It had pictures of it fully open (bonnet, doors and boot) on the box....

I didn't see it yesterday. They've moved things around since the last time I was there.
 
Long time since my last post in here. I've gotten 4 models since I last chatted here:

- Ferrari F2003 Michael Schumacher USGP Pit Scene w/ rain tyres
- Williams fw14 mansell/senna taxi (minichamps)
- Lamborghini Jota SVR (kyosho)
- Corvette C6R #64 LM2005 winner (autoart)
- Lamborghini Countach 5000S (autoart)

The latter 2 haven't arrived yet, just ordered them 2 days ago. I'll put some pics of the first 2 sometime. Next on my future-to-buy list are Lamborghini Miura SV, Renault R25 Fernando Alonso, Porsche Boxster S by Kyosho and that's bout it for now. If I can find a Ferrari FXX at a local store, I'll get that too.
 
Recently GTRacer4 and I have been watching an Exoto Sauber C9 rolling chassis set. Since Lloyd wouldn't spend big money and I would, I decided to place a bid in this morning before I went to work. I decided to make the bid £210.

Now, baring in mind this is a $798.95/£429.89GBP model set, I was amazed to come home and find out that I had won with my high bid of £210. Another person bid the same value but because mine was earlier, i won!

Now I have a huge hole in my bank account! :laugh:

This is my collection. I've been collecting since I was about 9 and I've amassed 31 total cars. Wow, I didn't realize I had this many :dunce: I'm a bit lacking in the race car area so I'm trying to build up that section.

Sorry for the bad/blurry images, my digital camera is not that great and my hands aren't very steady. :(









This is how they are on display, which is soon to change.


I'm planning on building them their own individual self that will hang out from the wall. Kind of hard to explain, but when I finish it I'll be sure to post some pictures. :)
 
very nice collection! i stoped collecting for a couple o months, but i've developed an interest for JGTC race cars, im gonna try and get some of them!
 
Fixed again? That sucks. Hood problem I see.

Well, yesterday it had been a while since I bought a model. At Sam's, I saw they brought their $10 models back, so I figured, "What the hell" and bought me a 911 Turbo Convertible. I need more Porsches and Ferraris.

Thanks a lot!

Does anyone know where I can find the following cars? I've been looking for a while but I can't seem to come up with anything.

Ford GT (White or Black)
Bugatti Veyron
Koenigeggesggesgse (sp) CCX
Audi R10 (Do they make these yet?)
Ferrari Enzo (Black)
Maserati MC12
Bentley Speed 8
Toyota GT-One
BMW M3 GTR (Race car version I think)

I've found the Maserati, but it's made by Hot Wheels and I haven't had to much luck with them so I'm kind of weary on buying it.

Also, what websites do you all use to purchase your models?

The Speed 8 and M3 GTR models are sealed I think. MInichamps make a fully opening M3 GTR.
 
The Ford is out? I'd like that. :dopey:

Anyway, my two models arrived today. Chevrolet Corvette C6-R #64 Le Mans 2005 and the Lamborghini Countach 5000S, both by AUTOart. Both are awesome. I will take some pics of all my recent models tonight maybe.
 
Here's some pics. I will get some more of the Ferrari and Jota maybe later with my godfather's digicam since it's better than mine. Sorry, but no Senna/Mansell taxi pics. Pics of that will come later. As for the future, I can see a few models coming my way sometime. Porsche Boxster S (kyosho), Miura Sv (kyosho), Ford GT Lm Spec II (autoart) and Renault R25 (hot wheels) are all interesting to me.
