    I wish they would "leverage" some reduction in their prices so I could afford to buy one of their models. I'm guessing that is not on their priority list. Probably the opposite as far as prices go.

    Just got my ENZO tonight. Here is a quick photo I took. I have to start thinking of a Display area. I think I'm hooked on these models.

    Cheers Armen!!

    They are all amazing models and I wish I could afford to buy a collection of them myself.

    If you get around to setting them up on display, please be sure to post more pics.

    Morning all!

    First of all, even though I work here and I see them every day, I'm insanely jealous of the collection above! We don't get staff discount, sadly! I'll just have to lust over the models in the office. But anyway, I digress.

    I'm Chris, I've just started working at Amalgam (one week today!) and yes, we have been acquired my Motorsport Network.

    Worry not though, it's a good thing. Mr Zoi is extremely passionate about our brand and what we do, so he won't be doing anything to rock the boat in terms of our offerings and how we go about making the models. It'll be business as usual on the front.

    What will change, however, is the level of exposure we get, which is nothing but a good thing. With the sheers size of MSN, our reach will be even greater, and when the models are as good as they are, that's what they deserve!

    Always keen to hear your thoughts though, and of course, if you have an Amalgam-related questions, do feel free to drop me a PM.

    Right, need to fins somewhere on here to introduce myself properly.

    Chris

    Hi Chris,

    We visited Amalgam last summer and got some great photos and as well as a chance to interview Sandy. Our article on Amalgam went to press already - otherwise we would have made note of the change in ownership. But it is still great story and will be out in our next issue due out in July!

    Chris, Great 1st post and welcome aboard. Thank you for clarifying that. I had a great experience with my ENZO model right in the middle of New ownership. Received it on Friday and have a smile on my face.
    Thank you.

    Hi

    Is it correct that most models are built in Romania?
    Or still in China?

    All the best

    Have an Amalgam Ferrari F1 2000 Schumi World Championship model. Pride of collection. They are fantastic. I don't think it matters where they are made, as long as they keep the quality up to the expected standard.

    Chris,

    Thank you for your reply.

    I love the models and would like to hear more about new releases and maybe get pictures when new models are produced.

    I would love to acquire one but they are definitely out of my budget.




    The level of details these cars have is crazy!
