My question about resin was prompted by seeing BBR’s 250 GTO in 1:18
Like others around here I've been watching for a high-end maker to do this car. But, somehow, I was not surprised to see it come out in resin.
Seems so many recent releases of the subjects that appeal to me have been resin . . . is that the future of precision models?

George, I have one of these BBR 250 GTO 'Press Day' models, and....
I'm extremely happy with it. Yes it is curbside, but it has great detail and is beautifully finished, and very limited too.

Totally support what you say, Marshall

BBR Fan ....and Kyosho
Have been considering the BBR 250 but have the Kyosho diecast "highend" diecast 250 cars (3 vent model) which I think are a real bargain and have a very high level of detail.

I have it by Kyosho (2-vent) and like it a lot but I'd sure like to see what CMC would do with it!
