Jasonist: finally u've shown ur entire collection. Is that ur entire collection? It seems to me like u have more than that.

Anyhow, just got this a few months ago.
minichamp continental gt
a huge disappointments for me though, my expectation for this model was high since it cost nearly twice as much as a typical aa.



problems i have with it is
- no side windows
- inaccurate; no pillar that separates the side window from the rear window.
- and worst of all, No base; styrofoam as base?

AssKicker : wow!...rare model u have there! can share few more detail shots?... wher can i get minichamps in kl? still havent got my 1st one yet.

bout ur disappointments... feel sorry for u bro.. ... below expectation or does every minichamps has the same features?

myke: I have no idea, I'm from penang... I expect more because of the price I paid (and I remember reading a review whereby the reviewer compares both minichamp and aa porsche carrera gt and gave the minichamp the thumbs up.)
This is my first mc so I don't know about other models. Was going to get the Arnage T later but after seeing this, decide to pass on it.
The only thing mc is better than aa is the under-carriage (even maisto beat aa in this category since it consist of only a flat piece of plastic). Kyosho does the best job when it comes to under-carriage. Wouldn't notice it unless u're gonna put a mirror under it ala pimping tom style.
Will take more pic once I'm free.

as a hard core diecast collector out there... we expect more for the price we paid... just like wat i've found in this comparison webpage http://www.diecastturk.com/forum/index.php...11586.msg142968
1/18 Ferrari Enzo BBR vs Hotwheels Elite

happy new year guys! & may the year 2008 will b more exciting for us!

guys im grab my TOMY at iSetan KLCC.. but my friend inform item is no more.. no balance of Honda or Skyline there.. abissss..

take note on places yaa.. TQ..

POISON pics

protect with the mint box.perhaps the humidity of the air to make the paint got popping bubble.
but for maisto right,i did saw alot of maisto model car got popping bubble.i suggest u better check it before u buy.
for minichamps,autoart,kyosho..i dun think will have such problem right??collectors....

happy new year 2 all the car fan !!!

hmm btw, juz polishing my masto car....still got 7 more to go....hope this way can protect the car.....

if any better suggestion plz tell me ya....

anyway while i polish the car....i noticed the following advantages of maisto compared to autoart....maybe kyosho and minichamps too...

maisto have:
-absobers (working one!!!)
-tyre with brand like michelin,goodyear.....(autoart limited to jgtc onli)
-bonet/boot can hold on but AA is loose big dissapoinment
-cheaper

hehe,most of my is american exotics as maisto doesnt produce japanese car last time....






earlier thought of getting AA gt but skip it due to money issues

hihi guys... happy new year! btw, i spot nice bentley there... been away for 2 weeks so many things happen here ah... hows ur christmas holiday and new year celebration? i was in singapore and KL for holidays and some diecast shopping as well... i can say singapore is a diecast heaven for diecast lovers for malaysians... the models are stunning yet amazing! too bad cant get many due to limited budget capability...

btw, for those who interested in M3... i spot 2 great versions of M3 in Kyosho times square... RM310!!! price is quite reasonable for a kyosho...

wah wat u grab from sing ????

well... i leave some teasers here... they are minichamps are autoart... for the autoart i can say this is the best and most affordable model i purchase... although it might not be popular in malaysia... but RM50 for a 1/18 scale autoart??? stay tuned!
