DM Boss 429 compared with H61 Boss 429
I noticed when viewing the 1/18th Highway 61 Boss 429 Mustang from above, and doing the same for the DM 1/24TH VERSION, the H61 version is either longer or skinnier. Someone mentioned proportion issues a few days ago here or on the 1/18th site. Just wonder if they noticed this or anyone else noticed this. The Highway 61 version has quite a bit of detail and feels quite heavy for the price.

The H61 Cars are highly detailed, half the Price, and more for your Money, than the 1:24 Cars !

Half the detail too. I just received my DM.....
...Boss 351 1971 Mustang. I also have the AutoArt 1971 Mach 1. I love my AutoArt Mustang, but no way does it come CLOSE to the detail of the DM. The extra money for the DM is more than justified with the extraordinary detail that comes along with it. The AutoArt is very nice, the DM is breathtaking.

Amen to that. MJD

I totally agree. You get what you pay for. LOL!
I have a GMP Orbit Orange GTO and while it is nice, it just doesn't have the detailing and quality of the DM pieces. I especially dislike the plastic chassis.
