Welcome
to Rudy's 1:18 scale world
Last updated on 05.11.2003
Hi and very warm welcome on my site!
Mostly this page is devoted to my hobby, collecting Die Cast Models. I began
doing this since my childhood. At the beginning I had my models in scale 1:43.
Those models were quite good detailed and
painted but they were too small. My
next models were in scale 1:24 - not bad I must say in comparison
with previous. But still I wasn't completely
satisfied. After all I've bought my first 1:18 scale model
it was a Ferrari 348 td Evoluzione
(1991).
Great, it was the model of my dream,
folly detailed engine, interior and many other
cool stuff. So the year 1994 was the
starting point of my enthusiasm for models in scale 1:18.
Today my collection isn't very big (about 40) and
mostly consist of models of such brands as
Bburago, Maisto
but not long ago some new opportunities appeared
such as AutoArt,
Kyosho, Sun Star, Exoto. I call them
new opportunities because in Ukraine I wasn't
able to buy products of this brands before.
By the way
my first model of AutoArt I've bought
in Prague in 2002.
I have some models of Motorbikes in scale 1:18.
Among them are Kawasaki, Honda, three
Harley-Davidsons, Yamaha, Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12 and
some others. Later I'm planning to place their photos
on this page.
Well that's all my story.
It's my first web site and of course it isn't perfect so if you have
found some problems please write me
