Hey..got this reply from Wing Jet on Frontiart Model.

Hello Lee,

You're welcome! I know Frontiart, but we have not sell this brand, because it is from Chinese and some of their models are no license. so it is illegal.

Sorry about that I cannot help you. But if you want to have any models, please free feel to contact me

Thank you!

Michael

geeamino also mentioned before on FrontiArt's Mclaren official licensed.. how true is it?

how could that be..?

yeah man, i think SV just testing by them on collectors & the SV still selling well as most collectors also collect more than 1 color.

it is bullshit on their excuse. somemore their quality control also not that good considering the point. i really hope kyosho can get more license from different brand, so that i can just stick with kyosho.

even the box also, kyosho 1 look more secure, & AA only provide that kind of box on their signature line.

after LP570-4 & LP700-4(if they got release), i will definitely stop buying from them as their attitude also sucks. unless in future lambos got release any nice new models that i like.

hi im still nubis, hope fully u all can guide me... im more into r32 and just get me r33 recently, and 1 ae paklok...

Aiyah... You tipu us. That pics you posted are Autoart's pics indeed, right? I think a lot of people here think it's yours.

Your camera D700 but you use a DX lens 17-55mm f/2.8?

Anyway, the Mclaren was USD 300 if I'm not wrong. The UT Mclarens can be found on Ebay but they are not cheap. Some more, they are easily damaged due to shipping because of the fragile doors.

Skip that lah. Minor cosmetic changes but blady expensive. For less money, you can be better off with Android phones.

haha...i'm android user too...wat i like iphone is the games...but android nicer...dun bash me k..iphone user

what the??? Frontiart Mclaren is not licensed!?? Den its website should be closed down liao lor.. I dont think so its not licensed gua..

It's really nothing new, interms of not having license. I'm sure Versus or APM are not licensed to do Hamann or Novitec models as well. The P4/5 from APM is also not "official" but yet, it's still extremely valuable.

It wouldn't really bother me if I currently have the Frontiart MP4-12C.

myke: The lighting set up for this photo is very simple, just need to try many different angle and different camera setting in order to get the same photo effect like AA Webpage photo. The below photo i shoot on 9/11/2011. Do it look alike urs too? Haha...i dont mean to offend too bro.




Both photo use the same setting, F22, 1 sec, ISO160 at 45mm focus lenght. This is my very 1st time shooting diecast. Oppps....typo on teh camera model....i am using D7000 but not D700, sorry for confusing all lao ban here.

Lkwanz90: Brother, honestly...still far away from AA photo la....

hacken: If that is really pirate, how come they can sell it officially? By the way, the resin quality still worth that price right?

jchue73: Paiseh la , i where got D700? Should be D7000, typo error....and i am using Tamron 17-50F2.8 not 17-55f2.8. 1:12 only USD300???mean cheaper than BBR resin loh!! I found one seller from HK(ebay) selling at usd220 with postage USD15, it is cheap? Worth to buy?

Frontiart Models are all liscensed. They are actually the same owner and factory as Fline/Lucky model that used to produce models without official liscenses. But they have stopped this line and started a new brand called Frontiart Models with all models with official liscenses.

myke, lao da statement make u feel comfortable a bit? Haha.....

one last shot of my favourite die-castXP

blu3hamm3r: Nice photo dude~

OR2NG7: I'm sure at this price and size it surely do... especially with this bull

Hard to see masterlaoda here. he is the real "lao pan" ~

I was very excited when I received my Volcano Red MP4-12C in the mail yesterday. Took it out just now and my breath was taken away by the paint work. Bravo.



The box is not too bad and nicely made and packed.

Then to my horror, I saw the left rear wheel a little kemek !



Upon further inspection, the right rear wheel was also a little dented. Not as bad as the left rear wheel though.



When I looked at the bottom plate, the corner looked very rough and I thought it looked like it was badly burnt.



I guess this one has to go back. My bubble really burst this morning. One of the models I was really looking forward to receiving.

p/s: Sorry for the not so good pics. Was testing camera.

Bluehammer: to me, very good ard...
Jchue: but now at least u know the paint is nice

Actually, I always knew the paint would be nice after looking at the photos.

PR2NG7: Omg!! My dream bulls!!!! Walao aaa brother u ah.......y ur photo alwes so little? Seriously requested!! More photo pls!!!

Blu3hamm3r: really no offend bro, your photo skill & camera setup definitely better than me. thanks goodness laoda make some clarification. Now thats really cheer me up. :

Jchue73: your volcano paint is even better than mine! Abit regret didn't choose this I feel your pain too. Is't melted during transit? Gosh resin model is prompt to melt easily. I'm sure the seller will exchange for you.
