Die Cast Models

Hey guys just wanted to bring this to your attention. The die cast model company Auto Art will be producing a 67 Cosmo 110. For those of you not familiar, Auto Art is a high end model company that takes great pride in their work, and their work is outstanding. I don't know any details on when it will be released but I happened to see it when browsing for an RX-7. Enjoy

i'll have to try to remember this. traditionally, i'm a diehard Bburago-guy, but since this is the closest i can get owning a Cosmo, why not?

Bburago and Maisto are great brands for the price but Auto Art goes above and beyond on all counts. Yeah they are $60-$100 for a simple model but the attention to detail is absolutely phenomenal
