My 1:43 collection of fast baby benzes

I just acquired a 190E Evolution II die cast model to complete my 1:43 scale collection of fast baby benzes (the hottest version of each generation). I always loved the 190E Evolution II with its distinct body work and big *** wing!!

See pics below for a limited Mercedes Benz product (very pricy), where you get a nice stand and a fine collection of 1:43 scale silver models of the C36, C43, C32, C55, and C63.

The link you see on the pics also has in stock some silver and black models of those cars individually too, so check it out.

The silver C55 looks awesome too!

Now I'm itching to start a 1:43 collection too. This will not be good for my wallet. Being hooked to collecting blurays is already bad as it is

About a year ago I spent a long time looking for a 1:18 model C55 to match my Viper GTS 1:18, but unfortunately never found one. I don't think one was ever made. I did find other models for the C32 as well.

Looks like it's sold out now. Anybody from this forum who bought it?


All I can find now is the C55 station wagon:

Well as an update, I received a refund because he said he sold the last ones in store So I guess my search continues. I asked the seller if he was going to get any more since there were a few of us on here that probably wanted one.

BTW, that station wagon one is hot! I did not know it existed.

allcarmodels.com seems to have the c55 in black

http://www.allcarmodels.com/acm/SPAS1045.html

Edit: Ordered one. We'll see if it comes!

Edit 2: Another idea is to get it done custom: http://www.factorydirectmodels.com/mm5/merchant.mvc? I might be willing to pay a bit more for the proper state's license plate with my vanity plate on it. hmm.
