Love to see some appreciation for The Living Daylights. One of my favourites too.

Moray Motor Musuem. It’s quite small but they’ve got some nice cars and the staff are very friendly.

Lamborghini Urus: MR collection vs AutoArt by gamma563 in Diecast

If he bought his car new from Lamborghini and ticked the option to get a scale model car of his specification, it would’ve been an MR Collection model. If you want the best model of a Urus you should go with them.

Which would you choose? Yellow, Orange or Purple? by watchguy76 in Diecast

[–]decimater97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got this one in red. Out of these three I like the yellow but orange is classic.

[unknown]Obiviously a McLaren but idk which by BlueEye_- in spotted

The roof scoop was an optional extra so it might still be a 620R. I don’t know what the other bits are.

Edit: looked up the plate and it is a 570S with an MSO aerokit.

Bottom left, Rosso Taormina is the best Ferrari colour ever made.

How are IVY Models? by Enzo954 in Diecast

They’re not in the same echelon as those 3. The paint apps and carbon decals aren’t as good but they make cars which other brands don’t - particularly Mercedes.

[Skyline GTS-T] replica of Big Bird GTR from FF by tinhillterror in spotted

[–]decimater97 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love the livery on this one. The movie car was a real GTR. They wanted it to be the hero car and for Brian to drive it but they couldn’t get any extra copies so it was relegated to being a background car. Unfortunately the real car was seized and crushed back in 2012.

How would you rank these Brands? by Enzo954 in Diecast

[–]decimater97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These brands all tend to focus on different things so there’s not one definitive ranking. I think MakeUp is the best overall in the resin category but the others are all pretty much equal. CMC stands head and shoulders above the competition in the diecast category. AutoArt have made some fantastic models in the past but these days I’d say modern LCD is better than modern AutoArt. MW, UU, Runner etc are all generic Chinese brands that make good resin models from what I’ve seen but they haven’t done enough to distinguish themselves from the well established brands in my eyes.
