Ferrari 312T, Hot Wheels Elite 1/43

For some time now, I want to write about this model. This is Hot Wheels Elite Ferrari 312T in 1/43 scale model car. I personally think this one is great model, especially because I bought this one for less than 20 Euros, and I think that is bargain. However, in the text I will try to point out some of the pros and cons of this one.

Već neko vrijeme želim da pišem o ovom modelu, ali do sada nisam nalazio vremena. Ovo je Hot Wheels Elite model u razmjeri 1/43, Ferrarija 312T. Inače pobjednika na tri trke u sezoni 1976. godine, i na šest trka u sezoni 1975. godine, kada je i bio šampionski bolid. Ovaj je model auta koji je korišćen u sezoni ’76. godine. Po mom mišljenju odličan model, posebno ako se uzme da sam ga kupio novog za manje od 20 Eura, ali dalje u tekstu ću probati da opišem model, što bolje mogu.

Ford GT, Amercom 1/43, Toys or Models

First, before we start, I would like to say that Serbia is in very difficult time. And that all the help is needed. Anyhow PLEASE just help. People have lost everything in these floods, and any help is more than welcome. I know that there are many of you, from all over the world that read these posts, so you know what to do if you have any means to help

Prvo prije nego što počnem, htio bih sve vas koji niste još uvijek pomogli područjima koja su stradala u poplavama da to uradite. Mnogo ljudi je ostalo bez svega, mnogima treba pomoć, pa eto, odreknite se neke kafe ili sendviča i pomognite ljudima. Možda se pokajete što ne pomognete sad.

Now back to the writing about die cast. Well this time, I write on request. I have been asked by one of my readers to write a post about differences between toys and models, or scale models. And that is not that easy to do. Especially today so many people is interested in this hobby and many of them like different stuff, so possibilities and variety of die cast collecting is vast. So I decided to point out in differences between some of the models that I have already written about, and I think that would be enough.

Sada nazad na pisanje o modelima. Ovaj put jedan tekst koji sam počeo pisati na zahtjev čitaoca. Jedan čitaoc mi je postavio pitanje zašto ne napišem nešto o tome gdje je granica između igračke i modela. Svakako ovo je vrlo zanimljiva tema, ali ipak mislim da je dosta nezahvalno pisati o tome. Ako pitate zašto odgovor je jednostavan, zapravo u ovom hobiju ima jako puno opcija i predmeta koji bi bili zanimljivi za sakupljanje. Da ne pominjem razmjere ili vrste vozila, kamioni, avioni, auti, formula, džipovi itd. Ipak potrudiću se da iz mojeg ugla sagledam ovo pitanje i naravno da probam da odgovorim.

Danas jedan post koji se odnosi na Lotus 49, ovaj put samo slike. Još jednom, Lotus 49, proizvođača Quartzo u razmjeri 1/43.

Brussels Grand Place Models, shop

This is fiftieth post on blogger, and there will be more post, I am not planning to stop with this :). So this will be about a shop in Brussels in Belgium. I was there in January this year and have finally decided to post something about this post today.

Pozdrav čitaoci, ovo je pedeseti post na blogu, i obećevam da će ih biti još, ne planiram još neko vrijeme da bataljujem sa ovim :). Danas kratak post o trgovini u Briselu. Tu sam bio još u januaru ove godine ali sam se tek sad nakanio da postavim i ovo.

Ferrari F640-189, Custom Ixo 1/43

Now, something interesting for those who like to customize their model cars, this was Ferrari F640-189 made by Ixo, La Storia, in scale 1/43. This is model of car driven in Japanese Grand Prix, and this one was winner on that race by Gerhard Berger. This type of Ferrari F640-189 is later version of the car. During that 1989 season Ferrari had two versions of the F640-189 car and this one is newer one. On the first race in the season Ferraris first driver Nigel Mansell won the race. The winning car was F640-189 but early version, and I wanted to have that one. So I decided to make it out of the one damaged I have. Few years ago I made an order on CK-modelcars and one of the cars came with broken front wing. Actually the right part of the wing was missing. When I saw that I contacted the shop, and they have sent me the new undamaged model on their cost. So I had this damaged one for quite a while when I decided to make something of it.

 Sada nešto što bi moglo da bude zanimljivo vama koji volite da radite prerade modela. Ovo je Ferrari F640-189 koji proizvodi Ixo za svoju seriju La Storia u razmjeri 1/43 kojom se na blogu najčešće i bavimo. Ovaj model je u originalu bio model auta koji je pobijedio na predposlednjoj trci u sezoni 1989. godine, na stazi Suzuka na Velikoj Nagradi Japana. Kad sam prije par godina kupio ovaj model isprva mi je stigao oštećen model sa sajta, što sam javio vlasnicima prodavnice, nakon čega mi je poslat novi model koji je bez oštećenja. Posle nekog vremena sam konačno odlučio što da uradim sa ovim modelom. Odluka je pala, kako je Ferrari te godine imao dvije verzije ovog modela, odlučio sam da napravim raniju verziju ovog bolida. I tako je počeo projekat izrade bolida koji je pobijedio na prvoj trci te sezone na Velikoj Nagradi Brazila.

Ferrari 312T, Ixo La Storia 1/43

Now one of those images only posts. This time it is the case because I will do so parallel analysis of four different manufacturers. So for now, you are seeing images of Ferrari 312T, made by Ixo for their edition La Storia in scale 1/43.

Danas ćete gledati jedan od postova u kojem preovladavaju fotografije. Ovaj put je to slučaj zato što ću uskoro na blogu napraviti jednu uporednu analizu modela, četiri proizvđača među kojima će biti i ovaj. Za sad gledate Ferrari 312T, koji proizvodi Ixo za njihovu ediciju La Storia u razmjeri 1/43.

 Na kraju posta vas čeka poster sa infografikom o Ferrariju 312T koji je jedan od uspješnijih automobila koji su učestvovali u šampionatu Formule 1.

At the end of this post you will find a link that will guide you to infographic that will inform you about Ferrari 312T story in Formula One Championship.
