I am going early this year on christmas presents, so I got this kid who is 3 years old or so and I have been thinking of buying a small RX-7 (FD) for him in christmas present.
But I want it to be robustly built and it doesn't need too many details actually.
Does anyone know any webshops that sells something like that?
I would prefer a 99 spec FD model but any series of the FD will do actually.

Though for myself I have currently set my sights on a plastic model kit of a FD for myself to build. (For those of you who doesn't know me very well, I am an Rotary fanatic)

@James31278: Nice model, where did you get that?
Ehobbies.com exoticar.com I bought the RX-7 at Toys R Us. I got lucky no one bought the RX-7's they had so I did. I wouldn't suggest one of these for a 3 year old though it'll get broken in a heartbeat. Try the small Fastland RX-7 in blue i have some myself, they are secretly made by Motormax toys a good company.

I have somewhere around 100 1:18 Die Cast models. Today I went to toys r us to pick another a second TF Alternator Prowl RSX Police Interceptor. I also bought with it 2 Johnny Lightning 05 GT Mustangs lime green 2 tungsten silver Ford GT's 2005 Holiday Shelby Cobra Daytona, 60's sizzle white cobra daytona and a 60's sizzle 66 Fastback Mustang GT. I also bought a couple of hotwheels with those limited bronze faster than ever wheels, white cadillac 16 and bully goat 1999 GTO Concept. It's the concept but its under the name Bully Goat(GTO's nickname is Goat). I don't know if anyone can see the resemblance, even though its not 100% identical because of licensing.

Well I plan to collect them but it doesn't really happen. But I have a few you know, but my sisters *older, younger* have accidently bumped them and they are all fu*ked up. I kept them in cases but they cracked and then the bodies have scrapes and stuff so I will make sure I have a book-case like thing with glass all around when I really start to collect them.

But here is my list


Blue Jaguar XJ-220
Black Lamborghini Murcielago
Blue Lamborghini SV Diablo Race Car
Silver Mclaren F1
Purple Plymoth Prowler
Yellow Honda Civic Import
Blue Lexus IS300 300 Import
Import Toyota Supra
Red Ferrari 550 Barchetta

I'm most likely going to store all these away or throw them away for how messed up they are :(, but they are all 1:18 scale you know.

STUPID SISTERS :lol: Still love them you know but, where is The GraveDigger when you need him?
Seems like this website is a ghost town. No longer worth a visit or anyone's time.

Here's the only proper die-cast model that I own.
It's a 'Cuda, just in case you can't tell.

I used to have a Ferrari F1 model as well but that got wrecked.

Grabed all four of those models for AU$150. Not bad, considering they were $120+ Each when they came out.
They have fantastic detail though... I was bloody amazed when I opened them for the first time :o

The other two below were bought much earlier... about 6 or 7 years ago (Though the boxes were heavily damaged during a long journey over here... so were eventually ditched).

You have the eclipse :shock:

I love the F&TF eclipse.

Anyway... I only have two cars like these, a 1999 Custom Ford Mustang and my Xmods Skyline (hard to find now, last-gen.)

I forgot about this thread too.
Since I left this forum last year, I've been very busy collecting diecast cars.
And i mean very very busy. :P

I think I've got 100 cars more since last year. 8)
Most of them are Le Mans, F1 and rally cars in scale 1:43th.
Here are some pictures.

Here's a picture from a part of my collection (2 months ago)
