@SuperSelect: Thanks!. Love your 1:43 brit classics.
@f1fan: Yes, the RED VW samba is one that's hard to resist.
@Sujith1100: Amazing pics of the Pontiac.

Amit V8, i would like to suggest something to you. Why don't you create a low cost portable studio setup for taking scale model photos. You can create a Studio set up using house hold items or by spending a maximum amount of Rs.200. i Know its not a photography thread but still we would like to see the beauty of your cars. lighting and the background gives a charm to the subject. show your cars individually from different angles.

noticed over the last few days that Sapphire Toys is opening a branch at Koramangala opp Sony World in the erstwhile Mahindra Showroom.
Hope they have a good selection of Scale Cars there once they open!

@diecast - your collection is growing nicely, that too with top end models. the Tri-star collection really rocks.
