Die Casts Legos etc.

[Luzifer]

Here's a new addition to my Lambo die cast collection. Another rare piece from 2015, Arancio Borealis Super Trofeo LP 620-2 without livery, allegedly only 25 were made by Looksmart in 1 : 18 scale. Looksmart is a sister company to MRcollection who produces models for the public and also for Lamborghini.
I replaced the flocked wood base with micro suede as it was worn from factory.

It's going to be hard to put it in the Arancio display case, it's full!

You inspired me. I bought this a couple weeks ago.

Very nice. I think I have that hot wheels too. Are you going to collect some bigger ones, Maisto released this green 1 : 24 last year.

Two months ago at Costco they released a few more Lambos from Maisto, it was very tough to resist the temptation to buy 2 of each model like I used to. I always bought 2 of each, one I could open if I wanted and have a unopened duplicate. I have too many models and Rc's.

However I still collect orange H except the performante as I don't like the red/white/green stripes and that sea gull looking wing. I can overlook the stripes on a Super Trofeo as the rest of the body is an aggressive racing design.

I'm thinking about it. I have a Verde mantis Perf in my eBay cart right now.

I agree regarding the Perf. I'm not a fan of the stripes or the wing. I think it looks much cleaner without the wing. I think the stripes are removable and not painted on but I could be wrong.

If you want the best looking 1 : 18 model in green that would be Autoart or Mrcollection. Autoart have moveable wheels and doors, hoods that open. Mrcollection are also high quality but those are sealed.

Eidolon/Makeup is superior then either of these but based on my quick search they only made a green one in the 1 : 43 scale. In that scale there is less details.

Go big or go home... That night somehow the car stole the show among all the Ferraris. Women kept saying, "look at the baby Lamborghini!"

1:12 Vs 1:1!






The second evening we were now two with models.

These are current minis in my collection:

Your orange Lambo is very cool! That orange minicar on the dash and a guy in orange sweater are a nice touch

I like the ropes around the car.

That red countach is really nice. Imagine it was the same car with a modern engine, that would be epic.

I see you like, I think formula 1 cars? I watched a Netflix series called "Senna", it was a great series, I was captivated even though I do not watch formula 1. It would be right up your alley.

That night I was at the banquet hall with all the Ferrari guys for a 5 course meal but all I could think of was being outside watching people's reactions and listening to comments about the cars.

Right before desert I couldn't take it anymore and disappeared from the table. Once outside 2 of my table mates had done the same! I no longer felt guilty of the getaway! This summer I'm staying out and I'd like to make a video. This time though windows and hood closed for safety even if there's a bunch of volunteers watching the cars.

The ropes and the volunteers watching the cars is a must. The downside of the event, seconds after I parked I didn't have time to get out a woman sat on the fender to have her picture taken. The next day I caught 2 different immigrants climbing the side skirt. Next summer I'm paying a volunteer or two to watch the car outside the car show.

Yes, formula 1! They are the mini cars replicated from F1 drivers like 1998 McLaren MP4/4 Senna in 1988, F F2002 Schummy, Williams FW11B Piquet 1987 and so on.

I need to sub Netflix. I think it's better than Amazon. I am currently sub on Amazon only.

My Netflix just expired, which I only used it on the weekend usually half a movie. I was thinking of Getting Amazon but probably not. I mainly watch youtube videos.

Here's the link to Senna, It has a total of 6 episodes of his entire career :

I just pulled the trigger on the Maisto you have pictured here.

 

[Sakura]

Wow that is a huge model car! Imagine people's astonished faces when they see it on your car's dash, during a car show!
