Yes, $45 is an INSANELY good deal. BEcause these are worthless 2022 dollars, worth much less than the 1990-95 dollars I spent buying Buragos 1:18 for $20-25, and those POS's had NO rear opening doors (for 4 door models) and very few of them had opening engine and trunk (I tried to order cars who had 4 openings, as the rear doors never opened like in this model). In addition, the Mulsanne is an enormous car and the 1:18 scale probably weighs TWICE than a 1:18 Miata Or -even Civic does. I remember once I ordered a supoosedly 1:18 ROlls Silver Cloud, and I returned it right away, not because it had any flaws, BUT because 1. it was NOT 1:18, the cheapskates made it in an odd 1:20 ration, and 2. NOTHING opened except the two front doors.
Rastar's Mulsanne is the best bang-for-buck diecast model out there. Their attention to detail for $45ish is insane. But while the detail-level is great, Rastar models suffer from plenty of quality control issues - like the headlight glass not sitting properly on almost all their mulsanne models. Yours also had panel gaps on door and window issues (which is why buying this in black is better than the champagne color, as it helps hide the gaps), while my 1st model that I sent back and exchanged had scratched up windows, and the 2nd one that I now have still has one scratch across a tail light and slightly uneven rear deck area. On the other hand bburago/maisto have far fewer detail but usually good quality control. Thanks for the review.
I like your reviews & collection! I am just starting to collect 1:18 scale diecast cars and this one for the money seems hard to beat. There are several out there on eBay but not sure which would be the best to buy it from, looks like they all come out of China, I'm in the US. Thx.
Sorprende el detalle por 45 dólares....una buena alternativa para no gastar los 200 a más dólares que cuestan los Kyosho o Autoart pero con más calidad en acabados.
Just saw this on ebay for a decent price and I said let me see if u reviewed it and there it is...lol. Been doing muscle cars starting my collection but looking at this one I might start a luxury car collection as well thanks for the review as always 🙂.
ExternalStar I know there are only 3 colors blue white and grey! Also I think it's quality isn't good. How do you think will be there black or another color? Do you have this kind of information about it?
ExternalStar OK, thank you very very much I hope you will get more much subscribers cause you're deserve it! You are great about model cars I watched your all videos! Also are you American?
Ich finde das das Video nicht berücksichtigt das das Model eine preiswerte altanative Möglichkeit an so ein gutes Model zu kommen. Habe mir auch dieses Model gekauft und muß sagen meine Spaltmaße waren besser als das was hier gezeigt worden ist. Ich bin mit diesen Modell zufrieden.
jep. beim preisschild bei der alternative von minichamps kannst dir nur an den kopf greifen, auch wenn er bessere Felgen und das schöne B als Kühlerfigur hat.
I can get a brand new 1:18 Bentley Mulsanne, which looks far nicer mind you, for US$148. So clearly, you are incorrect in saying that usually a model like yours would cost over US$200. The one I can get is a model made by GT Spirit, which has far better attention to detail and less quality control issues. Do your research. Other than that your review was fantastic. I’m really Looking forward to your next video
