I think it's a shame tht GM did sell some exclusivity to a cheap company like Jada. I would have liked to find a Cam 5 in the quality range like AutoArt used to do, even though it would have met a $200,00 tag price.

I used to own a 1979, L-82, 4 spped M-21 tranny,Yellow Vette and I found the exact copy in a 1978 version, the craftmanship is wonderfull and so much detailed....I would like to find the same quality for my 2010 Rally Yellow, v6 version. Here's what you could find:

I wish I could find a model kit of a 3rd gen, I remember when I used to put together model kits, I'd sit out there for a good 4 or 5 hours trying to get every detail right.

Just bought this one on Ebay. It's a Maisto and very good quality compared to Jada. Also available in RJT.

So now I have 2 exact replicas (even though it's an SS) of the 2 last sports car I owned:

Looks like I'm going to order one from Chevymall.com!

montreal2010yellow · 07-18-2011, 06:12 AM

Maisto has new products. I bought a Rally Yellow and looks very nice. It's a SS with all correct details and EOM looks. Not Jada toy.

I think they make RJT. Check with the Ebay reseller.

I guess it's few dollars cheaper to go on EBay. Shipping is the killer.

I bought my 1/18 scale Camaro on Chevymall. I then proceeded to disassemble it and paint the model with 1969 LeMans Blue Metallic Dupont basecoat/clearcoat. I mixed the color from a formula I got from my local paint supplier. Yes, I have a bodyshop, and yes, I know this is ridiculous. I just wanted to see what it would look like. Now that GM has NO BLUE COLOR available to order on a 2012 Camaro, I guess I will have to buy a used one and paint it myself. Gee...thanks alot, GM.

I just received 2 kits of the AMT 2010 Camaro SS Coupe.
The quality is not bad!

Some features:

The rear spoiler and rocker panels are separate pieces.
The model has no engine, but does have a removable hood.
The model has a full headliner piece, but is the version for a sunroof.
The only glaring omission is the lack of a rear view mirror.
Solid metal axles for the front and rear wheels.
The head light lenses and front turn signal lenses are separate pieces.
Actual Pirelli P-Zero tire tread molded on the rubber tires.

Here are some "white glue" test assembly shots:

The custom 1:18 scale diecast models I have completed between March 2010 and this month (the first 3 are Jada, the rest are Maisto):

RamGrad · 03-03-2012, 01:03 AM

I made mine from a hard top model from Hobby Lobby and cut the top off, then painted the interior to match. I had some paint matched to my car left over from painting my engine cover. I need to touch up some of the paint quality issues, but its not bad for 10 bucks.

VChula · 05-10-2012, 08:32 PM

The latest Maisto 1:18 scale model in metallic blue - a pretty close match to Imperial Blue Metallic:

CUONCRS · 05-11-2012, 10:22 AM

Yep, VERY darn close!
