6:25 that's actually incorrect because I have seen some non-Chinese Maisto Shelby GT500s with raised windows. EDIT: I actually did find one with the side windows. Non chinese version in blue metallic with white stripes. So the myth is busted. 8:58 I notice that the Solidos have a decal of the stripes applied as seen by the uneven application of the stripes below the front grille. That's another drawback over the Maisto as the stripes are painted-on on that model. The carbon fibre on the rear wing is also a decal which will surely peel off over time as it does not have any clear coat over it. 17:58 on the Maisto CFTP track pack GT500, there are no rear seats and the front seats are also bucket seats while on the standard GT500, there are rear seats and the front seats are different. They took care of that detail.
Bought 3 Maistos from Costco in three different shades for $14.99 a piece, then bought a Solido for $39.99 online with free shipping. A week after the Solido arrived, I sold all three Maistos and have kept the Solido one, it looks and fell better than Maisto's version.
Both are very interesting, the metallic-blue one with white stripes from Maisto is a cool color combination. From Solido I'd pick the red one with white stripes. Of course the Chinese editions are also very interesting - except for the import issue.
As mentioned in the video, the only place where you can order them is from Europe, that being Solido's official website or other retailers like CK Modelcars. So you really have to evaluate what kind of models are you interested in and is this undoubtedly more expensive variant by Solido for the people in the US more appealing to you (could set you back up to 70 USD depending on shipping expenses). I personally would go with the Solido as the compromised Maisto with it's arguably more features, but less detailing doesn't really add anything for the overall appearance, quite the opposite in fact. As the massive panel gaps is still an occuring thing with Maistos and raised suspension may ruin the stance. For pure display, go with the Solido version, that is if the end price is acceptable to you as Maisto versions in the States (as said in the video) can even drop below 20 USD in certain times for certain retailers. If opening features is something you particularly want from a model then the Maisto is the only option as no one else produces such models.
I'm so mad that we don't get Solido in America because I love the red color with white stripes!
since i was able to by the maisto one for €27 and the solido was €45 it was a easy choice for the maisto
Regardless of the differences, I think both look really good. Nice video once again! Enjoy Christmas!
you too buddy, Merry Christmas! :)
Both are interessting I think. Greetings and have a nice christmas! :)

Do you think a G.I. joe 1/18 scale can fit inside the driver sit?

Really good models: quality vs. price is the best !!!!

I sure will be getting all three different colors from Solido sooner or later.
I just have to have an opening hood!
can you review the Bburago 1/24 250 testarossa :>
i don't collect classic ferraris, sorry, just retro ones and modern ones. The oldest ferrari in my collection is i think the 512 BB from 1976
@@ImperialDiecast i love that car do you know when it was made by bburago
Where can you buy in the us?

Costco
Red with White for the win.
Huh, a rather familiar duel. :)
Maisto better choice. Everything opens
