This arrived last week, courtesy of Mr Lobster:

Absolutely brilliant resin model by OttOmobile.  

 

Here's my full size (and almost equally ornamental) real one for reference:

Cheers Mr L!

Mr Lobster does it again. Nice Otto there. I like them a lot, but I don't have room to display owt like that, plus my cat likes wrecking things

[Junkman]

Today, the postman rang twice.

 

 

 

 

 

[Felly Magic]

More of those comedy Sootyvans, and pure Dastsunshite

[Junkman]

Pure unadulterated Datsun shite. The Gloria is adorably pov spec, with bench seat and column change.

I'm tempted to make it into a Tokyo Taxi.

[RedSparrow]

Bloody hell! I thought that VW was the real thing at first.

Hmm, maybe I should set up on eBay as '4starClassicCars' and put it up for £25k  

[Felly Magic]

I'd love to see one of those Sooty truck kits built, but I understand if you leave em sealed up, rocking horse shizzle springs to mind

[Junkman]

No, I will build a few of those. They are neither rare, nor overly expensive.

OOOOOOH I must get round to building the Fujimi Golf Mk2 kit I have at some point as well

Yow! In OAP-red with dark grey interior and steelies.

These arrived this morning via Dugong of this parish. Excellent service from a fellow shitter. Fit in well with a load of my other Commie era tat such as my Rivas, Moskie, and blue Transitski 

 

 

[Felly Magic]

I took fresh photos of my Eastern Bloc shite models, and shoved the images on my Fuckr site. Once again, cheers to Jon

Hey 'shiters, forgive the blatant self promotion but anyone interested in seeing the Vanguards July - December releases?

[eddyramrod]

Only if Corgi have abandoned their VAG-level pricing structure!

 

Or seriously, yes please!

[Mr Lobster]

Only if Corgi have abandoned their VAG-level pricing structure!

 

Personally I don't think Corgi are expensive - prices have gone up a bit but nothing like Minichamps etc and relative to pretty much everything else other than some partwork stuff they are very good value. Anyway, shiters discount is always available

 

So anyway, new from July - December includes -

 

Vauxhall Carlton, Mk3 Capri, Mk2 Astras, Mk2 Golf C, Morris Oxford VI, Rover SD1 Vitesse, Mini Clubman, Vauxhall Cavalier Mk3, Mk3 Ford Cortina and a few more besides. I was going to just C+P the list but it went a bit odd so you'll have to have a look for yourself - http://www.lobsterdiecast.co.uk/news.cfm?artid=139

[Felly Magic]

Nice. Shame they're going to be fucking shit.

[Mr Lobster]

??? Eh?

[eddyramrod]

I don't think these even need captions...

Oh dear... apologies for the poor focussing.  I might have to do these again sometime.

[TagoraSX]

What's the going rate for Minichamps models still in their boxes? I found a load of them in the loft last week, mostly Audi and Porsche motorsport.

[eddyramrod]

OMGLOFTFIND!  Value x10, automatically!

[Felly Magic]

More shots o my shite, and Eddy, SNAP!

Very much depends on what they are really. Minichamps Ford RS stuff carries a massive scene tax as ever but have a look at ebay to get an idea what they are worth.
