@planet rocker: superb collection, loved your Alfa Brera !
@benbsb29: Great job on the scorp - she's looking so lifelike.
@abhishek: WOW, the 190 E is on my most wanted list. Great to see such a lovely example.
@flotsam: Buddy your Alfa Romeo's driven me crazy. Love the detailing in the trunk, the stickers on the rear windscreen, the interiors !

Abishek_bmw: Fantastic Merc, I love it!
Superselect: Thanks for appreciating the Alfa: I like the detailing too.

@Cyrus: I asked you a question man... :-) Good mod,but I would comment if it was not from you (Cyrus=modding).
(cant post smilies from PDA)

Dippy · 7th September 2009, 10:56

@flotsam: Thats a lovely pick-up. The detailing in Minichamps 1:43 scale model is awesome just like their 1:18 counterparts. How many Minichamps die-casts do you have?

Hi Dippy: yes, I like Minichamps for their exquisite detailing. Almost as good as the real thing. I have about 30+ Minichamps, in fact the bulk of my collection is Minichamps. Will post more soon as I take more photos of the rest.
Here is one for now: 1:43 Minichamps Buessing 8000 S Canvas Truck (Blue/Red)

benbsb29 · 7th September 2009, 11:26

@floatsam : The detailing on that is awesome! Even the brake lights have so much of detailing on them! Lovely!

I picked her up for around 1500 last year.. Dont remember the exact price. And the Wheels were painted ages ago. The Stripes, are a recent addition. Gibes the car a nice muscular feel.
