I don't know, there's something about big scale models that draws me to them. Metal is more pliant at that scale so the body shape is truer. Less compromises basically. They look amazing.

I'm looking to get one of these. The size is really appealing and would love to build one myself!
Have Pocher told you anything about the discounts they'll be offering? When CK Modelcars get it in I could get it from them with free delivery and the 10% forum discount for about £430 - saving £70 on Hornby's price :)

After discount, that would be about £350 which is great!
However, when I do a dummy run through checkout and estimate shipping costs to the UK, I get quotes for shipping between $50CAD (says will take between 1-3 months) and $525CAD lol

Ha ha.... Surface vs. Air freight. Honesty the UK isn't a remote area, it won't take 3 months, more likely 3-4 weeks... If you're serious email Derek directly at TO, tell hm diecastsociety.com sent ya maybe he can work something out :)

I struggle to come up with something more boring than a model of the Aventador, but I wouldnt mind a huge race car of some kind. But probably only one, unless I get a mansion or something. This one is huuuge.

You could put a 1:43 in the glove compartment.

Yeah, emailed him immediately after I saw that crazy shipping quote, but haven't got a reply yet :?
