Newbie Yank here. I just found this site from a link on the Mad Max Movies site. I havent gone through it yet, but its obvious theres A LOT of cool stuff Ive missed. Ive seen some pics of Falcon modles elsewhere before, but now I see that an XC Cobra was released.
Who can give me a list of the Falcon models that have been released up to the 78? Including race versions.
Who has any for sale or knows of them for sale? Im looking preferably for 1/18.
Top of the want list would be:
XC Cobra street
Moffat XC
71 GTHO
GTHO race version(s)
73 XB GT (has one been made yet?)
Any other significant Falcon models Im not aware of?

Hi FalconGTHO! Welcome to the addictive world of Aussie model cars! I was once a sane English guy, but now I have an increasing number of 1:18 models appearing on every flat surface....
For models so far released go to the "FAQ" tab on the website and it lists pretty much everything you ask for. As they have been released for some time an are now sold out you will have to get these models from auction sites I guess, like sold.com or ebay but prices are getting steep on some...Good luck with that! For an XC Cobra, wait a while for the Option 97 Cobra to come out and you'll pay only the RRP.
Other Falcons include Moffat's "Federation Insurance" '79 Bathurst XC, the Brut 33 XB, '77 Championship winner and several XDs and XEs if you're into those. I'm guessing from your "want list" that you're into earlier rather than later Falcons, but all the top V8 Supercar Falcons are also modelled.
Finally, it's a matter of taste, but I'd say stick with Biante as they produce the best models - more accurate and better looking, plus reasonably priced! Have fun!

Oh yes, and there's the "Buy, Sell, Swap" section of the Biante website, for obsolete models, and prices might be a touch lower....
