Default Question on F50 and F40

I was wondering if the 1/18 Bburago models for F40 and F50 are still in stock or are discontinued?? If not is there another brand? Thanks alot for your help.

Hey mazmazmaz1,
The company stoped producing those two models.. it is very hard to find.. I heard that some other company started to do the F40 not sure what is it called.. maybe someone will tell you latter..

If you seriously want the F40 and F50 you can always try ebay.

Just few I found on ebay.com

F40

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...908044501&rd=1

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...907250884&rd=1

F50

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...908241458&rd=1

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...906912693&rd=1

Just in case you want something very speacil.. F50 in chrome paint
very expensive but looks very nice..

Hot wheels is making the F40 again. The F50 is hard to find, but luckily I already have a Bburago F50.

Try ebay.com , you can find some models that are not in production right now , but paying a little more

I'm almost sure there is a red F50 in the model store I usually visit here in Lausanne! I don't like Burago models, but maybe it's a good investment since it's normally priced as far as I remember!

Actually that one is plated, not painted...there's a whole series of them, I think the company that makes them is called Gwilo and they take low-rent models from Maisto, Burago and the like and chrome plate them or gold-plate them or silver-plate them. Nice idea, not worth the extra dosh though.
