1/64 Model Collectors Thread

[redhed17]

Seeing the Lamborghini Countach pricked something in my memory, so I went and found the box with some of my diecast cars in, and took a few pics.Because I have some time on my hands atm.

Here is how the detail has changed for the Lamborghini Countach over what must be 30+ years. Does anyone know how old this is?

I had more Ford's, Ferrari's and Porsches than I remembered.

TLV collectors should have a good look at their collection. It might be upsetting to see...

I'm scared to!

Disappointing to hear, especially with the stuff like the Lanica. You'd think something like that only be an issue with older releases.

I've had a quick look at some of my TLVs. At first glance I didn't see anything since it's fairly subtle, but with a closer look, my Porsche 911S, VW Golf II and BMW 325i all have little spots at certain area. Pretty frustrating to be honest. The two Deltas I have seem fine for now though.

This Tomica Aston Martin Zagato is another essential order. Nice version of the 1:1 being displayed on the Aston website.

Damn.

What Tomica line is that. Premium? TLV? I've never noticed any paint issues but then again most of mine haven't been out of their boxes since I bought them.

Premium had it the worse. I've got another one from Tomica Event Model that is starting to have signs of paint chips.

Dont know about specific makes but my brand new greenlight 1/64 vanishing point dodge challenger had 2 chips that I had to touch in.
From box

Greenlight always has this issue so I always keep them inside the cards.

Hello fellow diehard diecast collectors. I thought I’d ‘chip’ in to this discussion. I’ve not seen any paint chips on my Tomica’s. However, a lot of my TLVs have paint rash. This is a known problem with TLV.

At first I thought it was just some of the older releases that had them. Some of my prized TLVs (Silhouettes) bought long after they were released have very bad paint rash. But during my packing a while back and looking at all of my cars, even newer releases have them. The Lancia Delta is one that comes to mind.

Yeah after seeing the chips in my Premium collection, I hurriedly open all my TLV collection. Fortunately they are all still safe (the F40 in particular so it was relieving to see).
Hot Kustoms has uploaded a video on how to remove those rash IIRC.

I have one too.

Strangely enough, the red one is the special color variant, deviating from the usual custom when producing regular Tomica Ferrari models.

Look what just arrived, hand made and all the way from Australia to join my mad max car on set.

Yes I'll definitely be unboxing them today and taking more pics, the detail is insane.

Too much downforce.
