I added these two models to my collection early last year. As these models go, the acquisition price is usually very steep. I picked these up for what I considered, very reasonable at the time. They both arrived in excellent condition, although the hardtop was a bit dirty. Some cleanup and a new set of whitewall tires made it all right. The convertible just needed a shine, it's a beauty.

The 1954 Buick Century Riviera Hardtop was issued by MCUSA-Design Studio Series and is in Condor Yellow & Carlsbad Black -- the Century Convertible was issued by MCUSA-American Models Series and is in Matador Red.

Great models, but I just never cared for those "teardrop headlight bezels"  nor those "taillight pimples."  1955 & '56 Buicks look so much better to me.

Very nice. I sometimes think about trying to buy one of these to fill a void in my set of Buicks ranging from 1941 to 1964, plus the 1970 GSX.  I am not yet willing to spend that much money for a single model. Maybe someday. 
For now, I will enjoy looking at your models. As always, thanks for pictures.
