Matt’s Models – June 2011

This month brings to fruition, a long wait for a few very rare (and much delayed) models. Minichamps, makers of excellent models in both 1/43 and 1/18th scale, had mentioned that they were going to be releasing a new batch of lotus models

Matt’s Models – April 2011

This month, Spark models continues it’s assault on all things Lotus, and our wallets! (As I tell my wife, there are much worse things to be addicted to!) First up is the Lotus …. helicopter? Yep, not only has Spark come

Matt’s Models – March 2011

This month, we take a peak at a couple of new releases from Spark, in all their l/43 handbuilt glory. Those who have been following my articles know that I have been very impressed with the Lotus line from Spark.

Matt’s Models – February 2011

This month we are blessed (or cursed, if you are a spouse of a collector!) with a few Loti tidbits… mostly repaints, but one surprise as well! The good news is that this month, you won’t break the bank picking up these little

Matt’s Models – December 2010

This month, we look at a few stunning new releases from Spark (you know by now… handbuilt, low volume, get them while you can), that just happen to be the right size to fit in a stocking. Be sure to

Matt’s Models – November 2010

This month, we are blessed (or cursed, if you are a lotusphile collector) with another version of the Lotus Sport Elise (is there really such a thing, I think this model is actually an Exige?) for 2010. This time around, Hot Wheels has

Matt’s Models – September 2010

Let’s say you were Team Lotus, and it was 1968. You were on your way to go racing at Silverstone…. what better (or cooler) way to arrive on track than to have a Mini Moke at your disposal! This release from Spark
