^ Correct, it's called and LM LW. I couldn't get my hands on the normal one, they are few and far between, but I'm not too bothered about that.
And yes scale 64 and 100 exist both Kyosho. The scale 40 turned out to be a 39.
 
I think I've posted this car on here before but here's a re-shoot I've done over the weekend:

Autoart Porsche 911 (997) Carrera S











I do have a small collection of 911 (997) like the GT3, GT3RS, GT2, Carrera Coupe. I just bought a Norev Turbo. I can't wait for its arrival. I will be waiting for Autoart to release the GT3RS Facelift and GT2RS this year. 👍
 
I just ordered a Peter Brock Volvo in 1:18 today. I also have a 1:18 2012 Craig Lowndes Bathurst Car on order and both the prototype and red bull X2010's on order.
 
Does anyone have any experience with the quality of OttOmobile models? They are a small company in France and it looks like they make a limited amount of die cast cars. I'm considering buying one of their models and wanted to get a better sense of how good their models are before buying.
 
Otto's are resin closed body models, not die-cast.
Detail is very nice for the price. And some rarer ones are now more expensive than when released.
 
AMG.
So far I've found the following scales for the F40: 8, 12, 16, 18, 24, 38, 39, 40, 43 and 87.
Missing at the moment: 12, 16, 40. :D

Got a few more to get now. ;)

64? If I remember correctly, Kyosho does an awesome 1:64 F40.

And don't forget the Hot Wheels Blvd Series F40 also. Even though it's not like the Kyosho, but it looks good.

At 1ness
Don't forget the Kyosho 1:100 scale, though i think it may be the Competizione version of the F40.

Now I have to look at this scale size. A 1:100 scale?! This is in the micro machines territory with good details? At the same time?! :eek:

Off to google Kyosho 1:100 cars.
 
Don't think Ive ever seen a Hotwheels here in NL but probably because I've never looked for them.

Anyway enjoy this at 1:18.

Oh I see, thanks for your help. 👍

How does the resin body feel? Does it end up just feeling plasticky? They are releasing a model in 1:18 scale of a car that I can't find made by anyone else. The price isn't that bad, but the price+shipping to the US makes it suddenly quite expensive. The pictures they took of it look pretty good, but it's possible to message pictures to make anything look nice. Anyways, I think I'll go ahead and get it.
 
Resin is used in the more expensive hand/factory build cars. (abc brianza, gulp model, mg modelli, looksmart) So that doens't give it a cheap feel if that is what you mean.

I don't think you will be dissapointed with the otto cars. I never heard anything bad sofar. Only people complaining the doors don't open for a nice picture.

I have a resin Corvette Z06R in 1/43 and it feels light, but not plasticky in any way. Maybe more delicate but not cheap.
You won't find a new 1/18 resin model for a better price if Im not mistaken.
However one thing about resin models is the wheels can be quite reluctant to rotate.

Why on earth do I want a Ford so much.
I heard they're selling out at some retailers via pre-order, better act FAST!
 
Don't, specially the F40. One of the worst Hot Wheels castings ever.
I found out that in general they're 1:64 scale according to the Interwebz. As I have one coming in soon I'm not bothering getting a Hotwheels.

Thank you.
More to come, watch this space. :D ;)

Finally recieved my Lancia Fulvia from AA yesterday and it's a beaut!
I'll try and get some pictures up later.
Looking forward to it.

Did you get the your Viper from the Target website because that's were I got mine??

It's a 1/18th scale Maisto Viper that I picked up from Costco in September. Wouldn't be surprised to find one of these in Target though.
 
Is this 1/43? Amazing detail for 43rd scale! 👍

The only Kinsmart 1/43 I know about is this one:

Though the link may be offline by the time you click . . . they go fast.

Valentino Rossi bikes




2005 Yamaha Valencia

Nice model. 👍 Would love to have that.

It is my first time buying from them after all, but I must say Im impressed.

I've never owned such high-end models as HPI or MinichampsEvo before and it's a real eye opener.

I bet. When you know you know. The rest of us can only imagine. ;)

Man talk about Alfa fever. :lol:
One fever that an Aspirin won't fix. :lol:
