GTPlanet Scale model thread

Ironically Kyosho is the best choice for the F40. Just pick up one with good paint and look for signs of chipping or rash.

The 2 Ferraris I had were so bad you could scrape paint off with your nails once it chipped itself away, and it bubbled like a pot of boiling water, but that's just probably my foul luck.

Thanks very much for the advice mate

thanks guys!👍

Now both of those are sweet deals, wish I could pick up V8sc's so easily!

Thanks mate:tup: and also thanks for the tip, I'll definitely check the paint before I decide to buy the Kyosho, I might be able to grab it cheaper too hopefully, its on display in the store

Found this on AutoART's facebook page:

1:18 diorama. Holy F word!

 

[VspecZR1GT2RS89]

OMG!!!

I want that diorama!

 

[R5]

Holy lumps! I need it!

 

[Carlos]

That is very cool. Do want

I'm looking for some garage dioramas. Those lifts and tools by TSM look pretty nice, does anyone have experience with them?

The same coworker who gave me the Lancer a couple months back gave me this model the other day when he was cleaning out his desk:

From what I can find it's an Ebbro Toyota cdma One Cerumo Supra.

Ordered a few cars to add to my collection, got them at a pretty good price too. Will have to wait though, until i get my phone sorted. Got nothing to take any pictures with at the moment. Will post them up soon :tup:

Actually I have a few of them. They're quite high quality and I could post some pictures if you'd like

Guys, question. For a license plate that has come off of my AutoArt model, what is the best way to reattach it? I assume glue of some sort. What type of epoxy or glue should I use? Would regular superglue work, or are there scale model specific glues I should use?

What did you get?

Oooh yes please

edit;
I bought 3 Porsches, smallest size I have ever ordered 1:87! And I bought something else in 1:87 too, it's more expensive than my Exoto 917/30.......

 

[mp10]

What did you get?

You'll have to wait and see :tup:

EDIT: Should be here friday.

Well the cars i ordered in the post arrived today, but one has a broken wing mirror. Would return it but as they are second hand, i thought why not attempt to repair it myself. So what kind of glue shall i use?

thanks 👍

 

[AMG.]

Superglue

 

[Alex.]

I'm going to reluctantly put my ultra rare 1:18 Minichamps BMW Sauber F1.07 S Vettel on Ebay tonight as I really need some money to make a payment. I know these things can fetch a lot as they only made 1002, what price do you guys think I should start at?

 

[mp10]

Superglue

👍

I've just put the mirror back on the car, going to leave to set for now. Will take some pics when all is ready.

 

[Alex.]

If anyone is in the market for a rare F1 model or two, I'm trying to raise some money for my tuition fees.

[Holdenhsvgtsr]

£20 to post it when the rest are £8?

Hope your getting him to personally deliver it for that.

 

[Alex.]

That one's going by courier or otherwise needs considerable insurance not offered with standard postage.

Just bought these two at BJ's. Finally got a scale model of a Pagani!

Like this:

And Motormax Saleen S7:

 

[TorqueHappenS08]

That motormax zonda is a great peice, A few touch ups, details and carpet where it is needed, and no one would be able to tell it's a budget model!.

i got one in silver, quite hard to find the silver now.

 

[MedigoFlame]

I would prefer the silver too. The blue exterior with blue interior just doesn't work...

Sorry to hear about your troubles. If this doesn't sell, you can also make a thread in the Trading Post on here and see if someone would be interested in buying it.

Good luck. 👍

 

[unit-one]

Here's my small collection. ^_^'

 

[MedigoFlame]

Pretty cool collection unit-one. 👍

Not sure if this is the same for many Walmarts around the country. But I noticed that mine brought back model kits into their own section now! There's the plastic model kits, but there's also the Maisto Assembly Line back as well. Including the Ferrari's and basic Maisto Assembly cars. There wasn't much at my stores and I was tempted, but needed to save some money for other stuff.

 

[Theace37]

Hi, I'm looking at a private sale of Exotos Ferrari 312 Box Gift Set.
He is asking $700

Should I bite?

 

[Doog]

For 13 bucks, you really can't beat the quality to price ratio of a Maisto. The Citroën, on the other hand, costed about four and a half times as much. The Bentley and Alfa Romeo are 1/18 Maistos, the Citroën is a 1/18 Norev.
