CAT MONSTER G86, Monster Garage, Vettes, Patina & Bats!

Is there anything better than KUSTOM CARS?? Here at the FTG, we think it’s akin to Chocolate… which is why Fireball busts out sketches like this all-new BAKE NEKO! In Japanese… that’s CAT MONSTER!! This new MASTERPRINT features a Custom TOYOTA JDM G86 with Fireball’s Feline Fury (Furry?) in an overall blanket of glistening Jade. Perfect for you AutoOffice, Diecast Garage or REAL Garage! It’s in the FIREBALL EBAY STORE, too!!

DID YOU KNOW?? The funky weird Japanese WAVING CAT have become associated with good luck and fortune. It is common to see Maneki Neko statues in both Western and Japanese businesses and homes as a token of wealth and prosperity. But in Japan, where there are special words for endless self-improvement (Kaizen) and “Death by Overwork” (karoshi), CATS, with their relaxed attitude and abundant napping, could well be the lifestyle models the nation needs, especially in times of distress or economic downturn.

Also in today’s Fireball Blast, a Vintage Snap of the Ball with buddy’s GENE WINFIELD & DARYL STARBIRD on the set of MONSTER GARAGE as they built The Flying Car! Plus, ACTION HEROES and Fireball admiring Robotness in Hollywood!

PLUS, a new CORVETTE SUMMER MASTERPRINT is coming this afternoon!

Today’s BEST OF SHOW is this sickass PATINA’D CHEVY SHOOTING BRAKE TRUCK! A tiny Suburban?? You decide!

NEW CHARLIE’S ANGELS, Celebs, 1.21 Gigawatts and SHOW SHOTS!

Last weekend, Fireball hit 7 Car Shows and you’re about to get the skinny, but first… a NEW CHARLIE’S ANGELS MASTERPRINT!! This time, Fireball busts out the 1977 FORD MUSTANG GHIA from the show! WATCH HIM DO IT HERE! Who was YOUR favorite Angel??

DID YOU KNOW?? The OG “Charlie’s Angels” ran on television from 1976 to 1981, starring Farrah Fawcett, and . They were later joined by Cheryl Ladd and Shelley Hack. But the original title of the series was “Alley Cats,” but Kate Jackson suggested “Charlie’s Angels” after seeing a picture of angels in Aaron Spelling’s office. Another title in consideration was “Harry’s Angels.”

Celebrity SNAPS! Fireball with Movie Monster Master STAN WINSTON while working on a new film together. Sadly, Stan passed away and the movie dissolved. Second up, Fireball and SCHWARZENEGGER at the LA Auto Show for the promotion of the film SON OF THE MASK. But the Governator was too big to fit into the car! Also, Fireball and JESSE JAMES on the set for MONSTER GARAGE. Fireball designed the Flying Car and Insane 54 for episode 86. And finally, at this year’s SOLDIER CON with Incredible Artist Heather Edwards and Senior Editor of Comicon, Brendan Allen!

Check out SNAPS from CONEJO VALLEY CARS & COFFEE below!!

You’ll believe that a Panoz Esperante CAN FLY…

Got a chance to work with JESSE JAMES on several episodes of MONSTER GARAGE way back when… and we made a car fly in 7 days, thanks to help from Flight Engineers. According to Jesse, it was the only car on the show that SCARED HIM. And I remember why… because in all our talks and designs over the week, the only thing we discussed was how to get the car in the air. But we NEVER talked about how to LAND it.

Jesse had a panic attack mid flight when the car lifted off the ground at Kitty Hawk Airport. Crashing was a very REAL and PRESENT fact. But as the car cruised about 8 feet of the ground, Jesse managed (with no flying lessons whatsoever!) to set it safely on the ground. Never to be flown again… Whew.

Sketch of the Day… Gilda and her TURBO BROOM!!

Some Witches know that in order to do a clean sweep across the planet and scare as many people as possible, they need a few modifications. Thus, Gilda here spent this last weekend modifying her flying broom with Ronco’s new TURBOMOD 1000. Needless to say, it’s running at 20psi now and is leaving bugs in her teeth! Whoosh!
