One of the best reviews I’ve read in a while. Very informative and very well written. A lot of detailed information provided that a novice like myself is very appreciative about. If anyone thinks about getting into collecting 1/18 die cast, then this is the person to follow (Zakk Grier has an epic 1/64 collection, great to follow him for those). Keep up the good work, it’s well worth the read
This was my second model from TopMarques and it was also my last. Same experience as yours: my car’s brake rotors were detached, yet the wheels were still on. How does that even happen?! For manufacturer that asks for such a high price, they better back it up. It’s a shame too because they make great cars, like the Noble M600 and Alfa Carobo
I rarely read articles on models but this one attracted my attention. I never realized models were so expensive, and then to think that the manufacturers will knowingly ship you bad quality.
I've really wanted to get some of the Top Marques models (ken block hoonicorn and the Lancia stratos zero) because no one else makes these. Between your review and Scott saying he found globs of hot glue in places im just going to have to wait.
Don't let these guys ruin Resin for you ;) You should find something by Spark to make you realize the potential.

Wow. That's bad. Sounds like a good time to get into customizing tho.
i can’t say I don’t like the idea of a de-winged version of this with a set of front turbofans and BBS wheels :)

This is a very risky hobby. Proceed with caution.
