I'm sure I'm not alone in collecting miniatures. For me it's the only way to have 1 of every kind of Porsche. I've chosen 1/18 scale to collect over the 1/43 just cause they're bigger & more detailed. I'm at the point where I want/need exotics... 718RSK, RS60-62, 907, 908L/ 908/3, 909, 916, & not so exotic, 928, 944... oh yea & some tractors.

Thoughts?

I have some models from Exoto... 910, 934 (Brumos), 935 (martini), 917/30(Donohue) and some minichamps 924, 904, 906, 962 (Rothmans), as well as some cheapies...914, 550rs, 550rsk, 356 type 1, 356B cab, 917(mcQueen), 911S, 911RS, 911gt3, LM GT1, 996 turbo, 993 turbo, 911 cab, 986 car show edition, and a bunch more....

It is frustrating to wait for the "new releases" as they never seem to come....when they do, a bunch of cheap copies flood the market as well.....Exoto (the nicest quality) seems to flog the same models in different liveries and never makes the next car on the list! (a 908/3 has been planned forever) I'd like to see a 936 too! urrently waiting on a 951 amongst others....sometimes I just want to bail out of all of them....good luck collecting.
