  1. It is a pleasant surprise for sure.
  2. Once mine go in the display case the batteries are removed and likely forever at least by me. I don't want to mess up the model either. Some of the antique Pocher kits I built were designed for batteries that are no longer made. I didn't bother modifying them just to have lit headlights once. But that is me and I am a retired electrician. I don't play with my collection typically.
  3. I paid for my Porsche subscription(Pack7) on Dec 28 . That is two weeks today and not a word from Agora. I will be very glad when my two subscriptions are completed. These models are pricey so it makes no sense.
  4. The build looks great and the mods made a big difference. I need to go back to mine regarding the front wiring and like your idea.
  5. The other must have electric window with control likely on console.
  6. The top crank is the wing window, the lower crank is the driver's window, and the lever is the door opener.
  7. Are the models weight actually 1/8 of the original car? I did not think so. I wish the models were lighter than they are.
  8. Model building and communication is good for mental health and dexterity. I don't get out much but so modeling is great to do at home. I have only built cars and bikes but there are some other forms that are most interesting.
  9. LOL. Even better! Your pics made my day. Just perfect.😄
  10. Not that I plan to build either but I have this picture of Agoras classic bus next to the Eiffel Tower being offered by IXO. I realize one is London and the other Paris but both are icons.🙂
  11. I built a few 1/24 scale and plastic. They were a disaster.
  12. Correction. The MFH bikes are 1/9 scale. Their cars are 1/12.
  13. I have the Mercedes preordered from LaGrand. One day soon it will be shipped.
  14. Thanks for the info. I have too many aches and pains to be a bot.
  15. MFH makes some great classic bikes in 1/12 scale.
  16. I love the display and variety. The VW really pops. I love the color and have one in my collection.
  17. The several F1 1/20 metal models by Revival of Italian cars raced in the 1950s made a nice collection for me. They are beautiful.
  18. Here are a few Volvo sub-assembly pics. Over 900 pieces to complete build.
  19. I tried leaving a couple of "like" reactions today. I got a note stating that I cannot leave any more reactions today. Is it something I did or what? Franknstang
  20. I believe the Porsche has much better detail overall and especially under the hood. I felt the Super Snake while beautiful was a very easy build compared to other 1/8 scale model I have assembled. The Mustang is a great build for a first timer.
  21. The kitties brought you luck. 😀
  22. I keep my present driver in brand new condition, inside and out, but for the tires. But each to his own. Many folks thrive on patina. We are all different and that is the fun of a forum. Have fun.😁
