GTPlanet Scale model thread

[R5]

The bright orange Lotus was actually a 1968 56, though not the 56B like the F1 car I posted. The original 56 was a Indy 500 special, which nearly won. After the 56 nearly won the Indy 500, turbine engines were banned from Indy lol
This is the Lotus I was talking about: http://www.tsm-models.com/tsm/store/product/240

Ah... My bad

For some odd reason I never did take pics of the S30Z when I took those sets of pics. Oh well, I just took some now lol

And here is a bunch of old pics of the Stratos:

DIY frames!

I've got 2 of these on my wall. They're made from IKEA's RIBBA picture frames, and I made the grid with foamcore. Got the idea from @R1600Turbo. They can hold 1:64 cars of certain size. The depth of the picture frame limits cars with wider bodies.

Now that's an elegant scale model... Amazing detail, it is a Rolls after all. I bet that wasn't cheap to buy...

Yes, it has great detail, definitely one of the best in my collection!

And the best is yet to come, right?

Hopefully! I haven't been up with it lately, but I want to start collecting again. Although I'd rather save up for a more expensive model than just get a few cheaper ones

You big money spender, you. I don't buy 1\18 cars often because a) lack of space and b) save my money. The ones I have now are mostly gifts by my parents and perhaps one or two cars I bought myself. Still proud of them though, I did get a really good bargain once...

Yes, it's great just to look at them and their detail!

 

[photonrider]

Oh! Big, big, big, big, big freakin' mistake to come in here again. Just too many likes for my wrist to handle!

And the jealousy is killing me.

All I wanted to do was drop in for a moment with some wishful thinking:

Wouldn't it be nice if they were 1:18s? Or even 1:24s?

Maybe one day some Japanese diecast company comes up with a VGT line of cars, who knows? Kyosho is losing the Ferrari license, so they have space for some new lines...

Also, yeah this thread is very dangerous. For you wallet, that is.

 

[Venom800tt]

Kyosho never lost their Ferrari license, as they only have a non-exclusive license for a specific price range. Hot Wheels is the one losing their exclusive license, which covered budget up to $150-ish. They chose not to renew the license due to cost apparently.

Well they did it with the 787B Stealth Model, so there is no reason why they can't do it with this!

They already had that mold though....

It would be like comparing it to the red bull x thing.

Looks like the real thing!

 

[photonrider]

Yeah, especially the second shot - if not for the slightly uplifted right rear wheel . . though that could be taken as motion, too.

That Rolls is driving me nuts.

Hope that the LM55 is made. I'd get it in a tick.
I love having models of the cars I drive in Gran Turismo.
