  1. As my first car I had saved my pennies up and purchased a brand new Mini Clubman 1275 GT in 1972
  2. I've had nothing but positive experiences with Gravity Spain over the years too.
  3. The courier just dropped of Italeris' 1/12 Stratos
  4. https://www.ebay.com/str/lazymodeller?_trksid=p4429486.m3561.l161211
  5. The intake manifold in particular is way off with only two runners on the left side
  6. I've just got a couple or transkits off ebay seller diolex. One is a Hellcat Widebody for the AMT Challenger and the other for the Tamiya Mustang kit. Both are excellent quality and arrived promptly and well packed.
  7. I've just found the board to be back to normal down here in NZ. Kudos to Dave.
  8. Adding to my Ferrari collection I some what luckily received this one which I purchased off Ebay Japan and is a mint copy. i got a message from FedEx to say they had just delivered it to me but there was no sign of it on my property. A few minutes later I got a phone call from a cafe across town to say FedEx had just left them a package with my address on it. I jumped in the car and went and collected it but I do wonder how these couriers ever find their way home.
  9. I've now done an inventory of this kit and found an envelope inside with the redesigned decals. The original decals were also included.
  10. I finally got a MFH Ferrari F2003 off Ebay. I'd preordered one of these direct from MFH and while they did acknowledge my order I heard no more from them and now its listed as being out of stock I've also ordered the redesigned decals they are offering for this kit but once again they acknowledged the order and I've heard no more.
  11. Hiro have just announced they have some redesigned sponsor decals they are sending out free to customers who already own the kit https://www.modelfactoryhiro.com/SHOP/K833.html
  12. I just drove this one out of Hondas' new car showroom....

    UGears U-9

    This is a 348 part wooden model out of Ukraine. Its 1/12 scale and everything fitted perfect. Only took about a week to assemble without any glue. Wind it up and all the pistons and valves work as it motivates itself along the workbench.
  15. i had preordered one of these off MFH and they even acknowledged my order but then they never did get back to me and I see its now listed as out of stock.
  16. This one isn't technically a car either but it arrived today and is a 1/6 scale Indian Board racer from CIX Models. Made in Italy and 3D printed. It looks like its well made and will build up into an impressive sized model.
  17. My Pocher Alfa Romeo which fought me all the way
  18. I can X2 all of your frustrations.
  19. This is a tribute car built here in NZ that was at the Autorama Car Show in Mystery Creek yesterday. Other than a couple of updates like disc brakes on the front its said to be an all but exact replica.
  20. I've got the blown HQ here and have found Tamiya Extra Thin cement melts the plastic and forms a strong bond just like on all the other brands of kit sets I've used it on.
  21. have just released their range of Holden Panel Van kits in 5 different versions.
  22. I've always just used Tamiya and always lay down a coat of the base color or some clear to seal the edge and prevent any paint bleeding under it.
  23. Has anyone dealt with this Australian firm ? They have some interesting items available along with paints ... https://www.fulboremodels.com/
