Shite in Miniature II

[Junkman]

I'm still looking for a Tonibell as well.

Well, Spot-Ons are expensive, no matter how you look at it.

I bet they weren't cheap when new. I mean, even the Corgis cost a lot of dosh when I was a kid.

The money my parents must have spent on that stuff!

 

Where do you guys buy your spares?

Spares I get from Steve Flowers model supplies - he has a web page but no online ordering.   You have to faff about with cheques and its not desperately quick.   Or BTS Mouldings down in Sussex.   I had a contact number but cant find it right now - I usually see him at Beaulieu Autojumble in September with a big list for my winter rebuilds.    Ebay is good for immediate needs such as something I have bought that has a bit missing and I want to display it without doing much else to it.

Those spot on models are brill. I've always wanted the BMC stuff and the MK1 Jag.

I predominantly use Steve Flowers as well and actually enjoy his last century way of doing business.

Hay Jman were did you get that little lot or are they something you have had for a while?

[Junkman]

I got the Land Rover and the Milk Float recently. The others I had for quite a while.

I'm not sure about these driverless cars. Then again, an automated Golf is hardly likely to wander across all four lanes of the M62 at 90 mph texting his mate. Horses for courses. 

An automated Golf would probably powered by smug. Or an Apple Mac.

[unintentionally, Spot-On appears to have made a rather accurate model for me].

I prefer them unrestored like that, just like I do with real cars. That Amazon is a little peach.

Pilen OVLOVNESS in the background?

Pilen and Minichamps goodness.

[Junkman]

You no have Teknoness Mamzon Ovlov?

Must dig dungeon...

Must dig dungeon...

Teknos are a bit rich for my budget.

 

Nevertheless....

 

 

 

Couple more Spot-Ons.

[Junkman]

How is your budget related to a Tekno Volvo potentially lurking in my dungeon, which will be handed over to you,

should I ever dig it up?

Erm......

[Felly Magic]

My collection is quite diverse now, and this is a small selection of it, with a suitable shite backdrop. Needs a miniature Coursavior on the forecourt now trying to flog some shite nobody wants

What are the 2 Diapets mate?

[Junkman]

My collection is quite diverse now...

 

It is not. It's consistently shite. Well done.

[dugong]

What are the 2 Diapets mate?

One's a Mitsubishi Celeste, bottom one's an Isuzu MX 1600.

[dugong]

This shite is for sale. I should so a proper advert, but if you're not happy with all of it you can have some of your weekend back instead. 

Dinky 955 Commer fire engine. £15 posted. 

 

 

 

 

Two of the tyres are not legal. 

[junkyarddog]

Bought this at a autojumble a short while ago,

couldn't resist

I remember that from when I was a lad and it was all fields 'round 'ere. I also had a blue Corgi Metro in that scale and I'm also fairly sure I had an SD-1 in some sort of racing colours. Possibly Total?
