    hi jet-x, thats an amazing collection you've got there, what make are those vector models? i used to have that koenig testarossa coupe model but it fell on the floor one day and i stood on it! now it kind of looks like a cabriolet thats been in an accident.
    and by the way are those cizeta models worth getting, im still not convinced by their accuracy and detailing,but if you think theyre good let me know.
    Im working on getting the details of various model companies together for our hoped for 1/18 cizeta, and will be emailing you shortly.cheers for now AL

    They're good enough. If you have reasonable model building skills, you can correct the inaccuracies pretty easily.

    Roel, they're a combination of handbuilts (kits), BBR/MR removed from their bases, etc.

    Why do you remove them?? No problems with dust??
    I prefer the BBR models in acrylic displays.

    Not with the acrylic display cases they're in now , no dust problems.

    With the bases, it makes it harder to display them in a less 'obstructive' view. Stacking is also an issue
