GPGames Forum Scale Model Section

hehe, the sad thing about the Kinder Egg F1 car, is that the quality is probably better than HotWheels/Mattels.

Since this is a model section - here is a picture of my Kinder Egg SpongeBob models. I only need to spend another zillion Euros on Kinder Eggs before I have Plankton to complete my collection. How awesome is that?



The problem is - what to do with all the chocolate? I don't eat it and my wife can't possible eat three large bags full of chocolate eggs. However, I have found a solution which might be used by LS as the next tip of the week:

If you put one half of a Kinder Egg on your nose, with the small end down, you have a very cheap koala-bear mask for a fancy dress party. If the chocolate melts you can still pretend to be Othello, the moor of Venice.

REHAB IS FOR QUITTERS

wow, the quality of Kinder Egg toys has really gone up since I remember getting them many many years ago.

they were usually 1-piece plastic bits of rubbish thinly disguised as a toy, or at best, had a couple of bits that needed to be fixed together, but the newer ones look a lot better.

Does ne1 know when the Hot Wheels 1:18 MP4-20 is coming out. Everywhere says Q4 of 2005, but nething more accurate. I'm tired of wawiting

BTW what is the general quality of hot wheels cars, i've never bought one

thnx for ne help

dom

Mp4-20 has been released, i saw it at Brands Hatch last week :P but it doesnt look anything special.... id say wait for the Minichamps Version.

erm.... i m not really sure but if its like anything like last year its early next year...

Oh well i'll just have to wait. Look forward to the release, the other minichamp models look great

thanks, dom

Today I built this great model of a deer with chestnuts. I think the amount of detail is great.

Simply stunning Vader.

Will you be releasing a 1:18 scale version too?

have you got tobacco decals so I can convert it?

and Sk83k, always go for Minichamps if possible, you won't be disappointed. The Mattel/Hotwheels are more like toys, and are packaged like toys, whereas the Minichamps are more like scale models, pieces of art, and they simply 'feel' of a better quality.

I must say tho, i found the 2005 Renault pretty good for a Hotwheels models. Probably the best Hotwheels model ive seen.

ahh, but did you compare it to a Minichamps version?

I got a F 2002 by Hot Wheels, quite good. Got it at the Indy track after the race

Ive also read that Hotwheels are exclusively gonna make the 1:18 of Williams, this year.
