I’ve never heard of Davis and Giovanni before as a model maker but these two LB Aventadors with glow in the dark paint schemes are pretty damn cool!

More cars from Tofu - Lancia Rally 037 Stradale

Hi Everyone!

More of Tofu's models...1/18 Lancia Rally 037 Stradale by Kyosho.

They don't make die-cast like this anymore....Don't you miss the old Kyosho die-cast models (minus the paint rash obviously)....





















Comments are welcomed!

Happy Collecting!

1/18 Honda Civic EF9 SiR by Igniton Model

Hi Eveyrone!

This is the new 1/18 Honda Civic EF9 SiR by Ignition Model.

The paint is super flawless. Another example of fine craftsmanship from Ignition. Unfortunately it is resin...but it look sooo damn good!













Comments are welcomed!

Happy Collecting!

William

HobbyDigi.hk/tomytec

initial-d fujiwara tofu shop. 1/18 scale. i know it has a detailed shop interior right down to tofu in vats, but not sure if the living spaces in the back and on 2nd floor exist. hand made to order, it comes as a kit and i guess you put it together like a snap-on set?:

There's a few 1/43 Mk1 MR2's out there. I don't know if anyone in the bcmr2 club has one for sale though, that might be tough to find locally.
