The stratos is by (listening holden?
)
KYOSHO
not
sunstar but
KYOSHO
(get that holden? )
I paid £25 at a 50% price along with a gallardo polizei. (visible in second picture)
Holden seems to think it is by sunstarm although he posted a pic of an identical stratos above. This one has working tail and head lights, the outer ones flip up and down and also turn on. it has many delicate and un-glued / attacthed parts such as the arial / headlight cover, the exhaust is a big of a bugger because it's quite fragile.
great model with fantastic detail 8/10

This is more aimed at any of you who have knowledge of pretty large collections, but I'm interested in getting some display furniture for my cars. I have plenty of room on one side of my "model" room, and am looking for something long, short, and/or possibly with a case with lights in it.
I'm asking since a lot of you seem to have large collections. It doesn't necessarily need a case, but I'd like something that's long in length and comes up to my waist.
Thanks fellas. Tried googling, but all I get are china plate displays.

Well, over my birthday I raked up an Autoart Mercedes CLK-LM (Labeled as CLK-GTR ala GT4) Special Ludwig edition, Autoart Aston Martin Sebring DBR9 #57 and a Classic Carlectables Bathurst Perkins Racing VZ Commodore. I shall get pictures as soon as I can find the cord which connects the camera to the PC.

Mine seems fine, but I was a bit scared when I heard about the missing center console.
Biante had it in stock on their website for ages and they still do have them in stock according to that link.

That's pretty interesting. I would consider buying it myself, but I don't collect FIA GT cars. The one I want is the #35 AA make which raced at Le Mans.
Anyway, good find, hope you enjoy yours.

Are you from states?
A couple websites are scale18.com, replicarz.com, diecastfast.com, diecastmuscle.com.
If you are indeed from states, those last 2 (either diecastfast or diecastmuscle) I don't remember which one, but one of them had some insane deals on expensive models. They had the Ford GT Gran Turismo for $69 (retails for $85-$90), and they had the Kyosho Ferrari F40 for $69 (also retails for around $90-$110).
Also ebay has some amazing deals if you are in US. Just search for the model you want, you will probably find a buy it now brand new model for $5-$20 under the suggested retail price.

I've got nearly 100 models now, about 95 or 96 I think. The cars you saw are all Formula 1, I don't collect Indy cars, only F1.
As for new purchases bondy, I will get some when I get back home from vacation. Looking at getting the Kyosho F40 red, the new McLaren Raikkonen 2006 by Minichamps, and hopefully the Ford GT Gran Turismo.

Ah yeah i was also wondering if anyone could help me find a certain model for a decent price.
I want one of these:
A holden torana SS with A9X option or LX SLR5000 (i think theyre similar, i wouldnt mind either) 2 or 4 door, eithers good, any colour except green. (ie. red, blue, yellow or orange)
all the ones i can find are either out of stock or obscenely priced

Cheers jef (and andy obviously)
im hardly on msn anymore because i have no need for it since i finished a long distance relationship in september last year, add to that im lazy and cant be bothered to speak to people while im trying to do things and there you have it!
$120AUD before postage comes to £51 or so, not too bad but it'll be a fair bit more after postage. guess i'll have to wait til ive fixed my real car before i get one of those beauties
