Nice additions, though for a few bucks more the 600LT could have been a full 360 access piece from LCD Models.

Awesome models up there!

Waited a while for this model because it more or less completes my collection of 1/18 scale Porsche "RS" models. This is a 1984 911 SC RS from GT Spirit. Sadly, I have it listed for sale already at a steep discount because it has a nasty paint defect on the front bumper... not sure what's going on with GTS quality lately, but it should never have left the door with this defect. I ordered a new one already. :okay:

The pictures don't look as bad as it really is, the top edge has rough painted area nearly 2 inches long or so.

Nice looking Porsche. Sorry to hear about the issue with the paint!

Well, there'll be no new acquisition for me to show you today. I received my Almost Real Brabus 4x4 from Racing Heroes, but it is broken. As soon as I removed the styrofoam shell, two of the screws that should have held the model in place immediately fell out, as if they hadn't been secured.

I am quite irritated at this whole situation. This is the second time in the last couple of weeks that I've received a broken example of this model (the first was from an eBay seller, not Racing Heroes).

That sucks! I've personally had good success with AR shipment wise :fingercrossed:

It says both Schuco and Kengfai on the box.

Two of the coolest features on my new Hypersport, the exploded view, and the shift lever:
