Aside from the usual 1:18 models...I like to watch for some nice r/c as well...

Could not resist this 1:6 scale Ferrari! 1:18 Acura shown for size comparison.

the pinnacle of 1/18 collecting - the tofu shop diorama - some more assembly required.

Thanks for the hook up pacman!

I would add some panel lines to the plastic body to make it stand out and use some compound to buff the plastic to make plastic look shiny...

1/18 Land Rover Defender 110 "Camel Trophy" Edition by Almost Real

1/18 Land Rover Defender "Camel Trophy" Edition by Almost Real



I just received this really cool 1/18 Land Rover Defender 110 "Camel Trophy" Edition by Almost Real. All I can say is WOW! WHAT DETAIL!



When you open this model from the box, the first thing you notice is a small package that is labeled "Gift" from Almost Real. Inside this package are a Camel Trophy sticker, sheets of decals with names of past Camel Trophy teams (we assume) , a wood base plate for the roof rack and serial no. certificate.



The model is a full diecast metal body (with plastic pieces) with functional doors, engine compartment (with full engine block detail), roof rack with removable luggage, storage box along with four individual Jerry cans. The axe located at the back of the unit is also removable.







The electric winch is well detailed - better reproduced compared to Kyosho's Land Rover "Tomb Raider" edition



The undercarriage is pretty detail with a full functional working suspension.



The details in this model are pretty amazing. The interior of this model is decent. Flocked carpeting, PE seat-belts are all present and well executed. One thing that did bug me was the interior dashboard is to plain in black (not a deal breaker).





Do I recommend this model? YES. Highly recommended. Yes I know there are few diecast Land Rover's available in the market, but on another hand there are also plenty of diecast Nissan R35's produced...But this is a unique model and a unique subject, and it is not a sealed resin model.









Hope you enjoy the pics. Comments are welcomed.

Happy Collecting
William

1/18 Toyota Supra Mk 4 JZA80 with Ridox Kit by Ignition Model

Hi guys,

First thing that came to my mind when I received it from Ignition Model is Paul Walker, and the end scene in Furious 7. Yes the Supra they used did not have a Ridox kit... But still...

















Hope you enjoy the pics. Comments are welcomed!

Happy Collecting
William

Picked up the Honda Urban EV concept in 1:18 from relatively new company DNA Collectibles... really nice I enjoyed the flat white exterior and the interior looks fantastic. Tail light and headlight panels are nicely reproduced too.

Also got a OneModel 1:18 Honda S2000 Mugen in blue with gunmetal GP wheels... looks pretty sharp although I felt like OneModel can do a lot better with its carbon fibre reproduction, it doesn’t look very good compared to other manufacturers.
