Shite in Miniature II

[EssDeeWon]

Modified my SD1 Vitesse TP over the weekend to now look like a Vitesse SP by removing the deep chin spoiler, which reveals a standard front spoiler, just because.

 

 

[Mr Lobster]

mr lobster,do you know of any mk2 polo models?

 

Only the one linked below / above.

 

Its been done as a partwork by Altaya and same casting for RBA Collectables but not available new now. It'll probably be reissued at some point by someone else though. Quality was really good and inevitably they are very popular, scene tax on that £20 one in the link is strong. Think we were selling 'em at about £12 but I could be wrong!

[Mr Lobster]

Re: Norev CX.

 

We got one left, I've sent FG an email if he doesn't want it then I'll let you know Roadwork

[Junkman]

Would that be the regular one, or the GTI?

[Mr Lobster]

Teh GTi

[matt79]

Plasticvan, Conrad / NZG made 1/43 scale Coupe & Breadvan variants of the MK2 Polo models. Fairly crude, scarce & not particularly cheap, probably best looking on German Egay for them -  ,

I am about to have a major miniature shite purge, which includes a Fabbbri Delta Intergrale, and a(non fabbri) Renault Estafette with many others

I've got a couple of ye olde Dinkys and Corgis I'd like to off load soon.

[Junkman]

Which Estafette would that be?

[hazzalandy]

Its the Solido 4592 Renault  Estafette, 1/43 scale, BNIB, £3 shiters discount.

I think I win the 'Autoshite's worst photo' award

[Split_Pin]

Potential procurement of what is regarded by some as the Holy Grail of shite in miniature! Anyone care to guess?

[Partridge]

Model Tagora?

[mercrocker]

Spot-On Prime Mover with MGA in export crate?

[Skizzer]

1:36 scale Horsey Horseless?

[mercrocker]

Nah, they only did 'em in HO...

[Partridge]

Horsebox? *trollface*

[Felly Magic]

Daewoo Espero in 1/43 scale

[Split_Pin]

Forget the actual subject, its not that rare. It's the model itself, IMO of course! Clue, 1/18 and not an Otto.

[Mr Lobster]

MK2 Astra?

[dugong]

Bought a massive haul of tat at a couple of toy fairs. Will photograph tonight, with Setright ticket machine.

[Split_Pin]

^^Look forward to it, not sure on the ticket machine though.

Should go with the 605 I already have!

I've got one of those! 1:18; bought it in Trago Mills for something daft like £6. No steering or opening side doors, just bonnet and boot.

 

Weird model. But really nice. Mine has an ironic Max Power sticker on the rear screen.
