I only pre-ordered the Singer and Nismo R35 myself. Though about the Carrera RSR and 993 GT2 LM also, but decided against it. Gonna wait for the AA G63 6x6 most likely.

Had another look at the 993 today, and now I'm against grabbing one too. It doesn't look as cool as that black 964 from before, and even I turned that one down.

I am going to commit to selling a few cars now.
 
Lol... Selling models... Something I never plan on doing haha

I probably will eventually get both the 993 and 964 LM racers, just not at the moment as they are lower priority. My next racer is most likely going to be a modern race car, unless I get that Renown liveried Spark Mazda MR-X01 Group C...

Wheel/tire sizing is so nice. Needs Watanabe's instead of Work's though.

Well, give that a few months after release. IG loves releasing models with different wheels. You might just get what you want.


Anyway, I wanted to make a shoutouts to @Dac_Xint for his HK forwarding services.

Being the Asian I am, this livery is a particular favourite.

China Eastern 737-700 in 1:400 scale by Dragon Wings. Seller was based in Frankston about an hour away from my place and only paid $20, which is an absolute steel considering that these are about $35 - $40 retail.
 
Honestly thinking of cutting back the majority of my 1/64 collection and focusing on larger stuff. Mainly 1/43, because they have so many that I want.... Like this Crown wagon. :crazy: Thinking I'm going Toyota crazy again.

1/43 was the reason I quit 1/64s, basically. Variety and quality improves tenfold, in my opinion.

And then from 1/43 to 1/18, quality of wheels and surface separation lines alone improves two-thousandfold, in my opinion.

Yes it is also the reason why I quit 1/64s, basically. :lol:

It is also why I just committed to grabbing a second Fairlady S30 two moments ago.

1/18s never really were all that interesting to me to own personally. They take up a lot of space and cost a huge wack of money - something importing nullifies the gains in as I live so far away from everything.

Pfft, 1/18's don't take up THAT much room :sly:
I mean, I only have like 190 of them in my apartment after all...

Ive been collecting since I was 12 and only recently had the chance to display them. Point being displaying 90 of them took half of the garage, so I can only imagine what another 100 on top of that would look like! If i can figure out how to post pictures from iPhone then I will. Recently bought an Alesi '96 Bennetton to go with the Schumacher '95 and Alesi '97.

Is that a five door ST? I would love one, but Ford UK only sell the 3-door. I'll probably begrudgingly get the Focus ST instead, but I don't think it looks as good.

Yeah, it's a 5-door ST, we don't get the 3-door here in the US (which is fine by me, I like the 2 extra doors). The Focus ST is a great car too (more powerful, bigger if you need the space), it was my first choice, but a test drive of each revealed just how fun the Fiesta was instead. It's a blast!
 
Good news!

*A little note was left in the accompanying magazine saying they're not producing them in the foreseeable future, but offered me the option to give them my details just in case they restart the series. I'm not holding out much hope, though 👎​

There are TV ads for the collection showing right now, so they are restarting the series!
