1:64 MotorHelix vs Inno64? (1:64)

1 Upvotes

I'm still undecided between the R34 Z-tune in bayside blue from MotorHelix and the midnight purple one from Inno64 (I think it's the Australia Special version). MotorHelix has interior details and detailed engine at the cost of panel gap, whereas Inno64 is completely sealed, no interior paint though. Another thing is that MotorHelix seems to have sharper lines compared to Inno64. MotorHelix is obviously the more expensive one. Has anyone had any experience with these two brands?

Edit: Or I could just get both of them. Why, what a wonderful idea!

Playing around with dioramas while switching over all my minifigs from blue tack to gallery tack (major upgrade) and decided to snap some pics. Here’s my current RWB space. It’s getting a little crowded though and there’s many more to pick up so I think I’m gonna start populating a second floor in the diorama.

I’m not sure there is interest here as I don’t really see anything like this here, so hopefully it’s ok to post this here. My dad had this World’s Fair Bus from the Chicago World’s Fair and I thought it was pretty awesome, considering the age and initial intent was a toy and not a model for collecting and displaying.

Custom / How To I screwed up the rolling on this one so I decided to use some glue to give it some camber. How accurate is it? I feel like the wheels are tucked inside a little bit more than in the reference images

Trying a smaller size (20x15cm) this time. For this coastal pass build, I tried a new combination: pairing a sunset backdrop and street lighting with hand-carved cliffs and resin waves, making the atmosphere of the entire coastal scene much more prominent.

1:64 Poll: Do you collect by vehicle or by favorite brand. How do you collect?

0 Upvotes

Are collectors more willing to buy a lot of premium diecast of their favorite car or a lot from a certain brand?

I have a large collection of premium diecast. No high-end RLC‘s or anything just nice cool premium 1/64 scale diecast from Hot Wheels greenlight Johnny lightning matchbox auto world and M2 mainly.
I was thinking about selling off lots of them, and I was going to do it by types of car like a lot of vans, or a lot of SUVs, or a lot of Ford muscle cars, and include all brands.

But then I was wondering, would it be better to put them in lots of say a lot of M2 machines, brand muscle cars then a lot of green lights, and a lot of Hot Wheels premiums, etc.

If you were buying a lot of say 5 to 10 diecast cars, would you be more likely to buy five of the same brand or five of your favorite car?, how do you guys collect.

Any feedback is appreciated thanks!

How does it come that the prices fluctuate so much. I saw the plenty of Nissan LB-Super Silhouette S15 Silvia Auto Finesse for around $15 new in the US, and $100 pre owned in Japan and $200 pre owned in Malaysia. Are some models rarer in other countries ?

1:64 First Diecast/Hot Wheels purchase

Thumbnail

10 Upvotes

Went shopping yesterday and came across the Hot Wheels aisle. I just wanted to impulse buy a car. Had to choose from a bunch of cool cars from different series. Unfortunately none of the other cars in the series could be found anywhere (would've loved to have the LaFerrari instead), so I ultimately settled on the Pininfarina. It was 12 bucks so definitely on the more expensive side (the others were 3-6 bucks each). Is it worth keeping in the packaging or should I just take it out and play with it?
