1/24 Mercedes SL500 (Welly)


This Mercedes diecast was spotted few years back at a closing sale of a local supermarket. It cost about RM 15 only. It's a very old model so do not expect much details from a diecast from the early years. However it's worth paying RM 15 for it as a 1/24 will cost you triple the price now...

Lack of space...




I believe a major problem by collecting models is that the lack of space. This happens to me when I have lack of space problem. These small models have to go into here. Can't be blame because I really ran out of display space...

Perodua Kelisa Diecast..



It's wierd right to see these diecasts in the market. The quality is just above average but still there is alot of room for improvement. You can get it at Toycity but beware it's old stock so check out the paintjob before buying them... Only appliable to Kelisa owners..nah.. a joke...

Maisto 1/24 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano





This is considered a budget model by Maisto standards. To me, Maisto produces models that are worth paying for. Everything about this Ferrari is well detailed except for one thing, the unevenness of the paint job. Else, everything is a beauty. Well done Maisto...and yeah ! A good selection of color for this car...

1/43 Del Prado Honda NSX



If I tell you that I got this diecast free from a Taiwan Car Magazine, will you guys believe me?
Hard to believe it right? RM 15 for the magazine and this beautiful baby is yours! Everything is detail for a 1/43 version and I believe you can judge it by yourself by looking at the photo...

1/24 Bburago Lamborghini Reventon




The Lamborghini Reventon is truly an amazing machine. Sleek design and a powerful engine makes it one of the hottest supercars in the world. It's a luck that Bburago decided to bring it into the world of 1/24 car models. The details are quite good but pity the let down part is the non avalibity of the brake disc... Well, it is a must own model for Lamborghini fans...

Tomica Limited Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X





This Tomica Limited Evo X is one of the most wanted model by fellow collectors here. I am quite fortunte to get 2 pieces of this beautiful car. Nothing much to say as this is an improved version of Tomica regular Evo X. It's worth paying RM 20 for each cars. Now in my waiting list, Limited Civic Type R and Limited Nissan GTR.

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution series is truely amazing to me. I don't why what spark my interest towards the evolution series. It's fated. I noticed that it is hard to have a series of the same size in my collection unless I build them in 1/24 scale. Here are some ...




Carisma Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution VI (Rally and Street)



I was thrilled when I saw these two models for sale at a lelong.com.my. So I decided to buy them. They are well detailed for 1/64 scale models !! I been eying for the Evo VI Zero Fighter for quite some time already but I can't find it anywhere. It's a sheer of luck when I find it ! Guess I am pretty lucky.... The rally one looks great too..

Maisto 1/18 Honda S2000






Well, Maisto improved the diecast quality over the years and this Honda S2000 is not an exception. Every part of this car is well detailed. The engine bay is faithfully replicated and there doors and rear bonnet opens. The paint job is quite above average but it's much better compare to other models that I see before ( I mean budget models). Well, look at the front and rear lamps, how much attention of detail had been put to make them realistic. Enjoy the shots..
