Dodgy name Kyosho? you mad? they make some of the best and most expensive/detailed models on the market, far better than hot wheels.

That 22b that got listed yesterday is at £72 already with 6 days left, I bet that goes for no less than £300

Really? you rate them that high mate? I had an 18th scale 037 Lancia, it wasnt that hot and ive just got the new Fiat 131 Walter Rohrl car and its not that impressive.

For the ££ autoart stuff is better,saying that Mattel have ditched the hotwheels branding on their new stuff and are simply mattel, the new F1 Ferrari (although not my thing) is not drawer!

Depends what youre into but have a look at Classic Carlectables stuff, albeit if youre not into Holdens then dont bother lol.

I need to get some direction with my collection; I have random Ferrari; [F40, F50 and 250GTO] Dodge Viper SRT-10 and the same 911 GT1 '98 [Le Mans winner] as the previous page.

I don't know what to do with the colelction - I quite fancy a rally cars collection but then maybe Le Mans cars would be a better way - thoughts?

From what I've seen of them yeah, there's a diecast forum I browse and the up close shots people take of the detail are brilliant, I prefer AA though as the range of models is far better, I would say most of my collection will turn out to be AA.

Yea I display mine to, need to find a good dusting device , cloths snag on wipers and ariels, I used to use a artist paint brush thing. Might try that compressed air stuff.

I was looking at these to display in, almost as dear as the models that would be in it though

Yeah compressed air would probably be ok, they are expensive but would look good, although I wouldnt pay that much for them
