Wanted 1:18 or 1:24 models... die cast or kit set

Hi. I cannot find any models of AMG C, E or S class around where I live (New Zealand) so I am willing to buy from abroad.

Having searched this forum I find myself putting out this new thread for help please.

I don't mind kitset (eg. Tamiya) but my eye for detail means that I will evidently be hard on myself for imperfections, hence a die cast may be better suited.

I do love the "VIP" (22 inch) rims look but beggars cannot be choosers... all I want is an AMG model. can someone please point me right direction?

Thanks....

The X164 GLs are now harder to find since the model is now out of production. Luckily for you, they did make it in Cubanite Silver (European name for Pewter). Ignore the listing's color- they labelled it incorrectly.

Congrats and no worries! I've been collecting diecasts since 1998 so you've come to the right place to ask!
