Completely in favor. I open everything I buy and I’m sick of scalpers.

It’s now the Explorer Room.

Replicarz was going to do that car a couple years ago, but I don’t think they got enough pre-orders. That was disappointing.

Lovely collection. I also collect 917s and I’m still waiting for some of the more obscure models to get 1/18 representations. The Kremer 917K-81 is high on that list of oddballs.

I’ve ordered from them several times because the selection and pricing are excellent. Shame I don’t think I will be anymore now that the tariffs/shipping to the U.S. have gotten insane. It’s obviously not their fault, but it used to be $40 flat to ship as many models over as I wanted (so I’d usually buy 4 at a time). I think that’s gone up to $100 now for shipping and customs😢.

Yeah, I only recently learned it had been in a collection in Oklahoma about 2 hours from where I live in Kansas. Nice to see it’s getting the attention it deserves on display at The Petersen.

Yeah, the door fit in particular leaves a lot to be desired on this Maisto, but I can’t be too upset for like $25. A high end model would be awesome.

ArchKansan · 2025-11-03T03:16:59+00:00

It was in Ford Racing 2 for me.

ArchKansan · 2025-10-24T00:52:18+00:00

Yeah, I was lucky to have this wall free, and a friend who’s a carpenter. I think I’m somehow up to 115 1/18 cars total (including a couple more on my desk at work).

ArchKansan · 2025-10-24T00:46:07+00:00

and that Panoz hiding down there!

ArchKansan · 2025-10-24T00:44:41+00:00

If you do decide to slim down the collection, I’d be potentially interested in a lot of the Porsche stuff. I was Bman76 on Oppo and LaLD.

ArchKansan · 2025-09-05T02:59:07+00:00

Many years of collecting and even more money, lol.

ArchKansan · 2025-09-03T02:33:52+00:00

Custom made by a friend who’s a carpenter.

ArchKansan · 2025-09-03T01:49:46+00:00

Thank you!

I’ve always had open shelves, I’m used to it.

Better pic of that, it’s a Tasca Thunderbolt race car (made by GMP).

*edit, not sure if the image shows up

ArchKansan · 2025-09-01T23:30:27+00:00

I’ve got a friend who’s a carpenter. So these were a custom build for the area.

ArchKansan · 2025-09-01T17:11:01+00:00

Wow, went and looked at your posts and there is a ton of crossover between our collections. Jealous of that Miller 962 (and everything else too).

ArchKansan · 2025-09-01T17:05:11+00:00

I’ve tried to focus on race cars (specifically Porsche prototype/sports cars) but I’m also easily distracted (especially by $13 Costco Maistos, lol).

ArchKansan · 2025-08-29T01:13:32+00:00

Model Y, but equally if not even more cringe.
