The Scale Model Thread

Hotwheels 1:18 Ferrari 612. One of the most controversial looking modern Ferraris.

Its got a functional steering wheel and for its price the attention to detail is very good.

I have one too. Never liked it in Stock form. Even when I saw her in the flesh.

Cyrus, I don't think you like any car in stock form ;-)

My new Nissan GTR 1:18 Bburago.
Found one in Pearl white at the shop. I liked it better. But it was the last piece available and had some minor damages.
So got it in red!

@YC.BALENO.CHD: Nice ferrari, the last pic is good.
@Autofreak: Love the 1:18 Red GTR, I have one in pearl white however 1:24 scale.

Here's a 1:25 - Ford Explorer Sport Trac from Maisto

@Auto freak - Nissan GTR 1:18 Bburago

Awesome Detailing
Love the carbon fiber look at the rear
Good pics . shot them great too

shankar.balan · 29th April 2010, 12:12

this Ferrari 612 is unconventional and really lovely to look at I must say.
Wish there were some more of the Ferrari's easily available in 1:43 Scale.
Would love to have a few.
cheers

Shankar, Hotwheels has some awesome models in 1:43 scale of some Ferrari's present and old. They look awesome and are very well detailed. I remember seeing a F50, 612, F430, Enzon, Dino and a host of others.

Saw them at Sapphire and Total. Priced at 599 or 499 I think.

CrAzY dRiVeR · 29th April 2010, 12:32

Guys, wonderful collection most of you guys have!

Please post prices in the posts. That would be really awesome and helpful to wanna-be collectors like me!
