It Is a Nice Model, but a total cost of neary £600 is not worth it.
Yeah you think it is a hell of a lot of money and it's kinda is...I completely share your point, but..but.. like Pocher which was 1st class kit model producer. When people started assembling the kits a lot of pieces didn't fit together, a lot were missing...then along came newer Pocher model like Pocher Ferrari Testarossa 1:8, which needless to say looks horrendous! If one adds a trans-kit, which adds more detail and quality then it is a different matter.
I questioned the quality of this model, until I got first three issues, I'm very well pleased with quality and to be honest it exceeded my expectations. And to think that it will feature a full list of operable gadgets! Oohh! What a piece!
It will be worth a lot more in future! And sure is/will be a great centre piece!
If you folks think about it this way, Top Gear magazine which costs nearly 4 quid at most times and contains no free gifts...OK sometimes it does contain a DVD or whatever...it is 4 quid...I'm sure it is a monthly magazine, so what it is still a good point! A lot of us spend a fortune on different magazines without even noticing a total cost in the end it rakes up. I get this weekly and I sure pay a lot but I get a reward...well will get a final reward so to speak.
🙄 When I get all the pieces I will dedicate one day to having this one assembled. Then put it in glass display, light up the front-tale and rear-tale lights, sit back and enjoy
🙂
There are no other Aston Martin (James Bond edition) in 1:8 scale available for this price, unless you're willing to shell out thousands.
In the end I will not loose my money with this investment I only park my fortune with this piece, then who knows..as time will go by the selling price will only increase!
These thoughts make it a little easier for me to part with my cash. And thanks God that I have such an understanding girlfriend!
One thing I am worried though is that if they stop half-way
🙂 But then again GE Fabbri report that they seen a huge interest in this model so fingers crossed!
All above said is entirely my personal opinion, so nothing should be taken personally.
