Nice collection! I haven't looked to see what colors they have (other than the ones flipside posted links too) did you get a Pearl Blue one from Autoart?

Edit: noticed only Yellow, Flat Black and whitest white on the site.


Just FYI, what they really mean on the website is that they are pre-ordering for batch deliveries. Apparently they will take orders and ship them all out at some time in the future (I waited about 2 weeks for mine). I know a lot of people got them in shipments before mine as well.
Thank you, great information as I did not know that. I appreciate it gengar and will make sure my wife knows just to order when ready

AutoArt is one of the better Diecast makers . I have an AM V8 Vantage, IS350, and LS460 by them. Very nice models
