That's a lovely display. Can you help me with where I can purchase this? Can do well for my Tomicas as well :)

Not sure about availability within India, but plenty of options available on aliexpress - one, two, three

Hey Dippy, if youre looking for these dioramas, I know a guy who lives in Mumbai and he builds these on order. I can send you his IG handle as well

Pardon me for the first row (my son's choice) :)

Nicely crafted! Is it stuck to a wall?

Adding car names to the photo was a nice touch. IMO, it is probably something you could add to the shelf itself. :) Will make your collection interesting for the non-enthusiast crowd as well. :thumbs up

Thanks.

Indeed, I wanted a better fit and finish but acceptable for the first attempt.

Yes, it is stuck on a wall with Fevicol (without any screw).

Adding the names is definitely going to look it more interesting. Just waiting my 5-year son to grow a little as currently it is one of his daily routines to change the car positions randomly. (I had forcibly stopped him for 5 minutes while taking the picture). lol:

It's been ages since I posted / bought a new Scale Model. All of the following images are pre-covid.

My Porsches :loveit

A couple of new additions to my Ferrari stable:

1:18 GT Spirit Ferrari F40 LM
1:18 GT Spirit Ferrari 348 Spider

Both are limited edition models. After getting the 348 Spider, I have all three body styles of the 348 in 1:18 scale.

A cousin-in-law sent this to me. Made by Maisto. 1:12 Scale. Dark Stealth Black. Royal Enfield Classic 350.
Very nice!

Were these sourced locally? heard a big chunk of the GT Spirit consignment was with customs. I have a few models on order since May and been waiting for them including the LM (different color though).

Yes sourced these from Mumbai itself.

Also yesterday another model I bought off Ebay came in. Got this 1:18 of the Niki Lauda 1977 Ferrari 312 T2 B. This one is made by Model Car Group.

Added a Defender 90 to the collection in 1/26 scale.

Also added a Defender 110 in 1/18 scale. I really like this one.

So, how many is too many? :D
