The Scale Model Thread

Pancham · 23rd August 2010, 00:41

Guys just wanted to know if we are allowed to post Hot Wheels models here?
P.S: I have a 1:24 Lamborghini Jota which is almost 9 years old. Will soon post pics.

It's some chinese make 'XQ toys'

But the attention to detail is pretty good. Except that the doors/hood do not open

looks like a RC to me

AHH!!! No wonder!! I just recently saw the Ferrari 599 GTO in RC too. I thought at first it was a scale model but then when i got closer I smacked myself in the head.

Mondo Mptors. But you dont get them in India. The only other option is Autoart. which costs 5K

Tata Nano by Norev. Not the best quality model but not the worst either. A must have for every Indian scale model collector.

Hey there folks!Been away for a while.Actually I'm in a hostel now and I really miss seeing my collection every morning.
@'The Bburago Reventon Discussion':I agree completely.I actually have the 1:18 Lamborghini Reventon by Bburago but I'm not too impressed with it which is why I'm hoping to pick up the AutoArt version when I come home this October.
@Zibby:Awesome Auto Union Type C there.Beautiful!
@khanak:Great picture that.I asked my dad to get one from Concorde Motors but he could only manage to find the 1:43 Tata Nano by Norev(Mine's the same colour though).Still haven't been able to procure one in 1:18.Someone find me a yellow one,please!

Cyrus43 · 25th August 2010, 14:19

@zibby, the Autounion looks awesome. Good pick.

sudeip · 25th August 2010, 14:28

Hi Folks,

I thought of sharing few pictures of the TR4 model I have at home in Bangalore. I really love the color as its best convertible.... If only I could own real one
