Just got back from the gathering. Thx Bluehammer for organizing it and also it's been nice to meet the other diecast collectors. Pics I will post later but too bad I did not get to take group photo due to the park warden

aquila: quickly get some pics up bro! Eventho I couldn't make it, I'm still really excited to see the gathering. Must've been a really fun day.

leong: Congrats on the purchase man! I think the Gallardo is definitely one of the best Maisto's ever. Do get some pics up bro.

As for is Maisto/bburago worth it, well it really depends on which model. Is the SLR Mclaren and Gallardo's worth it? Oh yes! Is the BMW M5 worth it? No, because it's rubbish. So it applies for all brands. Not all AA are worth the price neither are all Maisto not worth it.

something different...

leongkokloon: u must use anti-biotic in this thread...else easily kena infected..

try midvalley jusco, got a few orange & white 1/18 bburago aventador there

You want Aventador? Try Amcorp. Uncle Chia's stall (stall with many diecast) should have one left.

reporting in late, here's my contributions 

lengkokloon: Wow!    Very nice photo u have there. I like the 1st photo very much with the wording. Great job!!!

leongkokloon: Sorry for overlook on ur post. Haha....this few day everyone is fever with the gathering story... Welcome to the group. Look like u r another Lambor fan too. Btw, Maisto got Diablo SV? Can share the link where u see? I only know got white and black but never heard got red. 

No offen, i like the 1st photo bcos of the lighting effert. Other photo is just simple and clean . WB a bit cold, deep of field not enuf,cant see the model detail, short of close up photo. Jus my 2 cent . Keep it up! 

No need macro lens my fren. Wat u need is just a medium zoom lens, like ur D90 kit lens. 18-105 is more than enough. In order to get enough deep of field, set ur cam on the tripod and using above 16 F Stop. When u get enuf DOF, u can crop the picture in which ever way u like. Try it out. I am new in model car photography too, let's learn together. 

blu3hamm3r: natural lighting also so bring already. Very nice! Haha, tips from me ar? I just use really standard 350D with my simple "Ikea" lightbox. Lol. Really very simple. I think lkwanz, sky, wkwebsite, myke and your picture much better!

Can meet up in wkwebsite punya house ar? Lol. Can check out his Aventadors 

And also, got any of your(or anyone else's) models "suffer" from that gathering? Hopefully all of them made it home safely since I think you brought the most model.

leong: You found the white Aventador from where? I've actually never seen the white Aventador. Only grey, black and orange.

  ookay but i tripod pun tak ada... that shoot of lambo is hanheld + table
