What scale and make? 1:43?

benbsb29 · 12th November 2009, 09:03

The GTR looks nice. What make, and scale?
IIRC, i dont remember seeing any GTRs in 1:18 and similar in black. White, silver and reds are the only ones i've seen.

DXB Mall has one and IBN Battuta too as far as I know. Are there any others?
thanks in advance

I have my eye on the Phantom from Exoto too, however Exoto is known for delayed releases

Those are the only 2 stores that Exoto has in Dubai. I prefer the Dubai Mall store, as the displays are much better and more inviting although the Ibn Battuta shop seems bigger... The Exoto factory however is in Sharjah.

Hey Ben, its our favourite - KINSMART.

I can imagine you running to a toy store after office today. I will be doing the same.

shankar.balan · 12th November 2009, 12:42

thanks for that.
now at the factory in Sharjah do they have an outlet??

it would be nice, wouldn't it, if one were able to get these lovely scale models at lesser prices from the factory gate!

No factory outlet yet... but I wouldn't really bet on the lower prices... most of the Factory outlets in UAE are a farce
