wkwebsite: Huayra from AA? Hmm...I think it'll cost more than the Zonda R...which in the first place shouldn't have cost that much as well!! lol.

chan: I also don't know much about bikes bro...I just buy bikes to match any 1/18 I have but I THINK it's R1. I think....lol.

sky: the Aperta is BBR bro.

well the quality is no different from the previous release. Personally, I think the model is excellent but with any models..be it Maisto, Autoart, MR, BBR or whatever, I can't never expect perfection. So as long as there's no MAJOR flaw...I'm okay with a model.

But what was wrong with your previous Italia?

kennt: well that one I think abit bad luck la. Lol. This one got no such problems...or even my yellow Italia. So I would say...get the 458...but don't expect perfection la...I suppose. Lol.

wkwebsite: hmmm...I would've picked either the GTR or ZR1 but certainly didn't expect the 458 to come 2nd.

derrick: you gonna quit the hobby bro? Sorry to hear that man. For me, the crazy prices have helped me, in a way, to focus my collection and not simply buy anything. Lol. I just choose and make sure the ones that I buy are the ones that I really want.

kennt: did you try to pm Hacken? I think he said he got the 458 Alonso for sale. Not sure if still available or not. Perhaps you can try.

Anyway, more oldie models to spam.

F430 Coupe





Citroen GT





Enzo

hacken: lol. Don't resist. Just let it happen. You'll feel much better. haha.

wkwebsite: you finally got your 430?

kennt: don't be afraid bro. That one I really believe is just an unlucky one. But ofcourse, I can also understand that buying all these expensive models without actually inspecting it is kinda....like lottery la.

all three frontiart myke posted is 1/18.

The MP4 is nice...but don't like this colour or the copper one. Waiting to see if they would produce a silver or dark grey version.

from what i've read from other forums, the quality is excellent...and the person who did the review only collects resin. So I would ASSUME it's definitely up there with MR and BBR.

nice bro. you got the spyder eh? what kind of white is it? lol.

aquila: nice garage man! it's super simple and yet, very effective!

aquila: there are alot of mechanic figurines out there. I think if you google like say...1/18 mechanics...im sure you can find something.

whether or not it's worth the difference in price is really subjective. Some people think it's not, some do.

For me, if you are the kind of person who just want to have a 458 to display on the shelf then the non-elite is probably the one for you but if you like to appreciate and admire extra details, such as better interior finishing, engine details, perforated mesh for vents, better paint and better engine details, then the elite is the one for u.

excellent beemers! those M3's are getting kinda rare nowadays....

lots of nice pictures!!!

Gotta love the arresting scene. Even when getting arrested, Stig is still in his signature pose. Lol.

I would love to have a stig in a driving position. Would be really cool to have him in the car.

Is it? I wonder what's wrong with the SV as I got both the white and yellow SV from him yday. It looks fine to me. But I agree with chan...the yellow is much, much more beautiful than the white. hehe.

bryant: like your plane picture! altho...wrong plane la for the reventon. hehe.

lkwanz: um...sadly...the vents still hopeless. Altho the yellow one(only one side) can stay up...but engine cover with pop up as well. and yea..got 3 now...wanted to get only two but I can't help it. lol. But definitely have to add the Orange and Turquoise as well. so.....

and nice GTO! Is that the one you have plans for?

lkwanz: wow! Vision Efficient Dynamics?? I thought these are really rare??

too bad I don't collect 1/43...if I did, I would definitely grab one!!

anyway, here are some pics I took yday of the SV's I got. Ofcourse, the first thing I did was to raise the vents on the yellow one but I don't intend to do it for the white one.

Bianco Canopus



Giallo Orion

bryant: thanks bro. lol. are you getting the yellow as well?

I can't believe my favourite right now is the yellow version eventho I don't like the small SV. Somehow it just looks sooo right in yellow.

Thanks!

The SV is the only non-Ferrari that I just don't mind having more than two colours. Lol. It is an amazing looking car.
