- Review: Low price, high quality - I've picked up a few of
Bburago's 1/24 scale models recently. The 499p Le Mans winning
hypercar, a Porsche 911 RSR and this GTE. The level of detail,
overall shape and presentation of these models is spot on.
Although considered toys by serious model snobs these can easily
hold their own sat alongside much more expensive diecasts. I
should also mention their 1/24 F1 range which are extremely well
done. Aside from the F1 models this GTE probably takes first
prize for detail and the flawless candy red paint job. Decal
application is also superb and all are well applied. Interior has
some detail, it's hard to see but the engine is clearly visible.
The door shut lines are astonishingly precise, so much so they
are difficult to open, a fingernail at the bottom is the best
method. Another plus point is the inclusion of side windows which
is usually the reserve of much more expensive models. The only
bad points are this particular model came from mainland Europe
and they have this annoying habit of shipping everything in paper
bags! The box suffered minor damage but fortunately the car was
untouched. This may bother those who like to display in the
boxes. Also the car sits off it's wheels when attached to the
base meaning the wheels droop leaving a 4x4 arch gap. I'll be
modifying this to drop it down to the ground. All in all a highly
recommended model that punches way above its price point.
Review: Excellent - Excellent model great detail
