1/18 FERRARI F40 Comparison - BBR vs KYOSHO vs AB Models 

Rob, just want you to know that I really enjoyed your review. I don't think that I have ever seen such a comparison before. Bravo 👏

Fantastic video Rob! I was already very happy with my AB F40, but it helps to see the specific strengths and weaknesses of each brand of model. Please do more of these detailed side by side comparisons in the future.

Very detailed comparison, you put so much effort here, thanks Robs.

After watching your video and a recommendation from a friend I bought the AB models (possibly the last one that was for sale). Happy with the purchase! Thanks for the great reviews!

Looking forward to this video Rob 👍🏻

another awesome upload and nice collection you got there

I went with BBR for the color, the dark metallic blue. My only complaint, and it is with all BBR models, is the tires. I wish it had AB levels of details on the tires. Everything else was fine. The engine could be better, but not a huge complaint. I also like the dip in the wing. Not sure why some F40s have them and other don't, but I like seeing it on the model. One thing I don't like on the AB is the brakes. They look very different from any set of brakes I see on the real car. On display, a metallic blue F40 just wins everyday. The F40 is not a favorite, but the BBR model is one of my favorite models to display for all to see.

Big fan of your channel. Happy to hear you are getting a supercar but disappointed the reviews are ending. I didn't really have any exposure to AB models but this helps me decide about future purchases (bought an AB today in fact). Have heard many negative comments about BBR's quality and customer service as well. Doubt I'll ever purchase a BBR. Good luck with your supercar search.

Thanks for the objective review rob! I'm so glad I have the AB models version!

I really loved watching this video. I totally agree with Rob's verdict and I am glad to be a proud owner of an AB F40!!!!

Great review, i was under the impression that bbr were the best available, but ive never owned one, they always seemed very expensive, so this review means a lot, i dont think I've heard of ab models, as most of us dont have other models of the same car to judge the best, this video helps so much,

Thanks for this useful review, Rob! I have both Kyosho and BBR F40s and thought out of the two, I must have at least one of the most accurate and best models out there. But I’m in dismay that they’re both not the most accurate and that I should have gotten the AB Models, and now it’s no longer available.

Excellent comparison review which helps me in my decision making process before buying although the AB is sold out, but considering the anniversary offering even though, I'm not a fan of the decals on it.

perfect comparison👌

GREAT VID

i'm a fan of kypsho but this AB i think might be the winner for me

Looks soooo niceee

Brought the AB model after watching your review mate ! Very detailed model indeed👍🏻

Now take the "winner" of this 3 and put side by side with the diecast Kyosho version

Great video, be interesting to see how the D&G F40 compares

AB models hands down, after all, it's an Amalgam. Very disappointing to see how inaccurate the BBR version is, for me, I can't get over how the inner turn signal and headlamps don't look correct at all. Looks like a cheap model compared to what BBR is usually capable of doing. They need to go back to the drawing board with their F40. Bravo to the AB models F40. I'm so lucky I was able to get my hands on one. It's truly stunning.

Great video. Also, the logos on the AB are waaaay better.

been looking for an f40 for a while,looks like ill have to wait till an AB comes up on ebay

just received my f40 by ab models 14/100 pieces, this model is definitely more superb than the kyosho high end resin.

The more you look at it the more flaws you notice on the BBR. For example, the upper horizontal "bezel" around the rear mesh has too much of a bend upwards if you know what I mean. It should be more square.

AB Models FTW !

AB models hands down for me mate!

Это одна из моих любимых моделей!

Do you have any videos on how to remove wheels from a diecast model? Such as an autoart brand?

I think AB wins

has he announced the winner of the five away ?

I've got the AB F40 60th anniversary edition, just wondering would that be possible to remove the decals without damaging the paint? Is there a clear coating on top of the decals?

I agree with the classification, but honestly bbr did not made a good job on F40, the shape of the body its not good! Excellent job to the AB (I'm pretty sure that's is the same the amalgam) and Kyosho!

The ab models is realy Nice and almost perfect , except the brakes ( lm track pack , Some real cars have them )and seatbelts need to be black instead of red . My model has a small defect on the rear bumper but the real car is not perfect either Number 76/100 but Im realy happy to have one .

Did AB models make any other colors for the F40 besides red?

Coooool. My AB came with a slight wave in the rear screen near the taillight making it look crooked. 😕 AB f40 #92

You should do at least one Corvette model review

AB wins even BBR completely. 1. AB 2. BBR 3. kyosho

Why are closed models more expensive then the one where you can open all? They are much closer to the original

I'm really jealous to those of you who got the first batch of AB F40, I had to get the one with decals and now I'm working on removing them! took me a few hours to remove one but it looks just great without them...

The BBR’s shape is off, it just doesn’t look correctly proportioned and it’s too blocky, especially from the rear.

would have been a better differentiator if you had photos of the the real thing among the three..

Next time, you could put pictures of the real car next to the pictures of the scale models: it would cost nothing and I'm sure it would be much much appreciated.

U really should get more colors of the F40 besides red yellow is start

Secondo me quella più dettagliata è AB MODELS

I'm disappointed in BBR

Già metto mi piace perché la f40 è la mia ferrari preferita da sempre

Why not open the the hood to look at the motor, consider to give value for the pop up lights on the Kyosho etc? Allt details all in? Was exspecting a better review from the beginning at the video...

are you blind??? AB too small taillights,Chrome @ the wheels looks ridiculous...the only F40 that looks authentic over all is the Kyosho
