Diecast Models

Faultier · March 25th, 2005, 11:48 PM

Hi there,

I think this hobby is also entertaiment. We all love cars but most of us don´t have the money or space to buy all of them. Thats why I not only watch movies, play games, read books about cars, I also collect little cars. These are collector models by Minichamps and AutoArt in scale 1/43.

Do you also collect diecasts?
Feel free to post your models or just talk about them

my collection

SL65 · March 26th, 2005, 1:16 AM

Wow very nice collection! I'd like to see the Gallardo you got up top.
Im not ellegible to drive yet so I just collect diecasts-AutoArt 1:18 ONLY.
Being Aussie, I love my V8Supercars so I collect a lot of them as you will see...
Heres where I search for my model cars- www.biante.com.au
Standby for a pic of my collection.....

Mischief007 · March 26th, 2005, 2:19 AM

I want to at some point. But kinda have no money

.

andyhui01 · March 26th, 2005, 2:30 AM

wow Faultier... you have an awesome collection of die-cast

Faultier · March 26th, 2005, 9:57 AM

Thank you

I know Biante very well but just for having a look at all these nice Holdens and Falcons in scale 1/43.

1/18 is too big to collect

Yeah....this hobby really eats my money but who cares

SiR_dude · March 26th, 2005, 1:27 PM

I've got about 10 or 12....1/18 scale BBurago models. Not much of a collection...

freakster_991 · March 26th, 2005, 1:34 PM

holy smokes...you have got a collection which will make a kid really jealous..i really never collected them..i just bought them nd played them till i lost them....hehe i used to buy loads of hotwheels..just amazing these creations

Faultier · March 26th, 2005, 1:51 PM

Yeah Freakster,

but these aren´t Hot Wheels and also not suitable for children under 14

These are real collector-models to look at and to stand in cabinets. Some of them are really valuable on ebay. Check Porsche Turbo Minichamps and you´ll find something mdoels that go beyond 200$. Their retailprice is about 30$.

I also prefer Johnny Lightning in scale 1/64 to Hot Wheels because the Hot Wheels nower days are more fantasymodels and not that detailed as collectormodels.

SL65 · March 27th, 2005, 12:34 AM

Heres my collection

- all AutoArt 1:18 except for a few..
Sorry for the shit images (webcam

SL65 · March 27th, 2005, 12:40 AM

SL65 · March 27th, 2005, 12:43 AM

justin syder · March 27th, 2005, 1:57 AM

freakster_991 · March 27th, 2005, 2:36 AM

Faultier · March 27th, 2005, 2:56 AM

Can´t wait to see yours Justin

Good plan Freakster

freakster_991 · March 27th, 2005, 4:18 AM

hehe models......not car models...hehe bit of pervertism going into my sentences

justin syder · March 27th, 2005, 6:22 AM

unfortunately i dont have mine in glass cases. they are all in my closet so i had to take them out and take the pics of them on my bed or the hallway floor.

after nearly 4 long hours, setting up the cars, taking over 100 pics im done.

ill up the pics into thumbnail form tomorrow.

all 17 of my 1:18 cars and my 3 1:43 cars.

Faultier · March 27th, 2005, 11:36 AM

Freakster, you are really a freak....horny freak

@Justin:
Yeah take your time. Good things always take a bit of time

Do you plan buying more carmodels in the future?

This is not my whole collection. I have about 200 1/43 models and the number is still rising.

Same here, a couple of bburago 1:24 models are all I have although I'd love to get more
These things are rare and very expensive around here. But I'm planning on getting more into it after relocating.

Faultier · March 27th, 2005, 7:20 PM

Just bought this on ebay for my collection. The blue on this Bentleys is just amazing!

Scale 1:43

Renesis · March 27th, 2005, 8:59 PM

anything smaller than 1:18 sucks
