Nice Diecast

The Doktor · 2007-10-24 18:07:42

Im not normally into diecast models, I would rather make them myself. But came across one of these in Model Magazine International, and was pretty well impressed! Some are a bit pricey, but id say worth the money if you dont build yourself. http://www.gmpdiecast.com/products/ have a look at the 1/12 GT40... nice

Holy crap they are expensive. I would rather build them myself as well. Much more satisfaction out of it and a lot less expensive. I have a Fujimi Ferrari F430 challenge kit winging its way to me as we speak.

The GMP stuff is nice but a bit pricey for what it is....If you want detail look at CMC, more money but stunning models.
