all the nice models they keep very poor stock of and all the junk they seem to have scads of pieces with them

must go there again and see if they have that XK Coupe Jag still
cheers

Ok Update

1. Shoppers Stop in Garuda mall is having Silver Mercedes 300 SL Gullwing 1:24 by Burago (3 Nos)- Quality Subjective.

2. A Toy Shop in CMH Road is Having Mini Cooper (Old Style) 1:24 by Burago Bottle Green and White combination (1 no.) very good finish but missing one door handle available at Rs. 50 discount.

3. Model Art In bangalore has following new arrivals from AutoArt apart from regular fare from maisto and signature.

a.) LAMBORGHINI MIURA SV (RED)

b.) VESPA ET4 150 (RED)

c.) BMW 328 ROADSTER L.M. 1939 #27

@Maverick5490: Nice display case with good collection. Are those LED lighting in between?
@ac427: have never come across a skoda model before.Good one. What brand and scale?
@Cyrus43: Nice scale comparison there. What make is your largest EVO and skyline?

Here's a 1:25 Scale - Volkswagen Van "Samba"
Make - Maisto

this AutoArt Lambo Miura is indeed lovely but extremely pricey - Rs 4995 - 1:18 Scale
The AutoArt Beemer also is on 1:18 Scale and priced at Rs 4995 I think

great stuff - superb quality but needs a good bit of expenditure!

Personally Im willing to settle for the Welly toys in this scale but as always would vastly prefer adding to and expanding my 1:43 collection from Auto Art as well as other manufacturers!

The 1:24 Mini Cooper would be a good addition with quality at a price. Why not me cause I want 1:18 :).

@ siddvi: Nice Samba there I have one too with a trailer and a Beetle all 1:24 came from Maisto same color as yours. Pics will be there today evening.

The EVO is an Evo 7 with the 2Fast 2Furious Body Kit. It is made by ERTL. And its a limited edition. 1 of 2000 I believe.

And the Skyline is a 1:18 Motormax

Indrojit da,

These models are also available in Bangalore so I think they would be available in other metro's too. Surprisingly the quality of the new Welly's (Zapak games sticker ones) has come out good. these models are in the 1500-1700 price range for 1:18 Scale.

Nice GTO there Cyrus..i think the quality and finish are at par with Maisto ? For long i am too searching for 1:24 scale muscles, but haven't succeeded yet(except for some posted long ago)...not even Maisto's.
