GTPlanet Scale model thread

Interesting occurence. Just a couple days ago, I purchased a Miura SV (brand new) by Kyosho in that green colour for $60cad

Look at what this auction just went for yesterday:

The guy who won it must've paid around $140cad.

LoL

A bit unimpressive?! That thing is a beast! Expensive too! You got a dam nice model there James.

Hehe, thanks!

I didn't know it was that expensive. I've not bothered to look at how expensive it was, as you don't when it's given to you as a present. I have the certificate of authentication for the cut of his overalls, too, but it wasn't in the picture as I had lost it behind my bed...

Yesterday i bought a #59 (yellow trim) Aston Martin DBR9 Le Mans race car for 25gbp and a Lancia Delta HF Rally Di Monte Carlo '92 for 30gbp. The Aston is Solido and the Delta is Ricko, they pale in comparison to the other models here though Next on my list is an AUTOart Nissan Skyline R32

I've heard the Kyosho is better. Hopefully someone here will be able to clarify better.

 

[F1GTR]

Yes, it has the correct headlight and body shape. The seats also fold forward and there's a spare wheel in the back too. The AutoArt has closed front windows, but the Kyosho is much better value as it is generally cheaper than the AA.

 

[MustangSVT]

Which car you guys talking about?

 

[SRV2LOW4ME]

AutoArt Skyline GT-R R32 vs. Kyosho Skyline GT-R R32

 

[JER_CREST]

I do not know about the Autoart BNR32 Model but the Kyosho BNR32 Red Metallic that I have is so detailed that the Vehicle Identification Plate under the hood (bonnet if your from the U.K.) has a replicated vid number.

Here it is

KINM KOIOP COL: IDJAPAN
NA E-BNR32
BNR BNR32-CO2545
CSR CSR58KF5CMZG
CSRMX DG G1
982DET1 2568
002ED FS5R55A RCA
10
8DOHCNXDCBN

That is what I found to be so detailed about the Kyosho BNR32.

So who here thinks i was wise to buy a Carousel 1 Corvette L-88 test car from ebay for (gulp) £113 (not including postage from germany)
It seems this car is rather rare and i love how it looks, its the only one ive seen on ebay and i wasnt prepared to let it slip, oh and at £113 it'll be the most expensive model in my collection

If you like it a lot, then for sure it's worth it. The most I've ever paid is about 80gbp for a Mazda 787B by Autoart. Really nice model

 

[MagpieRacer]

£19.99 is my most expensive, hot wheels Williams FW26!

If you like it, and you want it, then its worth it.

[Serge.D]

[Holdenhsvgtsr]

thanks

nah it was a local model store that done it for me,but the ones on the side should be up a little bit higher

 

[Serge.D]

then there's only one like that

 

[Holdenhsvgtsr]

then there's only one like that

what do you mean

 

[Serge.D]

the marlboro conversion of the holden

 

[Holdenhsvgtsr]

no you can buy decals for them,theres loads of toranas that have them if you look on ebay

 

[MustangSVT]

what do you mean

He means that your model is pretty unique in that it has Marlboro logos. I'm sure that other people with that model have probably applied them as well. It is indeed a nice model, though I'm not a big fan of australian cars.

thats it i like cars with marlboro

 

[Schrodes]

Most model shops here will supply tobacco sponsors decals with the car but the actual manufacturers are staying right away from them. They won't even advertise the decal manufacturers. Big fines if they do.

 

[Bram Turismo]

OMG:

http://cgi.ebay.com/Autoart-1-18-19...3QQihZ009QQcategoryZ45349QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Ever since I was a little kid, I wanted this car. Now, after 8 years, it finally shows up! 80 dollars my ass, I'm getting this one!

Does it get better?

Oh yea!

http://cgi.ebay.com/1-18-AUTOART-TO...1QQihZ018QQcategoryZ45349QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem


So much money but I guess that's the price you pay for such high quality and rare models...

 

[MagpieRacer]

That first one looks amazing.

 

[Bram Turismo]

That first one looks amazing.

Isn't the livery just beautiful?

Anyway, to get this thing, I'll have to beg my dad like hell for him to buy it, because I don't have Paypal so I cannot internationally. But I must and will buy this one!

 

[Sting]

Ultrashot, that £45 BIN on the second one, is a freakin bargain! £45 is usually what current models cost, so for a rare Toyota GT1 thats a great buy!

(heck if i had the money available I woulda gone for it at that price.)
Good luck with them

 

[Bram Turismo]

Yes but it's "GBP", it says "(Approximately US $87.49)", but that's on the "Buy now" opttion, I don't know how much bids will rise since there are 5 days left, and it's in used condition.I'm looking to another '99 model but if I don't find anything else, I'm placing my bid on this one.

I've also spotted a Supra, apparently, these models aren't made anymore or something. It's a "Kyoto special edition". Looks like a normal Supra though, in black, looks very detailed, everything opens up but the price is on 200 dollars which I reckon is too high...

And I've spotted a Maserati MC12 Race Car on 300 dollars! That's waaay too much money...
