I haven't bought any diecast in quite some time. I just pick up these Gallardo Spyders.

Very nice models.The rims of the Lambo LP560 spyder are a little bit undersized I think.Maybe it would be better to make a wheel swap.

The Gallardo Spyder is from Maisto and the Gallardo LP560-4 Spyder is from Norev. I like the fact that the LP560-4 has a removable soft top but it doesn't seem to fit quite right.

$40 for the Ford GT?! I don't think anyone here would say no at that price!
Fantastic score.

Fantastic score.

It was a 50% clearance sale, the website dumping all of it's diecast. This happened over a year or two ago.

I picked this one up on eBay for next to nothing.

I've had this one for a while also but had never taken pictures of it.

Norev actually did a great job on these 911 Turbos, I just wish that they had gotten the rims right even though they are better on the 3.3l cab vs the 3.0l turbo.

I've had this one packed away for years. I bought it back in 2004 and I have touch it since I moved into my house back in '08. I thought that I should take it out of it's packaging for a little photo shoot.

That kyo GTO is indeed sheer diecast poetry!! Great pics Eric, thanks! :wavetowel2:

I have this and the racing #19 as it is as far removed in 'variation' i.e.
open intakes on bonnet,
rear brake duct vents,
deflector screen and duct on bonnet,
vent in rear screen,
different rear panel moulding/ light arrangement etc....and of course the livery!
Must dig them out for a shoot! :icon_scratch:
