    What's the difference in price, exoto to HW?

    I've ordered the HW for 130 euro. The Exoto regularly sells on Ebay for 800-900 euro.

    I've got the Exoto too but this is a good oppertunity for those who missed out and aren't willing/able to spend hundreds of euros.

    I knew it was going to be sealed (just like all the HW F1 cars...) - how is it otherwise? On par with the F14T, for example?

    Yeah, the Exoto versions bring ~$1,000+ any more, it seems.

    It's alright, the f14t looks better ,I have just found some small marks on the paint
    And 1 of the rear tyres is damaged,I will hold on to it,I have the exoto version boxed away
    8 years ago I paid the same price for the exoto model as I did for HWE version.

    Would love to see the exoto, if you ever drag it out...

    Not the best picture, but it's dang near impossible to get much detail and still meet the upload requirements :-/

    Coincidentally, the T2 took the last open display spot. So I'm full now - 108 cars. Will have to order another display case when the red Speciale is finally shipping.

    Thanks for the kind words, guys... I've been building the collection for about half of my life now. Has seen several evolutions - the last about 7 or 8 years ago when I went all Ferrari (focus on red, obviously). I've got 6 1:12 Ferraris, too, but they're packed away, currently. I ordered a red Speciale yesterday, should be here late next week. Will post pics when it comes - not sure what to do with it (something will have to move out to make room)

    Joe - sorry to hear you ended up having to send yours back. Hopefully the new one will arrive quickly and in perfect condition. I've heard of issues with the Speciales, hoping mine is free of defects.

    This is GREAT!! If I had a staircase like that (and if my wife would put up with it), I'd love something like that. Sadly (in both cases....).... :(

    Thanks for posting.
