Those die stamped cars look pretty cool. Where do you buy them? Is it easy to build?
You'll definitely like building the GT3. Took me about 10 hours to build it though, but you'll enjoy every stage of the build.

These two F1 metal kits are considered "generic" kits as opposed to the brand name "Metal Earth" branded kits. Just Google them and you'll see the various kits they offer. They can be found at MindGames at Metrotown or Coquitlam malls. They also make other cool things other than cars, ie planes, military tanks, buildings, as well as Star Wars and Star Trek vehicles too. Just finished off War Machine and that was a long and tedious build but definitely worth it.

They're not too hard to build, but just need to take your time to putting them together. Definitely need small wire cutters and needle nose pliers to work at the metal. For the round portions (wheels), I used the shaft of nut drivers to get the correct curvatures.
Metrotown had a number of these F1 (F101 and F102) kits left for less than $20.
