Hello. Please can you share -Where did u buy there from. Thanks

Picked up a GTR R34 in 1:24 scale, made by Welly.



Figured the Bayside Blue was better suited to black alloys than the silver, so modded it to have black wheels.





Posing with the R35.

My latest addition-

Hitachi Construction Machinery Wheel Loader ZW220 1:110

Hitachi Loading Shovel EX8000-7 1:300

Hitachi rigid dump truck EH3500AC II 1:185

My black Toyota collection.

Hilux, Century, Crown and Hiace.



And a Jimny to add some color.

my latest 1:24 scale 1957 GAZ Pobeda sedan bought on amazon.

Hi,

I got my first Mini GT scale model yesterday, a Lamborghini Aventador SVJ in Verde Mantis. I’m so excited & feel like I’m gonna start collecting & make it a hobby!

Royal Enfield has launched the 1:3 scale model of their popular lineup and I had the privilege to witness a few up close during the 2022 Rider Mania. The attention to detail is very obvious. Also had the privilege of interacting with a gentleman from the Design team, who informed me that RE is working on these scale models for all their releases, currently in production. I was obviously most interested in a Forest Green model of B500. but that I guess, will probably never ever materialize. These 1:3 models come with a working type clutch, brake levers, and an ignition key. I did not try the gear lever though ( I was simply awestruck with this ART and visited the outlet all three days) I typically wanted to know if RE is also thinking to bring some sort of a working engine under this; might be too far fetched as I was all bowled up, but the gentleman did not deny either. Putting it over here, as some of you might be interested in these life-like scale models. These are worth a gem. The price is approx 70K. Do enjoy some of the pictures

The EV brigade is here, selling at a shelf near us. Was pleasantly surprised to see these.

Wandered into one of the zillion Hamleys shops in Bangalore today. Came out with a couple of Majorettes.

Then trailed along with my wife into the Nicobar Store and grabbed these cute little tin biplanes and a wind up engine. A couple years back I’d got another wind up engine and wind up aircraft from that store.

Re-living childhood…

Got a RedBull RB16B in the Honda tribute white livery.
Looks fantastic! :loveit

A stylized scale model (approximately 1:14) of the Pagani Huayra R. This is one of those "made from a single billet of Aluminum" things that Pagani does, and it is remarkably heavy. They will make one such model for each actual car, so eventually only 30 should be in existence.

I have this 1:18 scale model of 1995 Ferrari F50, which was sitting in my collection, and this weekend, thought of taking it out and showing a few photos.

I purchased this model long back, sometime around year 2000 in the US. Thus, this scale model itself is more than 20 years old now, and unfortunately, has a few nicks and scratches, and some dust marks which are visible in the photos. Sorry about those.

This model has quite a good amount of details. The mode itself has "Made in Italy" mark in the bottom.

The interiors (red car with black interiors, my favorite color theme):



Notice the details in the interior, including the instrument panel, the F50 logo on the passenger side of the dashboard, and the Ferrari logos stamped in the footwells:

A parting shot from the other angle:

I tried my hand at making a Rajdoot Scale model last year, it is approximately at 1:16 scale, It is my first effort hence there are rough finishes.
Materials used, Foam sheet, Empty pen refills, Steel wires, electrical wire(thin) and foil.
Moving parts are the wheels and handle.
Took me approximately 2.5 full days time.
Why a Rajdoot? it was the first ever automobile I kick started when I was a high school going boy.
Here are the pictures.

















My Rajdoot along with my Maisto Triumph

Good work there! clap:
As you said there are rough finishes, but nothing beats the joy of knowing this was built, not bought.

I really want to get this. Can you provide info on where to get this?
