You´re wrong Mr. images/smilies/tongue.gif
If you´d like to have a big collection and want authentic adult collectibles, theres nothing better than 1/43. Its also the most collective scale in the world images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

Yes but hardly anybody collects 1/24.
Without joking this scale is closely to be die out. Only the kits helps it to survive. This is not my opinion, its the opinion of many boss from modelmakers. images/smilies/wink.gif

I think 1:18 are the best size, epecially for seeing detail on a good model fmo AutoArt etc but my second fav size is 1:43, I got 3 cars.

I have all the pics, all I have to do is resize them and put them on a gallery to link here or

I plan on getting more, its a hobby to me, but as of now money is short and room for them in my closet is really tight. Ill have to wait til i have my own place and job so I can seriously get back into it, buying a few a month.

Id like to get a cabinet similar to what you have and amass a nice collection images/smilies/thumbsup.gif

I dont fancy 1:43 much either simply cos it defeats the purpose of buying scale replica's of cars you like because there is hardly any detail in them.
Some of my 1:18 model cars have a carpet like fabric on the floor which you will
never find on 1:43 cos they are too small.

I collect all die-cast models of the DeLorean. 1/18, 1/23 or 1/43 if it's a DeLorean I'll take it.

Man you don´t anything about 1/43 8)

But I was like you. Why buying such a little model for 20-25$ until I got my first scale 1/43 in Feb. 2000. Since then my collection of scale 1/43 grows more and more, so does my passion.

Come over to my house and I show you how detailed these models can be. The E-Type Roadster by AutoArt has Carpets in it....
So come over....just million miles away from Australia images/smilies/lol.gif

I´m sure you would be very surprised how detailed a scale 1/43-model can be. And I personally don´t need openable parts. I don´t wanna play with them, just present them and have fun watching them.
Some more pics of my collection:
