1/18 Joy Ride RC2 ERTL Honda S2000 (The Fast & The Furious)

Hi all. If you carefully notice my old postings, then this gonna be my first time posting 1/18 street car. I do always try to exclusively collect 1/24 cars only because IMO its size is just perfect. Not too big to store and not too small for detail.

I love HONDA, in fact I drive one. I'm sure I can't be called its fans if I'm not fond of its convertible, S2000. The car is just lovable from every angle. It's even more adorable with its Veilside body kits. Well, as a '1/24 perfectionist', I've been searching for Veilside's S2000 and apparently I have no luck at all. It seems it hasn't been made in 1/24. The only way to go is by getting my hand on this 1/18 S2000 TFTF version made by ERTL, & labeled as Joy Ride.

Now, let's see how it looks like.

The front bumper was made accurately. Isn't it beautiful?!

It comes with detachable soft top.

The engine room is just the average of 1/18s.

NOS powered, as it's a drag car I guess.

Beautifully detailed interior.

I think it stands a lit bit too high than it supposed to be.

I'm happy to rate it 8/10.

Thanks for looking.

1/18 Hotwheels Batmobile Tumbler

Being a fan of Batman will not feel complete if this replica of Tumbler is absent from the collection. As it is my case, I was waiting for this car to be made in 1/24 but it's obvious that none of diecast manufacture is dare enough to put the 1/24 one into production. Luckily, Hotwheels's 1/18 Tumbler is so undersized and it's somewhere around 1:22.5 scale so I picked the Hotwheels one to fill up my Batman's collection =D

So here are the pics

Finished on semi gloss black color, very batmobilish.

The front wheels are oversized, no doubt.

Nice rubber wheels, great exhaust too.

Wild!

The canopy door can be half opened with a bit of effort =D

Considering its price, scale, and details, my rate for this car would be 9/10, well done Hotwheels!

Thanks for dropping by!

1/18 Autoart Honda Intergra Type R DC5

Here's the Honda Integra Type R from Autoart. This is a 1/18 scale model.
Details are sharp on this model.
Front end looks very good.
Very realistic rear end. The light clusters are also very well reproduced.
Very well detailed engine bay.
Realistic wheels. Disc brake spins independent from callipers.

This AutoArt gets a 8.5/10 rating from me. Sure, there are small imperfections, but as a overall package, this Honda is near perfection.
