Been wanting this one for a while...

I always have to ask about the grills....

Am I seeing "partly-solid" grills in the front?

It's entirely soild, that area was painted black to recreate how the 1:1 looks.

It still got more depth than the Top Speed version, I think.

Greenlight 1:43 1989 Nissan Skyline GT-R from Fast 7.


No doubt that the R32 is my favorite GT-R, but Greenlight could have chosen a better car to include in the line.

That car didn't even move an inch in the movie. It's no more than just a decor in the funeral scene...

I'm just glad they put a tastefully modified R32 in the lineup. I could appreciate the 2 Fast 2 Furious R34, but I much preferred the R34 from the fourth film.


My BJ'S Wholesale membership was running out. Figured I'd check the Maisto lineup before it expired. Picked up the 1/18 GT3 RS 4.0 and 996 Targa.

If any of you ever wondered what a damaged resin looks like.....

Yep. Breaks just like those resin figurines you and/or your parents have.

The good news is that this isn't mine! I would never spend any money on a base Mclaren.

A known seller received this when a buyer of his got the wrong coloured car, but didn't care to use any cushioning when returning it. It has been a sad day for this dude (because guess what brand that is).
 
I'm still gonna get the white DC2, since it will go nicely with my white AA S2000 and the white AA NSX-R I plan on getting soon. Also I ordered another Spark, even though I really shouldn't be ordering more models seeing as I have to move at the end of the month...

Think of it this way: they'll arrived already packed for the move!
 
My newest model: Autocult 1:43 1959 Porsche 754 T7 "Butzi" prototype, 305 of 333 pieces. This is a four-seat prototype that Porsche toyed with for a while. They finally rejected making four-seaters, but you can see Butzi Porsche's ideas for the 911 already taking shape.






 
No new pics, but I will say this about the Focus RS after looking at it good after taking that pic... It is is REALLY good, on par with some of my $200 resins. Perforated grills, rather fine details, great paint... It is better than I expected it to be. Looks every bit as good as my two Ignition's.

Also, the Spark Viper GTS-R I got a couple weeks ago has perforated grills all over it, well except for the two large side vents. Might do a mini review of my most recent models...

Oh, and I have those same two 1/43 McLarens, though my Minichamps one is yellow lol.

Oh. Snap....

Otto Focus vs Otto E46 M3 though?

2002 Impreza by Top Marques


That 1998 Impreza prototype I shared earlier had some major proportion mistakes. The entire roof was squashed down making the side windows shorter.
