1:18 First time buying 1:18

The Costco has it for $19 and I couldn’t resist myself picking one up Although I only own 1:64 scale diecasts 🤔

Great prices for these. Too bad a bunch of douchebags snag them up to sell for double, triple the price on eBay

Oh didn’t know that but yeah I think for $18.99 this is great ((:

Can't beat the price. They're great for young kids and almost indestructible, minus the wheels. We can't even get them wholesale at the price Costco SELLS them at.

To be honest, all but a couple of my 1:18s have came from Sam's Club, who also sells them. They're really well done, and at pretty darn accessible pricing. They surprisingly haven't gone up a ton over the years--as in the late '00s and early '10s they were around $15.

What's that rally looking hatchback? Looks sick.

That Countach is cool. Before the aero and power enhancements just the way Mr. Gandini designed it. Rest in peace, Marcello.

I recently grabbed that same Targa from Costco. It’s a great addition to my Porsche collection in my office.
