if u not satisfied with the rusty McLaren, can always pm me =)

Alloys don't rust.  That's why they use them in the 1st. place.  I notice this is very common in Maisto - sometimes even in higher end models. A collectors nightmare.  That is why I am reluctant to collect 1/18s.  I only have one 1/18, the rest 1/24 & mostly 1/43s. The larger the model, the more distinct the bulges from underneath the paint.  Metal die cast models are made of alloy i.e usually a combination of metals such as zinc, aluminium, magnesium,copper etc. Get any impurities in this combination of metals & over time will result in blisters or bulges on the surface of the models. Only way to restore your model is to strip the paint to bare metal, grind away the bulges & repaint. But then, you will loose all the decals i.e the badges & logos on the model.  Too much work for something that might not meet your expectations in the end. Might as well sell it off if you can find a buyer. 
You said you have finally collected all your dream street version cars. Are they all 1/18s?  Quite challenging to collect 1/18s. I have close to 450 pcs. of mostly 1/43s & half of which are still in their boxes. And besides cars, I collect air crafts & tanks(1/72s) I have to one day stop buying & start concentrating on getting a few dust proof cabinets to display my models or else it is pointless to keep them without the ability to appreciate them. House is looking more like a die cast model shop. Anyone out there knows where to get reasonably priced wall mounted cabinets?
