I ask you once again, are you sure you didn't take photos to a real one? The details level is amazing! Great photos, congrats!

The Honda is stunning! Minichamps always blows me away with the amount of detail they put into their bikes!

Awesome photos!

I'm not into the crotch rockets but I like that Norton.  My favorite is the Caterpillar, I missed that one.

So I got a Ducati Diavel in scale 1:12. It worked out in detail, and has mirrors (and nothing that they are as thick as the hand.). And the rest, as was Maisto, and it still is.
I think this will be the only one model from this manufacturer, in my collection. And I hope that someday, Minichamps will make it.

Awesome collection here McSim!  Those premium models really highlight your collection.  Minichamps' Ducatis are really nice, however, I think the highlight of your collection is the Norton Commando.  Interesting subject there by AUTOart -- the fins for the air cooled engine and all those dangling harnesses and brake lines, and those touches of chrome... definitely a work of art!

Keep them coming, McSim!

[McSim]

You are  right. The Norton model has the best detalization in my collection. And I think that in the near future, I’ll add to my collection yet another model of AutoArt.

Thnx Geggga.

Another model from Maisto in my collection. I don't know why, but Minichamps not makes modern Ducati. But Maisto, as is the case with the devil, do not let us down. Enjoy.

[guggga]

Wow, that looks well done! What are your thoughts about this Maisto?
I am looking to add this one soon too, thanks for the fantastic pics as always!

I still try not to fill up my collection of models Maisto. But as alternative proposals for Ducati not, then I buy Maisto models. The model is made good. It is worth the money. If you have a model of the Diavel in the 1:12 scale, you can imagine the quality of the Panigale. Unfortunately, the model Automaxx (Skynet), made ​​better.
