Did you ever see an old diecast that was so pooly done (and ugly) that you wouldn't buy it?
Saturday I saw a Majorette (?) Audi Quattro Coupe in 1/64 (?)
At first I was excited about finding the car. But the more I looked at it the worse it was. (ugh)
I finally just left it behind.

I have on a 1/18 scale car. Manufacturer was Sun Star I think. Can't remember the car. At first I thought it looked pretty cool but the more I looked at it the worse and worse the detail started to look.

isn't this the same problem with current HW designs ??? :D

no, seriously speaking, at my local WM (well not so local since i have to drive about 10 minutes to get there) i've seen quite a few times this line of 1:64 diecast called "motor max" (Wanna-be oldies) which from far look awesome but as you grab them and start inspecting them, details look like crap :confused:
(i have a couple of their 1:18's which are quite good)
