Oxford Diecast 76RRS004 1/76 Scale Range Rover Sport SVR in Fuji White OO Gauge Compatible Model
Oxford Diecast recently released 76RRS004 in 1/76 Scale representing a Range Rover Sport SVR in Fuji White. This is a fully OO Gauge compatible model which is otherwise intended for the Adult / Discerning Collectors Market. Small this may be but do not underestimate this BEAUT of a Range Rover. Particularly if you are a fan of this vehicle manufacturer.
The Range Rover Sport SVR is one of the more recent marks of Range Rover to hit the market and this is a wonderful representation of it. The Fuji White colour comes across as very striking and compares well with the comparatively darkened details of the rest of the model adding to it's striking nature. I really like this and as a huge fan of the Land Rover Range Rover vehicles from all eras I am going to award this a FULL 10 / 10 and urge you to acquire one particularly if you are new to collecting Oxford Diecast models. It was after all a Range Rover Sport SVR but in blue which was amongst my first acquisitions which convinced me to buy more and see more of just what makes Oxford Diecast a market leader. Well ... I am pleased that I followed my instincts and hope that you are just as pleased too if you follow this advice :o)

Gemini Jets GJUAE1771 1/400 Scale Airbus A380-861 Emirates Airline A6-EUC (EK or UAE)
Gemini Jets and the Emirates Airbus A380-861 fleet have had a great legacy build up since the release of their first 1/400 scale model of A6-EDA with it's test registration back in 2008. With many models to this legacy's credit A6-EUC carrying the standard Emirates colours with new style 'Expo 2020' logos is the latest offering with the actual logojet for this event listed by the manufacturer for release in this same scale before the year end.
This model is practically as good as they could ever come being produced by Gemini Jets who are maybe 'the' market leader in this scale. Accuracy is excellent / second to none and the model comes packaged in the latest style of Emirates Packaging as first seen last year. This would be well worth getting hold of and in being a standard colours example will sell fast. 10 / 10 without hesitation. Truly excellent!

NOREV 1/43 Scale Skoda Octavia 'Combi' Estate in Metallic Green Diecast Collectors' Model
French manufacturer NOREV has produced a 1/43 Scale Skoda Octavia 'Combi' Estate in Metallic Green which is still available. This is a diecast collectors' model aimed at the Adult / Discerning Collector market.
NOREV have made bold inroads with this and their other Skoda models going head to head with ABREX which is Skoda's Preferred Supplier for corporate 'dealer' models. ABREX are from the Czech Republic so this choice must have been easy but this model is definitely on a par with the preferred supplier offerings. NOREV have done well here and the quality of this model bears all of their potentially market leading hallmarks. Just so long as NOREV's pricing strategy doesn't lose the plot like MINICHAMPS went and did / the reformed SCHUCO are in the process of doing ...
The example I have was acquired for a fair price and being what it is this was all the better. NOREV do have some excellent choices of model in their current inventory such as the Skodas they have picked to produce good renditions of. Unlike ABREX this manufacturer has chosen to focus on key best-selling models such as the Octavia only. But do bear in mind this is probably as the rival is the 'dealer' model preferred manufacturer and may have exclusivity on the lesser-selling offerings from Skoda such as the Fabia and Superb.
Just so long as NOREV bears the 'COVID-19 Era' in mind with it's pricing unlike some have gone and done this offering gets the FULL HOUSE 10 / 10 from me. Buy one I'd recommend it if you are a Collector :o)
