The 1:18 DeLorean Model

Sunstar 1:18 DeLorean Model - Buy It!

It was another DeLorean Christmas in 2001.  I received the Sunstar 1:18 scale DeLorean model, and it is nice!  The brushed stainless look is just about perfect.  The grain is probably not scale (it's too big), but it looks right and that's what's important!. It looks expensive, but it's fairly reasonably priced. The pieces fit together well. It was available from DieCastFast.com as well as several other model shops, but appears to be out of stock. The gold-plated version is still available.

The detail on this model is excellent. Raising the rear sunshade reveals the engine cover. Lifting that shows the engine, with excellent detail. The DMC label on the air cleaner is prominent. The only things missing from this model are the gas struts and the door pull loops! Excellent detail at a reasonable price!  RECOMMENDED ! 

I also got a display case for it!. There is enough room in the 1:18 scale display case to show the DeLorean model with the doors open. Like my 1:1 scale DeLorean, this one is bound to attract admirers and fingerprints! Although there have been reports in the DML that some models have doors that will not stay open, mine does not have that problem.

The Sunstar DeLorean quality is excellent!
Door pull-straps and struts are nearly the only missing details on the Sunstar 1:18 scale model!

Two DeLoreans!

Welly 1:24 Scale Model - Save your money!

I also picked up the Welly 1:24 scale DeLorean.  Don't bother! :(  There is no rear sunshade, it's just painted grey, and the door windows are wide open - no signs of the 'Toll Booth' windows! Unless you're committed to 1:24 scale, get the Sunstar 1:18 scale!
