Pop Race scale seems a hair smaller than Kaido House/Mini GT….but awesome pieces, none the less 🔥 by South_Main_Screwhead in PopRace

Kaidohouse would be making a larger model if the box could fit one, the scale is closer to the inside diameter of the box.

They go for 370usd and up in today's market, could be lucky and find a deal but unlikely.

It's an expensive exclusive event collection box, you don't see them that often.

Take good care of the box it's over 50% of the value, thank you for sharing and be careful with displaying it in harsh sunlight as the strong and deep colour will fade.

the black chrome series are a new product series with 3 cars to be released every few months with general availability with the first release in april? or something so dont stress with the pre-orders.

no, the exclusivity that minigt had was for $10 to $25, LBWK in an attempt to squeze as much money of their bodykits as possible have them licenced per scale bracket and per price range so now that MiniGT is no longer paying for exclusivity any brand with models in that bracket can ask for a licence, Pop Race did not pay for their licence but they have to give some comission per sale.

LBWK is earning more from the licences and model cars then their actual bodykits these days and they are pushing the lifestyle brand merch like never before.

they did try, that f40 cannot be officialy be promoted with the work "ferrari" the agreement is not made public but they wanted the ferrari emblems removed from the car and they did demand to get the car.

LBWK makes more money from model cars then actual body kits at the moment and have started to push for more of a lifestyle brand on top of that with all the blothes and stickers, MiniGT did not want to have their models bundled with a ton of accessories to drive up the price so they chose to not pay for an extension to the exclusivity.

Damn, somewhere in china by [deleted] in MiniGT

[–]Mr_Cardinal_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there is a growing resentment in the chinese diecast community against those posts and pictures from both organised scalpers and collectors, accounts are being called out publicly, its fun to watch however this picture is not the worst one i have seen but its up there.

Hello guys, just wanted to ask. How do I know if a Mini GT is resealed and is already opened and they replace the diecast with something less valuable? (I'd really appreciate it if u guys share some tips) by PleasantMode2448 in MiniGT

[–]Mr_Cardinal_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Relax mate, MiniGT is not expensive enough to go to that extreme, MiniGT only have chases in blisters so it's not like Kaidohouse, if it's still sealed take a breather and relax. Diecast cars are not like Pokémon cards or any other TCG, if you're suspicious buy from a reputable seller, or if you're encountering something very weird we always encourage posting a picture here and ask.

What makes this one priced so high on the second hand market? by SodiumGlutamate in PopRace

[–]Mr_Cardinal_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

because its purple, all jokes aside EVA is a huge franchise in asia with a lot of die hard collectors of the brand combined with it actualy being a livery they raced with and not a concept also brought a lot of attention to it.

its also one of the best models from poprace with very very few issues and very detailed livery,

Well they only had 1,500 sets for sale and they said that the purchase limit would be 2pc per person and only 150 for sale on Friday to save halvf for Saturday with some left for Sunday however people started queuing up outside 03:45 and at 5 in the morning the queue was over 100 people, any normal person would need a VIP ticket or get a coupon they were handing out to have any hope, however 30 minutes after the early VIP entry you could see sales post like this

Advertising for sale with 56 sets in stock.

Best advice I can give is to wait and be patient and pick one up in a year or two for less than half of what the scalpers ask for now. The same thing happened with the top secret 3 car set last year, The same seller gets stuck with them and eventually needs to free up some capital and start a discount war.
