WaaaaAAAAA All spam soo many photos.. i shall just post one pic..

Lowyat too many rich laopans alrd.. Me small fry only get HW elite one.. Hehe!

Haha true true..that's why i've never discriminate brands too..

Although HW elite quality not as good as others, but i still stick to it as i'm more of a ferrari fan.. close to 60% of my cars all HWelite..




















Final Showdown!

the scuderia by HW elite is actually very well done given with the price tag that time. It's fetching crazy prices now on eBay.. *Shudders!*

But when it comes to the super elite, totally not worth the $$..

true that BBR makes better quality, but when u compare like to like, it shld be placed along with the super elite version, not the elite..

And that said, certainly the BBR wins Hands down! But i thot the BBR F430 was a coupe, albeit in Scuderia red?

Sauron Boss: Too late my extra pc of Scud just sold last week.. hehe!

Hacken Boss: waaa when was the last time? RM350 IMHO Good price le considering the market condition now..Hmm too sad closed down liao

Wooow 3-4 yrs ago, at rm350 its still okay..

back then, if i'm not wrong when the first series of the HW elite was released in Singapore they were marked at a retail price of SGD89.90 (around rm210++).. Amongst those were the F430 spider and the famous 288 GTO..

One fine example of the 288 GTO was sold for USD280++ 2-3 mths ago... 0.0

Yahh!! Esp those by MR or BBR one.. sooo limited, makes u wonder sometime u shld use that money to eat or buy the model..

WooOOW That's suuuper long man i must say! i doubt there'll be ppl who are willing to wait so long..? is there other brands like Kyosho or AA making?

Like Resin?? Wow.. interesting..

Ohh interesting.. havent see b4 1/43 DC with opening parts b4..

Wow.. the Red SV certainly looks super tempting..!!

Lkwanz: Cool! if 1/43 can open then it's really darn small and cute!!

i use those styrofoam bits which oversea sellers used to pack for models. Free + can color it with tamiya paint too

Pic of the Day: The true colors of a Challenge!!






And it's for sale! Rm299.90 for the decal #14 and RM329.90 for the plain.







On the other hand, a personal thanks to Big boss BLUEHAMMER who offered to pick me up in k.l IF i can make it on sat's photoshoot. I also told him as a singaporean (if some of u guys still havent know!) i'm really impress by the potential turnout of the msia's lyn DC event. WaYYYY to go guys!!

Curious as to why getting a blue Challenge stradale. IMHO not very attractive at all. perhaps to pair up with ur GT3 that's it?

Waaa Bro.. IMHO the yellow looks even nicer than red on a 458 italia.. hot wheels regular makes them in matt black too..


By the way, many people always assume that the 458 italia, produced in 15,000pcs, had 5,000pcs for each of the 3 color namely red, yellow and black.

It's not true. If you notice the 458 italia RED color one states 15,000 pcs, BUT the yellow and black one states only 10,000pcs..

so in total, 15K + 10K + 10K = 35k pieces for red, yellow and black.. plus another 5,000 for the pearl white that makes it 40,000pcs for the 458 italia series..



and here is a pic of my fav 458 italia in yellow.. stock silver rims are wayyy too boring, so i got a set of gun metal rims and yellow caliper for it

thanks guys for the comment.. yes kent, the wheels are from the 458 pearl white one.. Coz the original Alonso 458 rims is silver, HWE made the pearl white one gunmetal rims i believe to increase sales coz everyone like it in that color.

Hmm quite right, the pearl white one is certainly the most limited in quantity version, so i suggest to everyone now still can get, better get..

And yes Gee, Yellow looks the best.. first time i actually like a yellow ferrari more than in red..

Gee: yeah not all ferrari looks nice in red too.. IMHO i like classic ferraris in white color, makes them feel pure and maintains the style and elegance in it..

kent: diff ppl have diff taste and preference bah.. but glad to know we all share same yellow sentiments.. haha.. Anyway u can remove the chasis from the car body and use a small rubber to slowly erase the wording.. if that wont work, use small amount of nail polish remover that will work.. but rmb small amount will do..

Wont mess lah bro haha the 458 italia IMHO is one of the easiest ferrari i manage to disassemble.. 6 screws below, once opened the body will be easily taken off from the chasis..

always wanted to attend but hard to confirm whether going anot as it's at K.L.. if JB still ok.. haha..
