El cheapo IXO/Del Prado 1:43 stuff that came with a magazine. Each was about $11-$14 in retail, which was pretty good value. Today you can find them for about $10 all the way to $3, which is what I paid for the C-Type and Brabham:

I want that Cooper Climax!!!!!!
 
VXR
That looks really sweet and the colour is very much of its time.


High Speed is one of those brands that truly offer value for money. They make really great Porsche castings, and also offer some unique 911 models such as the 930 Speedster, 930 Targa Turbo, and a lot of 993 models.
 
Sorry to hear that. I dont't think the wheels would be easy to remove from a Fronti-art.
I don't have one myself, but they are expensive kit to work on. So work carefull!

If it could be done, you could try to carefully get them of the car, and try to glue them back together or ask the firm for replacement ones. Maybe they have spares?

And as this is a pretty new car, i certainly would send them an email.

If you need a professional to work on the car i could get you in touch with one or two.
They have their price tough.

I also would support the bottom of the car for the time being, as the wheels could go. Wich could result in more damage.

Very easy to remove, bought it from a fellow collector a while back. Sent mail to frontiart to see if they have spares and asked around on die cast exchange forum. Fingers crossed - wish me luck. The discs are glued to the wheels so trying to get superglue in from behind is not going to work but will resort to that if FA can't help out.
Dismantling resin car is very easy.
