Kyosho Bentley Picture Heavy; 1/64 Bentley

First I would like to send a sincere apology to the Garage for the pic heavy thread I am starting. I got carried away to say the least. To me, this was until now my most anticipated 1/64 Diecast release and I am ecstatic. Now hopefully Rolls Royce will get onboard. The Lamley group has shown the Supersports, so Im going to focus on the Larger ones. Please LMK if I need to remove because of its size. Enjoy


The Arnage

Again, I apologize to the Mods for all the pics. I have to retake the Flying Spur pics as I accidentally deleted these pics as well. Also the Flying Spur and GT3 are the only ones with rolling issues in my batch. All the rest roll perfectly. Hope you enjoyed.

Thanks for the pictures! Given how stunning these models are, I don't blame you for the large amount of images!

My personal favorite out of the bunch is the GT3, but they all look great!

Thanks for posting!

Finally, I just noticed this, but you managed to acquire the N-Attack GT-R!! There are no words to describe how much I want that model in my collection! Congrats on that buy as well!

Nothing wrong with picture heavy. Those are all gorgeous. I especially like the image of the Mulsanne next to the GL Ram.

In that same picture what is the silver car to the right, Rabbit, Fiesta?

Wow, I am in awe. And there's no problem posting all the pictures you want, especially when they look that good. I figured the GT3 probably wouldn't roll very well, it seems the race cars are the worst culprits when it comes to Kyosho. After the GT3, I was probably most excited about the Arnage T and Turbo R. After seeing your pictures, I think the Mulsanne I now might be anticipating even more, I love how big that sucker is. My set still hasn't shipped yet, as I'm waiting on one last Tomica to get released before it heads my way, thank you for tiding me over until they get here.

That's a Kyosho VW MkI Golf GTI (Rabbit here in the US).

Great shots, I always like seeing the variety of your collection.

The four sedans I ordered from the set arrived yesterday, and I can confirm that the Flying Spur doesn't roll well. The front wheels roll nicely, but the rear ones rub up against the casting. It's unfortunate since I was looking forward to it the most, but the sheer excellence of the Mulsanne and Arnage definitely make up for it. All in all, lots of contenders for the Model of the Year polls.

Thanks JeepxLover. I really Appreciate it! Ben is correct, its a Kyosho VW MkI Golf GTI (Rabbit here in the US). I've had it forever. I'll take some pics of it to show soon. Yeah I wanted to show how big it is, Im glad the pic next to the Ram is a good size reference. If you have a Hitch and Tow Enclosed trailer, it just fits in there. The door on mine broke which is why I didn't take that pic.

Ben, you will not be disappointed when they arrive. They don't disappoint one bit!

I will buy some of these beauties. Can you repost the picture with Brookland Minichamps and Azure Kyosho?
I have the Brookland and want to see if there is any difference in size.

Thank you :)
