Team-BHP - The Scale Model Thread

Yes, the trains and most of the tracks are Hornby. The accessories are mainly woodland scenics, the cars are from Hot Wheels, Athearn, Mini Models and a whole lot more, including custom built big-rigs that I picked up at a recent train show in Calgary.

I'll look around for the thread and maybe put in a few posts. He's done a mighty fine setup, almost all the buildings are scratch built to scale. :D :D

WOW Buddy! That's a nice set up. Please do post pics of your Dad's collection, I think there was a thread for Train scale models. Cheers! :thumbs up

My new 1953 125 "U" from Maisto!!

Hello friends
Had visited mantri mall tonight. Decided to check out a baby toy shop called Beanstalk. It had lots of scale models both Bburago and Welly. I didnt get the one i wanted though there were plenty to choose from and they had kept the classic cars behind the sports cars. So kept searching for 40mins for the one i wanted but didnt get. Also an SLK 1930s roadster was available in another store but the Benz star logo was bent so decided to not buy it. It was a Maisto make but the finish was great.

Can this logo be fixed? The pointed star is bent from the stalk that attaches it to the bonnet. I really liked the model and probably will get it if it can be fixed.

Btw there is a toy store on Richmond road next to lifestyle near Garuda mall. Do they keep scale models? Has anyone been there? It seems pretty big 2 storeys of toy heaven.

Regards

My latest acquisition from ModelArt, Forum mall, Bangalore.

From now on please post info, queries, pictures of your collections, dealer names etcc.. on this thread only . It will be easier for all of us and convenient too.
