I saw this thing earlier today on a local shopping mall, on sale, for 30USD (normaly it's 70). Must. Not.Buy.

Not because i hate the LaFerrari. I love it. I love the building kit even more. But What i don't like is when one single little parts like camshafts or the brake or the steering wheel has gone missing, and i have to find the damn thing.

I wanted to. But i'm affraid i'll lose some of the parts.

I once bought a model kits, a BMW 850i, but then the brakes and steering wheel and a left body panel is gone missing, somehow. So instead i use the engine to create a V12 powered E30.

I have a few of those model kits and I'm not too comfortable around the tiny parts either, so I have yet to unbox and assemble them. :p

AMT 1955 Chevrolet, Revell 1969 Dodge Charger, Revell 1969 Chevrolet Nova, Revell 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS and Revell Germany Porsche 993 Turbo. The Porsche I bought from eBay, though, and the seller had the brilliant idea to ship it in a paper envelope. It goes without saying the model was crushed beyond repair.

I must be late to the game. What are these wonderful things?

That's a Tamiya Model Kit, where you bought that thing as a kit, paint it by yourself, and put them together by yourself.

Ow. That porsche is sad.

Can you salvage the engine tough?

You know, for some projects.

Otherwise i like your collection! especially the Charger.

Thanks, I wanted to pick up a few more from Revell Germany, they make some sweet F1 cars, but after the Porsche, I figured I better find a reliable source before I do it. As for the Porsche, I think it's only the body and chassis that got damaged, the smaller parts at worst, were pulled loose of the rails.

Well, i think you can build the engine and stick it somewhere on other models.

I didn't know about revell F1, but i think Tamiya has great F1 cars selection, but it's mostly Ferrari.
