1/24 Jada 2010 Ford Mustang GT

Finally got this baby at long last. Saw this one on eBay some time back, but shipping here would cost a bomb. Went to Summit today. And by luck this was there, and there was a discount that came with it. I was kinda indecisive between this color and the black. Decided that the red/maroon would look better.

Love the new 2010 'stangs' front end. The newly redesigned headlights is beautiful. On the Jada, it is very well replicated.Another view of the front. Side signal in place, not messy.
Front and rear wheels. ==" The wheels are HUGE. And very deep. I only wished that this was the stock wheels, as Jada did on the GT-R and the Camaro.
Side view. Those monster wheels are, somehow, growing on me~
Three quarter rear end view. look at how wide the wheels are.
Rear view. Love the lights here. Pity there's some minor paint chips on the matt black part.
Interior shot. Decent. Love it.
Engine shot. Strut bar was not on the 2005 model though. Love that inclusion.

Wow, even the boot opens ! Nice touch~

I'd give this a 8/10. Safe for the rims, which could score a 9/10 from me. But what the heck, this looks really good. loving it every second.

1/24 Jada 2006 Mustang GT Battle Machine

Shipped it from US down to Melbourne for about AUD 35. I was curious about this Jada's Battle Machine line so I was so eager to get it. I thought I would get a nice replica of Death Race's Mustang, in fact, this model is really like a toy with those ridiculous rocket launchers. But still, it's a must-have-Mustang-diecast for Mustang lover.

Nice dirt effect on well painted matt body color

So wild looking from the side

Watch out the rockets. Look, nice emblem there.

Again! Rockets spotted! Argghh..

The interior. A bit plain & boring.

It's just so tidy for a 'death car wannabe' car LOL

A not bad diecast by Jada.

I would rate 7/10

Thanks for looking.

1/24 Maisto Ford Mustang GT 2006

I've been hunting for this model for quite a while already, and when my friend found it for me, I was really ecstatic.
Here's the front view. Looks quite good with the lowered body..
Also looks good from here. Studs/stems are not too obvious.

Rear view. Exhaust unpainted, but the rest looks fine.
Side view. Door gaps are a wee bit too large, but then it's no big deal.
Wheels are pretty well done, but pity there are no brake details. Even the Ford logo can be seen clearly.
Interior detailing is so-so. Nothing to shout about. Love the silver accents.
Here's the Mustang's V8. I respect Maisto for the smallest decal in the engine bay, Well done.

Overall, I'd give the Mustang a 7/10 rating. I do suspect that the Revell (plastic) have better details.
