Nah. I have lots of other models. Most of them are 1-18. No 1/12 like you though. I’ll post some more later.

Easier to upload. For whatever reason the colour photos are too big to upload, even after I size them down.

Like you, mostly Autoart. A couple Kyosho and a few Ignition. I’ve also got a few Maisto and Buragos. Like you I started over 20 years. But I’ve always unboxed my models and kept them displayed.
When my kids were younger they would play with them (I can see the MG Man shake his head in disapproval). But I don’t fuss About that. A broken wiper blade here, broken door mirror there. Ain’t the end of the world.
I’m at the stage in life where my granddaughter plays with them sometimes.
But the favourite part of my collection are the GT-Rs. I’ll post them later.

I am yet to own an Ignition Model. But we appear to be similar. I have a fair assortment of Skylines as well.

I don't let anyone that isn't familiar with the models handle them.

The Ignition Models have some of the greatest detail. They are acrylic cast out of a mold The FC RX7 above is an Ignition. However there are no moving parts and not opening doors. It’s a static model. I’m saving up for a Datsun 510. They’re very expensive.

They manufacture some really good models, exclusively. I know of them all too well. One day hopefully soon.
