It is amazing how some models increase in value...

And Ricko has picked more than few on them

wow...I had always kind of wanted this & their Lambo 350GT. Based on these prices, that will not be happening.

Hmmm never had a Ricko before, how is the quality compared to Autoart or Kyosho?

Well below both, BUT their choices on subject matter have been very good. Most are quite rare and quite collectible today. I own two models from them:

Vector W8



Cadillac Sixteen Concept

Geez man, that's how supply and demand works I guess.

Pretty much.

I'll also add, that Rickos are very hit or miss. Some models are very nicely done (though like KRAFTIG said, well below AA or KY...more like Welly or early Norev), others can be complete crap.

I have 2 as well: black Porsche 356 B (excellent) & white Ford RS200 street (decent).

Yup. I'd place the Lamborghini SV in this category

Don't think Ricko does a Lambo SV? They only did the Anniversary Countach & 350GT.

My bad, early Welly model

I bought a limited edition Verde Artemis Murcielago (autoart) for about 140 and sold it a year later on ebay for 380!
