Drift King's AE86 Diecast

I collect diecast models of my favorite cars so I'm always looking to see what car I should add next. These 1/43 Ignition Models are highly detailed resin models that are pretty high in price.

This one especially (You can find this particular scale model on sale on eBay for around $500). Below are pictures of a signed Keiichi Tsuchiya Ignition scale model of his famous white and green 86:













I definitely won't be buying this one (because $500) but I thought this was cool and wanted to share.

Btw, the wheels on Ignition Model diecasts don't roll.

That's why I'm making my own in 1/18



That's a custom front bumper and machined all metal deep dish wheels. Gonna get lowered and I'll probably slap some Nitto decals on the tires. The engine is gonna look like this

Sweet. I don't have the patience to do any of that stuff so I think that's awesome.

By the way, $500 is just a vastly inflated ebay price. Their 1:43 models retail for around $120-150 and the 1:18 models go for $200-250. Check actual model car retailers.

Ckmodelcars.de
Carmodelz.com
Unusual43.hk (I think)

Let me know if you need more.
