Just a question to those of you who own 1:12s... apart from the larger size is the 1:12 detailed better than the equivalent 1:18s if you already have one?

Wow, that looks great Evo.
I assume you are talking in USD when you said it cost $410?

sameerrao, yeah they are much more detailed thant he 1:18 scale. I can see the cooling fans of the lambo from the back which is located behind the back grill.. I don't see that on the 1:18.. The interior is much better and everything got it's own texture.. I really like this one a lot.. It's well worth the money you pay .

dingo22, that's US Dollers..

I though no body would notice it..lol.. It's almost ready to get painted I finished sanding it with 400 sand paper.. Now I need to sand it with 600, then it will be ready for paint. And don't ask how many layer.. I will stop when It will looks good that's either after 1 coat or 10000 .
