TimeOut - Thanks for the insight luc

Thanks for the insight luc

I definitely did not know that about the models not being simple scaled down. I had always thought they would be more real that way.

Indeed the MR Models are so much better, but as you said not exactly healthy for the wallet, therefore i am limited to buy only usually models that reflects what i would want in a car in real life. The Colour does play a huge role in my decision though! ( As you can see i probably only have Midnight Blue cars!) Thus reflecting what my garage would look like if i had that sorta cash in reality

Hah, they are so wrong those journalists! On the other hand i hardly would buy a car magazine if the car on it is as you put it, "prostitutingly" red , orange. Put a blue car, especially the right shade and you see me grab that issue! I was very happy when ( I think it was Cars) used a Dark blue metallic Porsche 911 ( the current new one) for their road test.

Well, as they say in this world, Majority wins, so im definitely in the minority.

Hi Stephen, I hope you are still enjoying your new toy cars in blue! In the city in Germany where I live there is celebrated a so-called "Blaue Nacht" each year in May. Obviously the ancient city center is illuminated with blue lights which gives a specia...

As a man who loves Blue, you should visit us in Lapland. From next month till the end of January, there is no daylight. The sun stays a little bit below the horizon and the only light is blue. Everything will be surrounded by snow and the snow also looks ...

I have been to Finland once before

By: BluNotte : October 7th, 2012-09:31

Unfortunately was limited only to Helsinki, and not into the "real" Lapland as i understand the definition of it. That sounds beautiful, and would definitely be a once in a lifetime experience for me, should i ever be fortunate to go there again! Thanks! ...

You are always welcome!

Helsinki is a smallish European city. Lapland is the area north of the Polar Circle so there is very little in common with these two places. Lapland (in the Finnish side) is much larger that i.e. Belgium but with something like 20,000 inhabitants. The lan...

I once saw them on a flight from Frankfurt to Boston, and they were magical! Would love to see them, in the nature hopefully! Thanks! Stephen

As a matter of fact, i do have the blue Aventador Jota as i have all the Look Smart and MR models, I am a fan ( and friend) of Egidio Reali' s miniatures. As I do not have any more time to go shopping , he is kind enough to send me all his novelties. You ...

Ciao Luc! Always good to hear from you! And with your current new position, i can only imagine how busy you must be! Same here too. Yes you have mentioned to me before about your relationship with MR, and lucky you indeed! I wish i could have all too, but...

Bentley historic models. The MR and Looksmart models are made from the same tooling. Only difference is that the looksmart are produced in China due to the greater volumes ( still limited) but also to make them more affordable. The MR are produced in ital...

Cool addition to the collection Stephen. Have you ever gotten into building your won model cars? Way back when, companies like Revell had aiplanes, heli's, and of course cars. It was always fun building and painting it yourself. Some were glue together an...

I guess im just not that skillful

Thanks Ming! Well, i did try myself with Gundams back then, but that's probably as far as i went! Im not that good with my hands, so i often just marvel at the shops, but when it comes to actual purchase, i think i'll leave it to the pros ;) Tschuss Steph...
