GTPlanet Scale model thread

That sounds about right.

So I got my new cars today, my Bentley Speed 8 and my Ford Escort MkII. I originally thought that they were Ixo, don't know why. I think it was the price that had me make my assumption. But neither of them appear to be Ixo. The Escort is an officially licensed product from Ford, so that's a plus considering it cost me $22 (about $17 US).

But the Bentley, doesn't have any manufacture names on it, and the base looks different than the Ixo, Minichamps, and Spark bases.

The Minichamps bases "1 of XXXX pieces" down the other end, this one just says "24 Hueres of du Mans." And it has an apex graphic running around under the right wheels of the model. If anyone actually knows who makes it, could you please let me know?

Sweet! Yeah that's definitely interesting.

My AutoArt Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale came today! It's for Christmas though since I didn't wanna drop $200 on a car model. But it's so nice!

 

[OtakuTaikun]

On closer inspection the Cadillac logo does seem a little wonky.

Its 1:18 and made by MIRA Golden Line. Also on the look out for a 1958 Plymouth Belvedere, 1958 Chevrolet Bel Air and 1967 Camaro to add to my collection

Went out to two Rite Aids today to look for some models.

Bought this:

One of them had a Welly C6 Z06 Corvette (was planning on buying), and a MotorMax RX-8, as well as a Aston Martin V12 Vantage! (Unfortunately my brother already bought one in NY) Might head back to snag the Z06 and RX-8 tomorrow.

 

[Doog]

So I'm using some photos of my cars for a project in Photography in school. I think they've turned out well, but excuse the questionable editing quality, I'm new to Photoshop.

 

[Carlos]

I really like the third and lost one! 👍 Maybe if you could do that last shot again, but with the back of the tunnel closed, so the Porsche fades away in the dark..

Good idea. Too bad I don't have the camera this weekend.

And I'd give my left nut for that car collection.
