Jasonist bro,so cool laa those pics up until now i still dunno what brand that M3,kyosho?

I bought the pearl white one at Sogo for RM 152.91, with 10% discount. Parkson has 20% but chances of getting the GT-R may be slimmer I won't know when. But yeah.. felt the pinch of the price increase, when comparing to a Supperleggra

- Front wheel sags like it's set to negative camber.
- no suspension springs
- rear lights look pink and has a horizontal like running across it. (plan to fix this with a mod)
- bad wheel turning radius.
- No brake calipers ( could this be Nissan's permission issue??, but plan to fix this as well)

+ Paint job
+ Interior details. there's seatbelts in the rear, cabin roof has texture which is better than just bare metal, nice seat plastic which almost looks like soft leather.
+ very nice wheel turning motion and nice bonnet/boot/door opening feel.
+ Sculpt is pretty much spot on and accurate.
+ excellent front lights.

Jason: Nice tour! your M3 have taken us to many great landmarks in Melbourne in the passed few days... thank mate...!!! keep posting photos if have spare time...

jchue73: Aiyo! man... you really have turned yourself into model car freak! I know exactly how tempting this hobby is... sometime it takes me weeks to make up my mind just to buy one costly 1/43 model... I call it misery! you start thinking of it when you wake up... ... like you meet your soul mate...

Anyway, that BBR 599XX is very tempting indeed... I'm waiting for RedLine version... (that could probably my last model for 2009 (excluding those pre-booked BMW race cars frm UK ))... In my opinion Ferrari models are worth collecting.. these are rare items...

Ok! I'm still waiting for two packages frm Overseas... probably arrive in two weeks frm now... then I guarantee to flood this thread again in August... do visit this thread regularly for latest updates, fellow collectors...

Meanwhile let me share with you guys some of my early 1:64 collections:

after waited for a week,my new car finally arrived from SOUTH KOREA...will reveal soon after the photo session...

kabuto rider kick: thanks man! well, its indeed from Kyosho...

REALCollector: thanks for appreciating the shots and hope u enjoy them! still looking for more potential locations for future photoshoots... and no doubt u do have some great collection of japanese GT cars... the shots make the cars look like they are in some racing action!

hokuan: looking forward to the photos...

still... M3 at the Shrine of Remembrance continues...

Hi Guys,

Stay tune guys...there are more to come......
By the way you guys can guess too....

it's a WRC subaru of course....

Hehehehe....very simple tips.You are right!But which model?

version 10 or 9 lo....

mirage-rs:Yaahhhyoooo.....is version 10 hehehehe...will reveal later.

kekeke.... by looking at ur username, it's so predictable le....

mirage-rs:Brilliant.....of course i'm a very big fans of Scooby...;)So everyone here should know my signature well...hehehehe.....stay alert.

no time to do a proper photoshoot yet...so just took this....

wat is the market price for this item in Malaysia i wonder..

Jasonist: Wahlau... You very hebat ! Just the tip of the box and you already know what it is ! Will try and post some pics of the red Carrera GT. Trying to get the DE in silver colour but cannot find anywhere. Tried also to find a white but it's only made by Autoart which is slightly inferior to Minichamps for this model. All I can say that the weight of the car is worth the money. One of the heaviest models I have. Very solid metal all around. Just like the Minichamps BMW M3 E46 that I have.


REALCollector: I think we have to enrol in Diecast Anonymous already. Eh, what you said about 2009 Super GT cars earlier on is correct. EBBRO is slowly trickling in their 2009 lineup.


subaru22b: Congrats. The packaging looks very good and professional. If I think is what it is, it's a nice catch. Which one? 1 set, 2 set and the 3 set one?


hokuan: Congrats on the white beamer. Kyosho?


leroy87: No idea on local pricing of Elites. From what I can see, if it's anything like prices down south, the Elites will cost something like Autoart's which is like RM 400 range. The Super Elites? Wah, got a shock that they cost around early RM 1000++. Might as well get BBR / CMC if that's the case.

jchue:yes ...kyosho

nice bimmer been looking for DTM E30 M3 quite a while...

mirage-rs: Which E30 DTM you looking at?

subaru22b: attractive haul there... never see a suby diecast in a limited edition before... looking forward for the reveal!

hokuan: nice attempt on the outdoor shots! haha i was at first mistaken the 3 series from Welly... btw did u take of the plate?

jchue73: well, no doubt the quality is superb! i wonder does it include a roof too?


guess we are switching to the M fever now... continuation of the M3 outdoor shots, when the TIME is right, the LOCATION is right and the MOMENT is right, u get this result...

anyone oso can... but johnny cecotto is the most desired.... i wonder where to find them with a decent price....
