I just love the quality of this brand. I have the Holden Torana and Ford Falcon in 1/18th scale and really enjoy the detail and quality they have.

Those are awesome cars, I prefer them in 1:64 scale as well. Reminds me a lot of Autoart.

Thanks for the photos rob....they are very nice indeed. Do they concentrate mainly on imports?

Mostly. They do carry other diecast brands like Autoart and Kyosho. I have only looked for and bought Australian cars. Most U.S. made cars are available here so even though the quality of Biante cars is good I couldn't see paying three times as much for say a Ford GT that I could get from J.L.
If you do place an order with them the first order I made had to be done with a western union wired payment. It was a pain in the tush. After the first one I was able to use a credit card.

Biante is an Australian brand - & Australian cars . They are made by Auto Art . The boxes have both names on them ... I have several in 1/64 , 1/43 & 1/18 scale . Love the 60's & 70's Falcon GTs ... Here are some pics of my 1/18's ..

I don't remember seeing AutoArt on the 1/64 boxes. I thought they were manufactured by Biante Minicars. I thought AutoArt just did the 1/18 and 1/43 cars. Interesting. So AutoArt makes them and Biante slaps on their label?

A few people carry them, we have them from time to time. After paying to get them over here, they end up $15 cars though

They make some of the nicest 1/64 I have ever seen, let us know if you get any more of these in, wouldn't mind adding one to the collection.

I looked at my 1/43 cars... They have Auto Art on the box . The 1/87 cars just say 'Produced for Biante' on the box - not who made them ..

I looked at some of my other 1/64 and on the one AutoArt box I have it does have Biante on it, but none of the Biante niniCars have AutoArt on them...
