Hi Guys, I know Ive been inactive on this thread for a while lately. But was too busy with work. Anyway finally got to go shopping to that model store I told you about. As I mentioned Im pretty much in Dubai now so acquiring my dream models is much easier. Today my uncle and I went shopping as he wanted to look at a new home theatre. I was gawking at some of the cars in the model store when out of the blue he claims he wants to buy some scale models (he has some 10-12 Maistos of his own). So I chose 1 and he chooses two others and after buying it he hands me the bag and says these are for you

Kyosho Audi Q7 (Silver)
Kyosho BMW 545i (Black)
Autoart Mercedes-Benz 600 Pullman Limo (Black)

I took some pics on my phone to put up on the thread but stupid Imageshack is acting up. I'll try again tomorrow morning. What a lovely day !!

Good to hear from you Beemer

Has Maisto come out with a Q7?

blackadder · 4th October 2007, 18:43

Good to see you online Beemer and congrats on your new additions. Its definitely a good day when you get a new diecast. Hoping to see the pics soon. BTW, Maisto has come out with the BMW M5. It may not be as good as the Kyosho, but I hope it gets the job done.

Where can i get Bentley Arnage 1:18 scale model in mumbai ??

Cyrus43 · 4th October 2007, 22:12

a 1:18 arnage...that will be difficult...modelart would have had it but even they are shut....

Dippy · 4th October 2007, 22:41

You would not have got the 1:18 Arnage in Model Art either. You could try gift centre at Fountain. Hen generally orders on request. He had the hand made 1:18 Phantom for a whopping 27k
