blu3hamm3r: Nice! It does look like AA. Lol.

For Lambo, Welly and Norev does good modern Lambo as well. The LP640, LP670, LP560, LP560 Spyder, Gallardo SE and Gallardo Spyder. So AA isn't the only one out there.

geeamino: I saw the Welly Lambor before, the finishing really suck! doh.gif The paint thick but uneven. Might try to get 1 Norev Lambor and see how the build up. Thanks for the infor bro. rclxms.gif

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.... doh.gif

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. doh.gif 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?

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.

geeamino: Urs MP4 ixxit Volcano color??? I heard that the official color is like this user posted image

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.

Hey all laoban, wonder what is ur 1st touch with diecast,mind to share ur story here? What is the 1st diecast model that u brought? Who poison u into this hobby or what thing make u start collecting diecast? That must be very interesting. ^^ Let me start my story 1st. My story is like tat....my Thai office sales girl one day msn me, ask me help her to buy a toy in M'sia, she claim that in Thailand no stock, the toy she ask me to buy is HOT TOYS IRON MAN Mrk5. I surf LYN very frequent but only at photography section. While i trying to search for the HOTTOYS is this section, i accidently saw Sky707 WTS thread.

This photo user posted image make me fall in love with this hobby. I brought my very 1st diecast "Lamborghini Reventon black with him on 7 of Oct. From that day on, i start fall into this hole deeply. I start searching around all the related thread, search for place tat selling diecast, grab all my dream car one by one.....non stop.... T_T......spending hundred and hundred to brought a pc of iron. I still remember early of this year, i went to Sunway piramid shopping and passby a toy shop. The toys shop did display some diecast which is Kyosho brand Aston martin, BMW M6....etc, at the moment i saw the price tag there it was really make me shocked! "Wth? RM400+ for just a small car? Wonder which crazy guy will buy?" And now.....i become the crazy guy......How about u guy? Mind to share ur story?

Btw, this is part of my collection since 7 Oct 2011.

My story is, after i moved into a new house, n my cabinet is empty. I wan to filling it up with something....ermmm...not this version.

ok, seriously, my story is because of ebay. My friends is collecting transformers. He teach me how to shop in ebay. Then i started to hunt some toys.....My first toy is disney wall-e robot which is out of production, n i got it from ebay around USD200++...

okok...straight to the point. my friend collect transformers as a hobby and i wanna collect something else. So i picked diecast as my hobby. My first car was either Mclaren F1 or Reventon or Gallardo, hardly 2 remember which 1 is first. I did do some research about diecast, which brand is better and after i saw this thread. I kena poison....deeply. Then i keep expand my collection.

I hunt most of my cars from ebay, Nissan GTR, Citroen GT, Lamborghini Murcielago. and Then i purchased Bugatti Veyron, Koenigsegg from replicarz within two months. And then Audi R8 and M3....bla bla bla... then my last car into the collection was the CMC Mclaren Slr (broken ver)......coz now i m more interested in something is Rare and limited. Somehow i m also collecting Hot toys and PVC figure.

bryant: Coz GTR Mac seem's more...desirable than LP640. hehe.

marcus: Love the TDF!! Wasn't planning on adding the TDF, but after seeing pictures of it, I pre-ordered it straight away along with the red.

blu3hamm3r: Wah. 2 months already haul so many!! I'm sure next year is gonna be a very busy(and expensive) year for you!  thumbup.gif

I've always liked cars since I was young but I was never "crazy" about cars until about few years back. I don't really remember anything triggering my excitement for cars. It sorta just grew overtime and therefore I started out building 1/24 Tamiya kits and then a couple of years ago, I saw a Bburago Reventon at Jusco. At that time, I wasn't working yet so I couldn't get it and that, basically, kick started my interest in diecast. Few months later, I bought the Maisto SLR and R8 and then the next day I went back and bought the Maisto Carrera GT. The rest is history. Lol

But then, I still remember the first time I got my first "High End" diecast. It was the AA Veyron(along with the Elite California, E93 M3 and Merc CL63) and it just blew me away. It was so much better than the Maisto's I had at that time. I use to purchase about two models every week but now, I've slowed down alot. Maybe sometimes 1-2 a month depending on how much they cost.

thumbup.gif thumbup.gif AA latest news update really break my heart!! Lot of AA fan wrote a complaint on their AA FB wall, hopefully they wont increase so fast. At leaast after i collect all LP-640,670 and other bulls..... >.<

Got this idea from blu3hamm3r when he posted his haul over 2 months.

So I also decided to compile what I've bought this year. I think I manage to get most of them in. Only missing the SLS Coupe, F430 GT and Maisto SLR.

Another reminder that I probably spent too much already!!  cry.gif
