1:43 or 1:18????

MR Models do a nice hand built Dino in 1:43 if you are chasing something really special.

Found a few on eBay, just do a search for DINO and see what comes up.

If it's 1:18, join the queue of us waiting for decent Ferrari models! I suspect that Exoto will get round to making it, as they have the F40, F50, 250GTO and others in the pipeline. They'll be $300+ though!

ANSO made a few different colours in 1/18, a red one, yellow, and I believe a black one, (I do not have the black) plus a race/rally? one with #50 on it, no rear bumper, cover over the front lights and a different front, spoiler, no bumper.
IF YOU BUY ONE, MAKE SURE THE EXHAUSTS(CHROME)are with it.
These are rather sought after from memory.
good luck;)

I found one on ebay auction in germany, he wants 37 euro's for postage yet the model is only 2.50 euro at the moment.

The conversion rate on the postage is a real killer, does anybody know wether that is a normal postage rate from germany to here?

Hi Lukey, as before it depends whether your talking about 1:43 or 1:18. For a 1:43 it should only cost about 14 Euro from Germany without insurance or registered mail - but closer to Euro 30 if you want all the options.

If you only want 1:43, try Model Cars of the World in Melbourne - the have about 50 diffeent Dino's from Art Models, Bang, Corgi, Dinky, Matchbox, Mercury and Vitesse (typically averaging about A$ 50 - 60 each).
