John, love your presentation and the history that goes along with it. The details that are included are remarkable like the rear window wiper. Amazed at the value pricing.

Excellent review John. I received the green one about two weeks ago and in a sea of wonderful models, Sergio managed to create another work of art. Fifty years ago I never imagined I would see model cars with this kind of quality details and finish. Collecting 1/43 scale models today is something we could have never dreamt about back then. Thanks John for being a big part of helping us to learn about the magnificent models that are being built today.

@bob-jackman, I'm curious. Are you seeing the same improvement in quality that I am?

@jkuvakas Absolutely from resin to white metal from Brooklin and SMTS. It's a great time to be a 1/43 scale collector but hard on the wallet and display space.
