Diecast Models

[_HighVoltage_]

I need a 1:18

 

[Anesthesia]

I've been looking at the models people have posted, thinking if I should get some myself(there are a couple I could have on the shelf as a decoration), then I realised I still have some of the old diecasts I got as a kid. Nothing that nice or detailed since we're talking about 80's stuff, but being a person who rarely(or never) throws things away I know I still have them.
I know I've got a white peugeot 205 t16 we built with my dad, and a Lamborghini countach around somewhere.

When I find them I might grab a pic of them, even if they're nowhere near as nice as the ones you people have posted.

Ordered one of these earlier as a Birthday purchase as I never made it yesterday.

Also, MiniModelShop seems to be a great place in the UK for models that are reasonably cheap compared to other sites/places. They also seem to have alot more in stock.

Very nice- AUTOArt's W100 is a terrific model. I am jealous.

I may have a problem...

I put the plate of my Anglia on. Makes me happy.

I'd love to have a scale 18 model of my car (and the car before it, Audi 80 B4) to make exactly that, but there is no E46 touring model out there, let alone the facelift-version.

I'm actually searching on eBay at the moment through the Vanguards range for some bargains, such as one of those Anglias which cost me ?1 due to a 'scratch', which turned out to be dirt when I got it! I'd like to build a little 1960s dealership scene.

The i police car is really cute.

It is not a police car. Tokyo Smart Driver is a project to reduce car accidents, pollution and congestion. I saw one of those i on the street and I find it cute. I thought it was a carsharing thing. I sae one in 1/43 for 2000 Yen in a store and I bought it.

So I got the largest scale model I've ever had for my birthday:

1/6 New Ray Ducati 998

The details are mediocre, but the presence makes up for it. I'll take some proper pictures soon.

This. A million times this.
I was never able to find a black C4 A6 Avant in 1:18, but I did find a Polizia version, but in 1:43 scale.
The TT, I can find a 1:18 scale, but its a lower quality Maisto model. It'll have to do though. Its also the wrong color.
And the Mustang I'm ordering, they only have GT500 models, although I suppose I have to give them a few years to make 2013-14 models.

Anyone know of models of my car? I've got a couple of 1/64 and 1/57 ones but I couldn't find anything bigger in the stores here.

 

[sicnarf_1978]

I think Norev did one in 1/43. Check on eBay.

Yay, I got two models the day before yesterday, an Audi RS2 Avant and a Golf I GTI Pirelli in Lhasagreen metallic. Today was the first chance to photograph them in daylight (sort of - it's really foggy today...) so here are the pics:

The GTI looks awesome!
