Whose collection is it? That's a lot of cars (and a fair amount of money, I would think).

This guy's collection:

http://kkwhung.topcities.com

An impressive write up on just about every imaginable detail on the 1/43rd McLarens from Minichamps can be found there.

I just get a suspended account message, Erik.

Pity, as I'm always looking for the 'definitive' guide to Minichamps 1/43rd F1s aka The Holy Grail!

kkwhung, of course! The 1:43 master. Good guy, a big poster on diecastxchange.com . That 'McLaren F1 GTR Prototype' LM in the upper right corner is looking pretty awesome there.

Its an impressive collection of course. But I cant say Id want it myself, even if I had the money.

Im happy with my Green 1:12. Would like to find a Ueno Clinic 95 car, but thats all.

I'd rather have a collection like that in 1:18. For some reason, 1:43 has never interested me.

1/43rd interest me from the standpoint that there's really nothing you can't get in that size. Of course I'm usually disgusted by the price your forced to pay for something that is smaller/less functional than my preferred 1/18ths, but a great 1/43rd collection like that is impressive to see and I can't say I wouldn't want it. I just don't want to pay for it.

look at this guys!

ive always wanted one, but the last one ended on 203.00£ (GBP) and i dont have enough! the photo prints look nice to have.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/McLaren-F1-LM-...QQcmdZViewItem

also this seller has 2 negatives, so im not sure whether to bid or not? im in 2 minds at the moment, as the price is tempting!!! does anybody have one in their collection? im willing to offer $5!! (joke)

by the way, this is my first post, hope i am welcome here.....

If you look at his 2 negatives they really don't look like anything serious - in fact one looks like he tried to buy from someone who was suspended from Ebay by the time the auction ended so he had no means of contacting the seller. I wouldn't let the feedback stop you in this case.
No, I didn't scroll through all his feedback - - there are various ways of pulling up just the negative ones.
