Hi All,
I am currently in the process of building up my collection of Liberty Walk themed 1:18 Dicecast models. So far I have mainly bought GT Spirit/Ignition/AB models.
The other day I came across this ad on ebay. It says that the brand is Liberty Walk. I was wondering if anyone has bought these or is familiar with them and their build quality?

Advice would be appreciated.
Thanks
Anyone Familiar with this brand?

I'm not sure who the official manufacturer is some independent out of China, relatively new too. I think they are distributed by AB Models. I'd love to add the Red Ferraro but asking price is too much for what it is.

Yes, I could'nt see to find any info on who the manufacturer was and so was a bit hesitant about spending that kind of money on a random brand.
I bought an AB Maserati recently for my collection and I was not impressed with some of the build quality. One of the wheels feel off when I took it out of the box and I turned it over and all the wheels looked like they had been glued on by a tolder. there was excess glue all over the inside of the wheels. Managed to fix the problem but after paying £300 for it you would think it would be better quality. In comparison, the GT spirit/Ignition models seem better.
If the AB one is anything to go by I wonder what the build quality of this one will be. They have some good colours and its tempting but yes its a steep price to find out.

Yes absolutely agree, that comes down to QC/standards at factory level. For the price point it should be near perfect In my opinion.Managed to fix the problem but after paying £300 for it you would think it would be better quality. In comparison, the GT spirit/Ignition models seem better.
