New Sun Star 1:18 Models for January/February 2015

A slew of new models are coming in the new year from Sun Star. Their Rally Series sees a new entry, MG Metro 6R4 #19 car, driven by M.Duez and W.Lux in the 1986 RAC Rally (BELGA). A great budget piece! Other notables include:

Cadillac Eldorado Brougham 1957 – Lake Placid Blue
Ford Escort Mk III RS1600i – #74 Richard Belcher – 1985 British Saloon Car Championship-Class C Champion
Ford Escort MKIII 1600i

Apparently the QC is horrible and those are all decals that'll eventually peel. Can't tell from here

Its a budget brand Wes, very decent for the price, and subject matter you just can't find.

Yeah but I still expect them to last. I would have bought many of these, but I'm put off by the decals cause I know the model will be junk one day :(

I have a couple (Pug 307 & Audi Quattro)...I'll see if I can check tonight. I didn't think they were decals, but I haven't looked close in a while.

I have Subaru Impreza, Ford Escort and Lancia Stratos. Will get back to you when I take a good look at their paint.
