GTPlanet Scale model thread

[MustangSVT]

I paid about $50 (including shipping) for the F2003 Schumacher (1/18, Hot Wheels), and the F2004 I got as a gift for my birthday last year from my dad. The Mansell/Senna taxi cost quite a bit. I pre-ordered it back in April for $99cad and received it in early june.

Guys, check out this guy's auctions.

http://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...90043832454&rd=1&sspagename=STRK:MEWA:IT&rd=1

He has many rare 1/18 Minichamps F1 models, Schumacher Benetton models, I think some Senna models too. Unfortunately his shipping internationally airmail and insurance is 55 euro. But withing europe and germany, much much cheaper. So for those of you in europe (interested in some of those models), I suggest checking it out.

Anyway, on another note. Do any of you collect special showcase models? Like you know those special 1:43 and 1:18 models that have a background to them, like some certain Minichamps 1:43 F1 and Racing car models that are like a special model.

i have a couple but they are 1:72

 

[MustangSVT]

Very nice 2 showcases. Would like some myself.

You should be able to do that yourself, bondy. You have the first post, so you can just go back and edit it. I think...

 

[Alex.]

cant you do it?

Those models are really nice. What colour Carrera GT do you have? The Minichamps CGT is pretty rare nowadays (and expensive too). The GT3 RS is a nice model too. I really like the 1/43s as well, especially the last Schumacher one.

I know this thread is for 1/18's but i have a selection of 1?43 Minichamps F1 Cars too.

You're more than welcome to post your 1/43 models here.

 

[F1GTR]

The silver, dealer edition of the MC Carrera GT is really expesnsive.

Gottit, didnt see that option before when i tried.
Thanks

Fingers crossed I should be starting my own F1 1/18 collection this Christmas kicking off with a 2006 Williams, Mark Webber of course.

I'll keep you guys informed.

 

[MustangSVT]

Speaking of F1 models, can't wait for the following:

BAR F2006 Button 1st Win - 1/18 Minichamps
Ferrari F2006 Schumacher 66th Pole - 1/18 Hot Wheels
BMW Sauber Heidfeld 1st Podium - 1/18 Minichamps
BMW Sauber Villeneuve - 1/18 Minichamps
McLaren MP4/21 Raikkonen - 1/18 Minichamps
+ possibly Ferrari F2006 Schumacher "last race" Interlagos - 1/18 Hot Wheels (if they make one, fingers crossed)

Will have to choose between the Heidfeld and Villeneuve. I may just get the Villeneuve one and if possible get the Heidfeld later.

 

[Lee]

Yeah I'm looking out for the '06 Button replica too when it's released.

 

[Alex.]

Im off to MPH 06 today, there was a couple of model stalls last time, will probably be coming home with one today!

Thanks, i like the name of the thread now too, it is more inviting for collectors of 1/43 like myself.

My Minichamps CGT is not the dealer edition, it is the standard red one. I have taken some pictures, sorry about the poor quality

I hope these picture are not too big
You see how well packed the car is, much better than other companies
