You´re wrong Mr.
![]() 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 ![]()

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. ![]()

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

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.

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 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: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() look how detailed the brakes are.

I love your collection too, I've gotta build myself a collection like this one
Maybe you could arrange them all in one big line as if it's a traffic jam and photograph them ![]() |
