Very cool. How's the quality of the Tamiya Enzo compared to the Hot Wheels one?
 
Isn’t that greenish Lambo the color you were aiming for when you were doing the widebody conversion?

cool collection :biggrin:

yes, that jade green 40th anniversary was the original intended color of my widebody nsx. but due to the fact that lamborghini doesn't release the paint formula's to anyone unless they can prove ownership of a 40th, it made it very difficult to get this paint....

the other lambo colors are easy to get. but the 40th was tricky to come by. and teal can either be a VERY horrific ugly color, or just with the right touch, can be beautiful (as in the 40th's case)....

the hotwheels one (which is in my collection) is only a 1/18th scale. hotwheels models are okay. nothing that great. they don't come close to the quality and the detail of 1/18th's from autoart and so on...

as for the tamiya one, its a 1/12 scale, so by default it will have more pieces, moving parts, and detail because its larger. but also because tamiya is known for their detailing, and quality, the model is near perfection. its truly a beautiful piece...

I had the Tamiya 1/12 Enzo. I was actually quite disappointed by a few flaws. Driver's side crooked tail pipe, yellow glue on the driver's door frame, broke off magnet from the rear hatch, and some fine surface scratches on the roof and the hood. Thank God I bought it in this country so I returned it for full refund. I hope your copy will be better. Of course the Tamiyas are lightyears ahead of the Pochers that I have.

I love that display case. Been looking for something like that for awhile now.


ikea. last time i checked, roughly about 50 bucks for it. 10 bucks for the little dome light on top. =)
 
Wow...I wonder if the owner gets them out and 'drives' them, or if they just sit there?? :D
 
I have total of 4 1/18 NSXs. 2 from motormax, 1 kyosho, and 1 Endless. I lowered my blue one :)
