AssKicker: oh man where did u get the ford gt test car??? i can say is tat this is one of the most expensive diecast displays ever!!! nice nice fords!!!

yea its been quite a time this thread is 'dead'... wonder where our frens have gone... thanks for reviving the thread again!

me too... start saving money... sorry i would like to remain anonymous regarding my age and occupation... komenasai!

izit the assembly version de???

guys i happen to find this in aa website... it seems to be featured in some hollywood films but i have no idea wat movie car is this... and yes, its from aa!!! even a dog figure is included! heres the description obtained - MAD MAX THE ROAD WARRIOR INTERCEPTOR

aiksss! u mean the models are 60th anniversary version??? and they cost a whopping RM260 each??? wow!

welcome to the thread! ur a big fan of f1 too? btw, its nice to see ur collection here... collecting diecast is nice as long as u have to the passion on it... slowly u can see ur collection grow larger and larger and u will feel satisfied... bearbear says it rite, nowadays aa models are more expensive especially the newly released... the bad news is tat u cant expect those new ones cost below RM260 anymore... maybe the cost to produce these models has increased...

btw, i kinda worry the price of new f1 models would be increased as well... and i have no idea either we will get 2007 f1 models this year onot since mattel itself has lots of issues regarding the safety of their products, which hotwheels is affected as well...

haha the price !!! btw, izit matt black or normal red or yellow de ah?

wow... i find this rx-8 interesting!!! should be self modified i think... and its suppose to be an aa!

its been quite a time i have no new models acquired and photos being posted here... anyway, heres my new acquisition... seems like my western/exotic collection start to grow and get serious... have been searching for this model for months and it comes to reality... finally! my favourite western/exotic collection so far, and its my first ever Kyosho collection... the 1/18 BMW M5 from Kyosho... moreover, its my favourite Interlagos Blue for the M5!



the word "M" distinguishes the difference from the other 5-series models... and sometimes miracles do happen! more photos after the jump...

yup, underground de... i was browsing through the shop and suddenly i spot something unusual displaying on the cabinet... i was shocked at tat time too... so decide to go for it... i can say it is a miracle! if not wrong, there are 2 BMWs available, a white 3 series and a dark blue X5... others still remain the same...

haha... not much models to purchase recently le... better save up for other models in the future le... for this M5, its juz a sudden occasion nia... so the wallet resting continues...

quiet thread... any new discovery? new models found... in the web??? in the market??? anyone hear sunstar models? ever see this brand sold in ur market?

yup... they are more in classical cars... but oso produce some modern rally cars, the most popular among them should be the impreza 2006 WRC... quality wise is not bad as they include window glasses as well...


this is one nice model of sunstar and compared to aa on the right... still, the quality differs a bit especially on the headlights... aa's headlights are much better... pics courtesy of grand prix legends...

i saw one sold here for more than RM260...

yea... i agree u with this... the porsche carrera i purchase is one good example... the quality is considered acceptable... they even use special metallic paint for the model, the interior oso has a real leather feeling... the most disappointed part which maisto often has is the headlights, however they did a good job on the headlights on the porsche...




the only poor parts of this carrera gt are the fake looking disc brake with poorly painted calipers and the gear knob is too big and omos reach the rear view mirror...

welcome... high quality models no doubt are autoart, kyosho, hotworks as the main players in diecasts... CMC, BBR, Minichamps are oso high in quality too... but the availability in Malaysia here can be considered rare...

maisto, jada toys are not belong to high quality, but they are affordable for diecast fans... so higher price for higher quality models and vice versa...

if u have time, try to browse through the pages of this thread, u will find more important info that ur looking for...

i agree with u with the comparison with jada toys and maisto... jada toys does have smoother surface on the exterior. and their camaro is stunning! i think the downfall of jada toys oso lies on the scale size... try compare with a 1/18 scale of jada toys car model with any aa, maisto, hotworks and kyosho models, u will find y would the scale of the jada toys cars are so huge ... the best example is to compare their initial d model car (scale 1/24) such as the AE86 with Hotworks AE86... i think hotworks one is a proper standard scale size while jada toys is much larger...

cool merc... clean, sleek and stylish! recently bought a new cabinet as my old one is run out of space... so bought a larger one and modify with some more levels...

talking bout aa price, shipping is one reason tat causes the model increase... so from now on, whenever aa releases new models, the price will boost from RM300 above... no more RM260 le, unless previous releases de lor...

bout removing the wheels ah... gotta be careful coz may affect the disc brake and suspension bars lor... coz those are very detail in aa models when u see their underneath...
