very impressive collection you have there... (you do need a bigger room to house your collection nicely) e.g. build a glass custom cabinet to protect your expensive + install some great lighting to bring it out more....
Spikey, you set the collector benchmark.... spend BIG!!!



Jasonist, you can see the space that need to house the 1:18 scale car.... massive!!!... can't imagine how much space require to store 100 pcs of AA 1:24??

Just so share some tips on refurbishing your dc models.

1) Toothpaste can be used to remove minor scratches on the windshield, rear windshield and side windows. Apply a bit of toothpaste on to a polishing cloth and buff till toothpaste disappears, scratches shoud be gone or less visible, apply more toothpaste if scratches still visible and buff. Also works on getting rid of superglue on windshield (time consuming)

2) For silver cars which need touching up on paintwork, Tamiya Acryllic Paint X-11 Chrome Silver blends in almost perfectly with the original paintwork.

3) For Maisto McLaren SLR's doors which just cannot stay up, superglue is a friendly fix here. First, take the whole car apart, and apply superglue on the hinges located on the roof top of the shell. Keep opening and closing the doors to prevent the superglue from jamming up the doors. Eventually, the super glue will harden but not hard enough to stop your doors from opening or closing. The doors should work like new after this, just that they are a bit harder now and will stay up or down when required.

you are right!! need bigger room to house all my collection. so far already sacrifice my study and store room!!!! I dont intend to put lighting to focus on the diecast coz in long term it might bring harm to the paint(color will fade) when i move to my new house i will a room just for my collection (wifey will not agree to it kekeke) anyway thanks 4 ur suggestion. i understand u collect 1/43 mainly. do u have the latest R35 from ebbro?

Here is part 2 of my collection. keke

spikey ........ no ppl can fight d lo...hehe

AA RM300....lets say u got 100 cars..but sure more than that..

RM30,000 ??????????????

AHHHHHHHHHH......

Hmmm... "lighting to focus on the diecast coz in long term it might bring harm to the paint"........... it's true for sunlight and powerful sportlight.... install normal forescent bulb... will do.... anyway that's just a suggestion....


R35 from ebbro. Still waiting for my order "Ebbro SuperGT Xanavi Nismo GT-R 2008". They seller mention August release.. hope it's true.

hey guys, whats an average price of an Autoart 1/18 die cast car? is all autoart cars limited edition?

Wow Aurion u are seefu of DIY and modification!

spikey: lovely! have u ever counted how many diecasts u bought?

aurion: thanks man! i will try to do according to ur info... thanks again!

REALCollector: wahaha... if i have a room of 1/18 scale models, i would definitely go excited and proud of my collection lor... despite it eats space, i still like it! goodness, hope to see ur shots on ur DBR9 soon...

leroy87: not all aa are limited editions... but some are like the Shelby Mustangs, Veyrons etc... but for aa models, since the quality is good, it can carry great value in future times...

Lost count d! the last time i counted bout 1 year ago guess its bout 300+
