GMP diecast

[dinkles]

Does anyone out there collect GMP diecast in 1:18 scale?
I have been looking at a few models here on the net and they appear to be of a high standard(detail etc.)
I would like to know what collectors think of these models- is it worth the money to purchase these and add to my collection?
The Pontiac Judge is the most likely candidate , also the soon to released Ford Fairlanes(North American versions) are they really worth $200+?

I collected the first six of the turbo Buick models, and I thought they were pretty good, and they were reasonably priced in US dollars too. Quality appeared good and, certainly with the Buicks, they captured the stance pretty well too.

Sadly, three of them just got culled and returned to their boxes and stashed in the loft to make way for my Moffat-Bond 1-2, and my girlfriends growing Mopar collection ... :)

All the best

I personally own three models produced by GMP. First a 1966 Lola T-70 Can Am car, a 1969 Chevrolet Nova SS396, and a 1970 GTO Judge in "Orbit Orange". The quality and workmanship has steadily increased throughout GMP's existence. The GTO's they have done are outstanding. I would expect the new Fairlanes to be a step beyond the GTO in terms of detail.
