Very nice Darren... Love that Veyron... Fine detail... even down to the floor mats!  

[mairandeddy]

Super new pics DHM    ....esp the Veyron!     

I can't imagine the size of cabinet/ display area you would need to display all these diecast giants... ..I'm at capacity with five 1/12s!!

Love the Veyron,Black&Red one of the best color combos

Hi Dave,the Veyron has a very nice interior,i like the key that sticks out next to the steering wheel i only noticed it when i took the photo.I think you have to look and look again at models because it's east to miss detail.

Hi,Yes i think this is the best colour combo for the Veyron.The only thing i was a bit dissapointed with was the lack of engine detail,but it's like that on the real car-the interior makes up for it.

[drivinghermad]

Let's TORQUE POWER--The 1/12 ANSON VIPER RT10 and the 1/12 MOTORMAX SALEEN S7.These are at the cheaper end of the scale and are very nice models.

[drivinghermad]

Here we have the Morris Brothers-the 1/12 Sun Star Morris Minor 1000 Tourer(the white one) and the 1/12 Sun Star Morris Minor 1000 Traveller(the green one)both of 1956.

An interesting pair DHM, with your pictures clearly demonstrating the variation in body styles.

...I have the 'million' coupe..(that would look great alongside your two IMO) .and would like to get the traveller....gotta say the wood looks very real from your pics, is it real, or plastic?

Hi,it's plastic i think but it looks very good.i have just got it back out to confirm,it really is hard to tell because it's got a thick layer of varnish on it.I would say its plastic? Have to say the leather look hood on the white one is crumbling apart in my hands that's why i have not taken pictures with the hood up-dissapointing really,it's like dark cloth underneath and you can just see it in some of the photos around the edges.

I am not sure what it is about those two Morris models, but I love them. I always wanted to get them even though they have nothing in common with anything I collect. I don't even have anything that scale.

I will make them my first port of call.Like i have said before it might take a bit longer with some of these models because they are wrapped up so will take a bit longer to get all the wrapping off for photographing,thanks,Darren.
