Shite in Miniature II

[Junkman]

Didn't Otto at one point have a problem with the windows falling out?

 

At one point???

 

 

 

 

I'd like to see more 1:18 concepts.

 

There are so many, that one could fill a house with them.

[GoGently]

Oooo La La

Top Tins

[Junkman]

Tin?

 

 

 

[mercrocker]

Aye, Tin................................. 

 

 

[GoGently]

TONKA!

[Split_Pin]

Oh like those last two!!

[TripleRich]

I do model Railways in my spare time.  Cars are key to giving the layout that period feel.

*DIES AND GOES TO HEAVEN. 1/76 SCALE HEAVEN*.

 

That is utterly superb. I have a tonne of unbuilt 1/76 diorama stuff that my wife gave me years ago. Electric pylons and everything. Must get the time one day....

[RoadworkUK]

I love the idea of re-creating an early '90s UK in 1:76. My best mate and I started on a model railway about 25 year ago, then suddenly discovered, er, distractions.

 

I've still got the swallow-livery Intercity 125 ready for a layout, though...

[TripleRich]

You could say I well and truly have the bug when it comes to model railways...

 

[RoadworkUK]

Ooh, MK2 NSE rolling stock behind a Class 33! Very Southern Region.

[Split_Pin]

That road scene is so 1988!

[quicksilver]

That's just superb and a layout like that is what I aspire to if I had the space. Fun fact - that beige Fiesta is a model of my actual first car (BLC 660S).

[Spottedlaurel]

I think I'd build a railway layout of some sort just for the background stuff.

 

Wasn't there discussion about Sherpa models recently? I think it was a later model that was required, but I can't remember if anyone mentioned this as an option:

You can tell that by the un-dubbed T25s....

Ooh, nice BTTF Hilux - didn't know they did one of those. Is it HW like the time machine?

 

I have the same hovering DeLorean on the desk in front of me

[Split_Pin]

I love that Hilux. I have the Delorean.

[FakeConcern]

Not in the same league as the recent posts, but I was very pleased to get this WRC Citroen C4 VTS 1:43 scale for £4.50 in a Brighton junk shop.

[Felly Magic]

Ooooft that railway layout is brilliant. I need to photo 4 more arrivals, will do that once I've finished detailing em up tomorrow

[holbeck]

 

A work friend has just completed this. I rather like it, it's even got Serck plates!

[Spottedlaurel]

Nice one, they didn't hang about. Good to see that it has a RHD dash - the box art shows the British Gas livery with what seems to be LHD....

[Pillock]

Didn't the Esci ones come with both dashboards?

[sheffcortinacentre]

Yes, best get one of these so I can get started on a beavertail.

[Felly Magic]

Warning, shite incoming! Terry and Arthur are down the lot today, inspecting the new arrivals.

Doesn't 6 Cyl have a real green Oldclit?

 

 

[mercrocker]

When I was a little kid I wanted to be miniaturised and live in the Corgi Toys display in our town's toyshop.   I still get that feeling looking at Felly's diorama - Awesome place!

Interesting video.
