Small recap of my 2022 modelcars; not a big year for me, lost some interest on the hobby lately and I've other projects in my life at the moment, but still not a small year.

Otto 1:18 Subaru STI. Bad lighting here make the model look damaged but it's fine.

I got this one too. Definitely one of Otto's more accurate looking Subaru models.

Christmas present from my Dad.

Saw this car earlier at the spring Talladega race this and was wanting a diecast of it.

They’re all cool. I dig the AMG coupes and the CSLs, but that 190E, Sierra and 928 top this collection. 👍

Dear all.
Here is lates built (my second built of this sort of things). It's partial recreation of Fujiwara tofu shop location based on my favourite piece of Japanese pop culture...yeah, too common place, but i have not fount proper 1/43 location anywhere, so tryed my best.
Scale 1/43
made of: PVC plastic, wooden sheets, paper print, plastic, spray paint, sandpaper for the road. Used diod lights for interior lightning. Tree and grass - bought at nearby shop.
Car used: Carrot Trueno EA86 (circuit race car riven by Keiichi Tsuchiya) / Koenig Specials 512BBi / Porsche 718 F2 1960... well yeah, cars dont match the location, but dont have 22B and Panda86 right now

Issues: a but innacurate tofu shop signboard, wall connections. Will try to use filler paste next time or fix this location.

Hope you enjoy

 

[SPhilli911]

Well done, diorama looks great and photography as well!

 

[XJ40]

Excellent work, I really like the details such as the GT poster on the wall.

 

[SPhilli911]

Took all of my models out of storage so I can finally display them properly since moving and took pictures of all of the higher quality models...

 

[SPhilli911]

Picked up a few 1/43 rally 911s and a 1/18 993 Turbo from GT Spirit.

 

[TonyBarracuda]

hello, mates. Have recreated one of Assetto Corsa showroom with black marble foor See the results below . Took pics of some my 1/43 models from current location

JLOC Lamborhini Countach JGTC 1994 - ture lambo racing in Japanese GT Championship. Basically was almost a stock car, so had poor results , but brilliant appearance for sure. In 1995 JLOC team swithed to Diablo

And Spice Countach QVX - Group C outsider, actually had only a rear lights from stock Countach. But also looks amazing.

Next one is my favourite. One of Gran Turismo 4 dream cars. Ford Falcon AU 2000 from Australian V8 Supercars. #5 driven my Glenn Seton

My Porsche path to F1 victory collection. Not all the cars are collected. But these three models were desired ones. All are premium models, were on wooden stand.

1. 804 F1 #10 - driven by Dan Gurney - 1962 Solitude GP winner
2. 804 F1 #30 - driven by Dan Gurney - 1962 French GP winnner (Rouen-Les-Essarts)
3. 718/2 F2 1960 - driven by Hans Herrmann - 1960 Solitude GP second palce behind

And few more F1 classic: one is super legen...wait for ...dary 1971 Lotus 56B powered by gas-turbine engine and all-wheel-drive. it was few body variations. here is driven by E.Fittipaldiat Monza GP (withour front wing and only a read ducktail).

And Toleman TG83B - 1983 driven by Bruno Giacomelli. Unique for her double rear wing and double front wing. And just a pretty one.

New arrival and a holy grail of mine:

New arrival and a holy grail of mine:

Congrats!
Were you surprised by the weight of it? I remember picking up mine the first time and wondering if they hid some led inside. 😄

Thanks!
I actually expected the weight, as I have two other CMC models, among other heavy 1/18's lol

 

[SPhilli911]

Love those CMCs (I used to have a CMC Porsche 901), they are top quality, congrats. I regret selling mine, because they are worth quite a bit now so it's not likely ever going to be a model I will buy back.

 

[Venom800tt]

Daytona has not been kind to my wallet...

Daytona has not been kind to my wallet...

How is the quality of the Acura? I have always wanted a blue one, but it just doesn't look anywhere as sharp as Spark in the pics.

It is decent, though not quite as good fine detailing as a Spark.

EDIT
OK I am done with buying things at Daytona lol...

964 Turbo S Flachbau and 993 Turbo S

993 Carrera 4S and 993 Carrera S

Hauls for today. I am in Ōsaka at the moment:

 

[toastet]

Nice finds but way too expensive pricing

 

[Kedmasterz]

€66 for that 992 Turbo S seems like the regular price ; but the Maxichamps and Ixo are way overpriced.

 

[Venom800tt]

Forgot to post this model I got a week ago:

Kyosho Samurai IMSA GT Nissan 300ZX 1994 Daytona winner

 

[toastet]

€66 for that 992 Turbo S seems like the regular price ; but the Maxichamps and Ixo are way overpriced.

I would also have to add ~25% of the sticker price for import taxes and custom fees bringing them with me into Germany. So all pricey even if they're around market value before import.
