



I really love this paint scheme on the Sharkies, in my eyes a very good match, even if the SF didn't have any Baldwin RF-16's.

Thanks for sharing your catches here. It's really neat to see this variety of RF16s on the same page.

SHARKS!
I have an aba set of Model Power sharks but they are still in the paint shop being prepped to be painted in Pennsy colors.
I've been putting of painting them until I find another B unit.

Well here are a few more hungry ones...



and there are more hanging around somewhere... Have a ABBA NY set but no pictures at this time...

...from the Fanged One




"Though amid all the smoking horror and diabolism of a sea-fight, SHARKS will be seen longingly gazing up to the ship's decks, like hungry dogs round a table where red meat is being carved, ready to bolt down every killed man that is tossed to them . . ." by Herman Melville

Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

Went to a show yesterday. I didn't see anyone with a Tyco Shark at any table or anyone carrying one. I would have bought burned up Sharks just so I could repaint the shells. I saw one C430 and bought it, and bought one of 2 Super 630s present. I still had fun fishing though.
