TSM smashed everything else out of the water. So many relevant models, it's crazy

I love those Mclaren F1 and P1. When will they be released?
Are those 1/12 P1 resin model with no opening parts?

I think they are 1:18. Missed scaled by the host of the images I suspect.

My favorite announcement to date is this Bugatti EB110 GT. I like the AUTOart AM One, but AUTO better figure out the wheel off or else!! :evil:

Oh I almost forgot, the Hot Wheels Elite LaFerrari is something special too. They just keep getting better and better. If they only expand into other brands they would make things interesting! :fingercrossed:

My personal favourites:
  • AutoArt's Bugatti EB110;
    AutoArt Maserati MC12;
    AutoArt McLaren F1 LM;
    GT Spirit Porsche 993;
    Minichamps Brabham BT44;
    TSM Porsche 936 Le Mans 1978 Winner;
    TSM Porsche 935 Martini.
Would be great to have them but imagine amount of money :deal:
Not counting models of my current wishlist.

But two models for sure - EB110 and 935.

That's a matter of your personal opinion. I see two, maybe three models that would be relevant (whatever that's supposed to mean). I find your comment rather extreme and In my opinion AUTOart has them beat big time. And if we take into account the ratio of quality, material, detail, subject and expected price, so far Mattel has them all beat.
Relevant meaning pertaining to motorsport history. 917, 935, 936, a bunch of other competition Porsches and several historic F1 cars, not to mention a Le Mans-winning McLaren. If that doesn't appeal to you, then obviously my comment fell on deaf ears. Autoart is a giant, they're expected to trump everyone. The fact that TSM, as an underdog brand, can come up and deliver so many important and desirable models, makes them a winner in my book. Anyone can make a billion exotics, but it's hard to appeal to the few that know and value motorsport.

Gentlemen is all about passion and enjoyment of this great hobby in the end, for some it comes from various avenues. Though Wes you do make some good points, kudos to TSM for filling in the gaps with these niche products :beer:
