Got mine this week another stunning model from otto

jason_nike

OTTO models do seem to be very good.
Shame they appear on ebay for double the price tho

thebigmacmoomin

Most people probably don't realise that you can buy them direct from Otto, so it keeps the eBay sellers selling them.

Even though they are sealed, they are still cheap considering the prices of other brands. My 3 Focus RS's work out at 62.33 posted each. Otto's prices have only gone up a couple of euros in the past few years compared to other brands aswell.

Would love a Espace F1 but they don't come up for sale that much, if at all.

I'm eagerly awaiting for my one too, I have a nice model of each variant now, well when the sapphire turns up that is lol trying to find modifying parts for the sapphire is not too easy though, the modeling world is a bit secretive like the tuners of the real cars out there lol here's the other two models I've acquired lately

Cool them Charlie. I want the wheels off your escos model. Do you know where them wheels come from or did you just buy it like that.

charlie luciano

iTrader: (3)

Not a clue where the rims come from Glenn sorry bud, I think they are oz's iirc,bought the model as is, but check this site out, he has some nice rims

Start of a long and expensive slippery slope collecting these cars

charlie luciano

iTrader: (3)

That's it for me Jay one of each variant is enough, it's not just the models, I've just shelled out for two new display cases, I've got to buy and put up another couple of corner shelves, plus I simply don't have the room for loads of these models


Luciano

No don't say that mate I'm hoping to stop once I have a saff lol

You know what they so don't you "the only difference between men n boys is the price of their toys" lol

mentalistdave

there is loads of sites out there to buy parts from but nobody offers any saph parts as this has only just hit the market and i doubt anybody will. most parts are made for universal fitting like wheel exhausts etc...

there is also a few websites and facebook pages with the modders showing there stuff not that secretive really, just need to know where to look!!

once you start collecting and modding its addictive , i get at least 3 new models everymonth , lost count how many i have now, waiting for 6 new models to arrive this month and its only the 14th

Thanks for that info Dave I am kinda new to the modeling scene what I said was meant as a light hearted bit of banter I did email a few people but didn't get any replies which is always a little dis-heartening, with these Otto saphs they are resin so there's not a great deal you can do with the body, just want some comp style wheels for mine and it's gonna get a re-paint on the case for some wheels from ulinowak


Luciano

mentalistdave

i like these style on the saph,
uli has some nice rims but most are deep dish rims and dont always look realistic,
these are pics of a friends model with some resin wheels, i like the style and the way it sits, havent got my cossie's yet as i need to pic them up from my mates house.

Glenn_

iTrader: (1)

Looks mint that saff. Are they Evo 8 wheels.

Dave start a thread showing off your models.

mentalistdave

they are a resin wheel, volk 17" style.
most of my fords are boxed up in my loft as i moved house and need to decorate before they get a new display cabinet. i have 1 cabinet at the moment and its full of audi's,vw,porsche and a few fords, seing as this is a ford site i doubt people will be as interested in them.

Glenn_

iTrader: (1)

Looks mint that model.

Fil

seeing as most of us on here dont own a ford or have other makes dont let that stop you posting pics of the other makes


and the escort look the nutz!

Ive just had a email off the people on ebay are selling these models and they said they are waiting for a shipment of models to come, and as soon as they arrive in this country mine will be getting sent out using a 24hour delivery company.

Just got an email from ups looks like I'll be in the gang tomorrow

Glenn_

iTrader: (1)

Mi e was deliveres by ups too.

jason_nike

Keeping one standard, but the other 3 will be like this.
All glued up and drying now.
I was going to spray the first one Nouveux Red to replicate mine, but we will see.

cossiestu

Would love one of these but would have to match the colour of mine and, if I sprayed it, id ruin it!!
What's the best way to do it, airbrush, or a few built up coats from a rattle can? Also, do the wheels usually just click on an off?

Fil

two options, order the mk1 focus RS thats out in feb 2014 and rob its wheels

http://www.otto-models.com/index.php...=detail&id=236


Or email otto, and see if you can buy a set of the wheels from them seperatly

Glenn_

iTrader: (1)

Sounds like a good idea Fil.

Looks nice that focus rs.

Don't mind having a go at it Jimmy, just done 1/18's with rattle cans before and I lost some detail.... Never realised there was so many choices of accessories too, model kits and stuff have come a long way! Lol

B1N9S

Got this one up for grabs, if anyone is interested. Slightly modified, to correct the rear badge, lowered, 4" tail, UK plates and TAX disc. Everything is done in house by me, so absolutely a one off model.
