Sweet As! Will buy one later as currently too many pre-orders on FlexPay

I so agree dude
I gotta wait till maybe august or September

Oh but the downside with the custom color is that it takes about 5 months to build.

5 FREAKIN MONTHS That's retarded. I mean a new custom Rolls takes 6-12 months but this is just model

 

[JEDSTER]

I know right
I guess they have to match the color and that takes awhile I guess to search for the exact color to your choice.

You can customize the exterior color and interior too as well as number plates too I think. Coz I'm doing a custom plate too.

Contact amalgam or your amalgam official distributor to confirm.

I've had my eye on the Autoart R34 GTR in bayside blue for a while now. I love scale cars but never find myself pulling the trigger on them. Other than that I have the Aston DBS from both Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace in 1:43 scale.

Im building James Bonds Aston Martin DB5 from "Goldfinger" in 1/8 scale with all the gadgets,working lights etc. from an English partwork magazine over 85 weeks.It s due to finish in August 2012.Ca nt wait!!

I remember seeing the advert for that hoping it was 1/6th! If it was i'd have been all over it. I remember working out the total price too,

Very cool though mate please post pics when finished !!

When i want to go from lets say a enzo 1/12 kyosho that is selling for like $400 to a 1/8 scale collectible is there any other option than a $6000 Amalgam ??

Not really. Because at that scale it is pretty much near to $5k range. There is just one that I found on ebay which you can have a look https://cgi.ebay.com/1-8-XW-GTHO-Si...U_Toys_Hobbies_Model_Kits&hash=item2c5b631236

But dunno about the quality part or whether it will be as good as Amalgam.

Here is my complete 1:18 scale collection

 

[vodoun]

Is that the new Hot Wheels/Mattel Elite Ecto 1?

 

[Lejuan]

That's a great line up Balsquat - I like how you've given a whole shelf to each vehicle. I'm starting to build a 1/18 collection of TV/movie vehicles too. So far I've got the '60s Batmobile, The Ecto1 and Mr Frye's Ferrari from Ferris Bueller's Day off. The ones I'm wanting to add are:

* BTTF 1 DeLorean
* Mad Max Interceptor
* Blues Brothers Bluesmobile

...I'm also thinking about Starsky and Hutch's Gran Torino, Bond's DB5 from Goldfinger and Kit from Knight Rider when it's released. If only I could get hold of a screen accurate Ford Capri from the old English TV series 'The Professionals'... and M Bean's mini would be cool too.

Yes it is! Been waiting forever for its release.

Very nice build up you are working on. I actually own the Interceptor as well and let me tell you the quality is amazing.

The Ecto 1 is huge when compared to the others and really does command a shelf all to its own. A DB-5 would be pretty sweet.

My Ecto 1 is sitting in my pile of loot at BBTS. It looks great on the shelf in your pics, I can't wait to push the 'ship now' button .

press it!! press it now!!!!

I want to, believe me, but that would make this baby a $170 outlay rather than a more reasonable $140. I gotta wait for mk1 2.0 to come out. Then again, this just looks so awesome...
