Tom turkey.

Because it looks like you've had more practice and it's a really cool idea, lots of neat little details.

Again, the turkey. The others are impressive, but it just looks a little bit less like a cake.

As they say, practice makes perfect. The Turkey.

The firetruck, it looks very detailed and is just cool.

Though the turkey looks the yummiest. :D

I like the Guggenheim. I'm not sure why, since the Turkey is clearly better executed, but I just dig the museum.

Perhaps because it looks very much like the building or you know how hard it is to balance a tiered cake upside down?

I'm voting for Ladder 33

it just brings out a nice sense of childhood wonder, to my grown up mind...

I just love the ImpStar-Deuce.

I'm going to say it's because it does look like the building, and because it did look very hard to balance it. Technical points! :D

Gobble gobble. It seems to have the best "polish". All of them are outstanding though.

If I ever make another ImpStar what should I call that one?

I voted for the Ladder 33 fire engine, I like the detail on it and the look of the thing. I think the Falcon looks pretty good too.

You do know how big that would be right? You do know how much cake that would take?

the ImpStar is 13 inches long that would make the Executor 145.29 inches long if to scale.

I voted for Tom Turkey. It looks like that one was the hardest one to make and the results of that labor were fantastic.

You realize that would be enough cake to feed at least 100 people. with my oven, only big enough to bake one at a time I would be baking for 4 days non stop to get the cake needed to just to get started then I would need 30 pounds of frosting at least just to cover it.

Your proposal is Guinness worthy material.

I have yet to see a problem. :wink: Think of the Star Wars immortality. "Isolder74 bakes most fear inducing cake ever. Rebellions are scurrying to hide. Fat guy in Oakland VERY happy. News at 11."
