Do you know something about the Kopecký release, 2005 or 2006?
Even Josef Kopecký himself, the manager of the team and Jan's father, don't know where I can buy a scale model of the CRT-Škoda Fabia WRC.

CB COM have done a decal set/transkit for Kopecky's car in 1/43rd that would fit the Ixo Fabia WRC. Havnt seen the 07 release list for Ixo yet but seeing as usual they havnt delivered all the 06 catalogue yet will wait and see!

What do people who have bought models from Solido think of the 1:18 scale, versus Auto - Art 1:18....

I really like the quality of Auto - Art, but Solido are doing all the latest models in 1:18....

Would appreciate any thoughts, if you are / are not a fan of Solido...

In 1/43, Solido makes far not perfect models, so I wouldn't trust them in case of quality. Btw, it could be a good base model for transkits ;)

How does HPI rank as far as quality?

JB

Judging from one model I have (Impreza WRC2005), I must say HPI is much better than IXO and as good as Autoart. But WRC2005 is their first product, and I heard their second generations models (2006 models) are better than first generation. I'll see in couple days when I get my shipment.

If a model of the Group B Skoda 130 LR was to be made in diecast how many of you would be interested in adding them to your collection?

The reason I ask this is because I have been a fan of the car and I amtrying to get Abrex to make some

Quality on these cars is excellent. The only issue is that their 2005 Japan cars had tarmac spec wheels; i'm unsure what surface the Arai test-car ran but it might also have the same problem of not having gravel spec. But for the 2006 Monte car it looks great from the pictures i've seen.

HPI corrected that mistake in all 2006 models of Impreza, so Petter & Arai's car for Rally Japan and Arai's test car all have gravel wheels on the model. I am waiting for Arai's Rally Japan car to be available in the US....

I received shipment of HPI Impreza WRCs today. The model of Petter's Impreza WRC2006 from Monte was awsome looking with some fine details. But the other one, Petter's Impreza WRC2005 from Japan, wasn't so great to say the least.....

I guess HPI bolted the model so tight to the base that the bottom of the model cracked and split into half. I've never seen anything like this with any of the diecast model manufacturers. This is the worst defect of all :(

Has anyone got a contact email address for HPI Racing in the USA? Want to take advantage of the buy one get one free model offer but as I live in the UK I cant get the order page to accept my order. Am happy to pay extra for shipping but sent them an email a month ago and didnt get a response. They cant have all been at the beach that long....

Finally got a response from Hpi and they wont supply to the UK so will wait for the Autoart version of 06/07 Impreza which will probably be as good and certainly cheaper!

Been busy buying Ixo recently their Nissan 240RS knocks Sparks into a cocked hat also added the San Remo Pond Sunbeam Lotus, Panizzi Fabia WRC, and also the special Japan Lancia owners San Remo 89 Delta 16v. From Trofeu/Minipartes also got the Makinen Lancer Evo1v Portugal winner.

Advance news from Spark is that they are going to release a Mazda 323 Group A car and also a Nissan 200SX and Toyota Supra which are going to fill the gaps nicely.

I take it that is the UK arm Mark? They were a bit retiscent about supplying me and referred me back to my normal wholesalers. Am not sure I could shift enough of their units at the retail price they are pitching thier models at in the UK. I'm think the extra £10 or so premium over Autoart etc may not be viable to all but the diehard collector.

Can someone post how good the different makes are?

I have had trofeu, skid, vitesse and ixo models before but how do autoart compare? and is the ixo junior range not so good I am presuming? :s

After being tempted for aaaaaaaaages I might start collecting some models again you see :D But just the ones that I really really like :up:

Well, for me AutoArt models are very nice more or less like a Minichamps one; I have only one, the Xsara WRC (but it has been trasnformed on a Pons' Xsara, look at the attached photo).

Under my point of view the best companies are HPI, Minichamps, AutoArt, Bizarre and Trofeu (ordered by quality and also for price, but nowadays you can find really cheap AutoArt models). But they don't have many different cars.

Ixo is pretty good, and the price is not so high as a Trofeu one, here in Barcelona I pay for them about 30 euros. But Ixo Junior has the same quaility as an old Altaya. The car, viewed inside, is all black, I mean it has any seat-belts, clocks... and I can't remember any rally car painted in black inside. Moreover Ixo Junior cars don't have radio anthens, but they are very cheap, about 15 euros.

Just received the special Ixo boxset celebrating Ford's WRC manufacturer title last year. It includes Grönholm's car from Sweden and Hirvonen's from Finland and is package in a special cover in the Ford and BP colours that were on the 2006 cars. Annoying, although it is a limited edition of 1200 models, the plate does not say what number this one is.

Also, this days I'm working on my website, exclusively dedicated to my die-cast collection, in the way to give a little bit of historic information and bigger photos (as shown upper). I'm doing monographic pages to all the rally cars that I have in my collection that ran in a WRC event. By now are only avaible the 2007 and the 2006 season, and the Monte-Carlo Rally from 2005. You can get to this pages clicking on the photo from the car, and if there are other cars from this rally in my collection, you can visit them clicking on the "GO" icon.

Is that Delta S4 a 1/18 or 1/43 model, feresc13?

sal

1st November 2007, 12:19

HPI models are 1/43rd. Very good detail but your are paying approx £10 retail more than Ixo or Minichamps. I've just got the Sanremo 86 Delta twin set which has got the Cerrato Totip car as above with lamp pod and the Alen Martini car. I'll post a picture later.

sal, I was looking at the HPI website yesterday. Are their models as good as they claim to be? From where did you get that S4 twin-set?

sal, I was looking at the HPI website yesterday. Are their models as good as they claim to be? From where did you get that S4 twin-set?

IMO absolutley! Their 05 and 06 Impreza WRcs have the right body/arch extension widths and look so much better in profile than Ixo and Autoart's offerings. At first I thought their Lancia 037 looked a bit odd but when re-visiting it is just perfect and they even go to the extent of using the correct wheel rim design as 037's very rarely ran the same style of rim back and front (especially the Jolly Club). As for engine transmission detail it's spot on and as I believe their cheif designer was recruited from Kyosho you can perhaps understand why

I got Delta twin set from EWA in the States but did so as was taking advantage of the strong £ to $ rate and had a reasonable sized order from them to negate the import duty I had to pay. If you look at Ebay in the States (a lot of HPI stuff on there) and the seller sends as a gift on the Customs form you should get a cracking deal.

HPI now have a distributer in the UK however the recommended selling price for a single model is between £29-£35!

They have some great releases planned looking at the website even though like most Jap manufacturers they seem obsessed by Lancia! Especially looking forward to the 92 Monte Deltona of Auriol.

2nd November 2007, 18:17

No problem! Just remember there will be import duty to pay as EWA dont include it in the carriage.

As we were talking about Duval running in Ixo colours on the Condroz in a Punto S2000 seen on another thread this picture so watch out for a future release from them!

As long you look only on the Outside of the Models, yes !
The Inside is only poor, look at the Dashbpoard:

I have four HPI Impreza's, and I must tell you that you have to be careful choosing one for youself. Their details are awsome but I think their quality varies model to model. I had some problem with building qualities for HPI models like: spilled glue which completely fogged headlight lens, about 5mm hair (or dust looks like hair) trapped in the paint, broken paint, and shuttered chassis!!!

Lol! I always display my models " de constructed"!

You would be hard pushed to see the dash detail thru any Group B 1/43rd scale side window.

As for variable quality Koko perhaps I've been lucky as all the Hpi models that have passed thru my hands have been far better than any Ixo Minichamps and Trofeu but then at £10 more perhaps that is to be hoped.

1:32 scale is larger than 1:45.

1:1 = actual size
1:2 = half the actual size

Your Focus Collection is really impressionant!! I don't have 127 Focus WRC, of course, but I think that is the model with more entrings in my collection, really closed to the Citroën Xsara (WRC + KitCar versions)

Hi all,
I'm new to this forum so i take a little time to introduce myself.
I'm 35 years old and i'am fond of rally models, this is why i introduce myself in this section.
I collect loeb's cars, xsara models, and i try to get one model from each rallycar since 1994.
To complete my collections and to help other collectors, I realise some personnals models with decals made by myself. Some of my models can be seen upper (wilks and mikkelsen focus).
If some of you have ideas to help me to complete my collections, and if i can help some of you, just let me know.....
Sebastien, Miniaseb.

Hello,
Thanks for your congratulations.
To answer to your question, yes, of course, i can sell you these decals (or complete models if you want- i still have bases); about your request for S.LOEB decals, i still didn't realise them but i will, because i want to collect all the Loeb's victories. So, I will be able to help you soon.

I think you live in spain, so i think you can help me to find pictures to realise some xsara from spain. I saw some pictures from kit cars (a grey winston with 2 versions red or blue decals) that i'd like to realise, but these pictures are not good enough. Do you know some spanish website where i can find rally pictures ?

Sebastien, Miniaseb.
