I have 5-6 Alfa's and 2 Talbot's, they are very compatible in size.

The Alfa may be a bit longer though, the 1:1 Alfa has longer hood too.

I have 2 Alfa's and 3 Talbot's. The Alfa's are about 1/4 inch longer.

The Talbot is similar in size to a Bugatti Type 57 SC Atalante.

OMG, 2 of my holy grail cars ...

Black Talbot and the B&G Atlantic!

Dan, is this a blue 1934 Packard on the second shelf, color sample?

I did not see the white Avanti, it was sort of hidden in the corner of the last picture.

Great to know that there are more blue Packards, I thought mine is maybe the only one.

Dan & Chav thanks kindly for that. I guess I thought the Talbot was a bigger 1:1 then it really was.

Who makes that black Bugatti? Do doors open, diecast or resin? Beautiful model
