    I think you could fix it with the ever so slightest drop of Attack Loctite, but you have to be careful and cover the windscreen so the vapor of the glue doesn't affect it (it might get white/milky then).

    I don't want to take the risk.

    It was broken during transport, so I'll return it and have it replaced instead.

    I hope for you they will do that and that they won't say it was your fault, it can be quite a bit tricky with Italian delivery services (we have some trouble at work with them almost every week) :)

    Is 1/43 the main scale you collect?

    Yes. I have a bit of everything, but 1:43s are the lion's share.

    Wow, they're looking really good, I'd love to get my hands on one of those. Especially the red and white one looks very classy, I love it!

    Two pictures of my favourite 1/18 scale model :)

    P.S: I started an online picture-archive on Facebook mainly for myself to keep track of what models I already have. Well, mostly because at fleamarkets and stores I struggle to remember that, to be honest :D
    The counter's at 1095 models so far (60 being 1/24th scale and the rest 1/64th scale), with yet many to be captured still ._.

    There was a themed weekend in a Facebook-diecast-group I'm part of. The theme was Japan and those are some of the pictures I've taken :)

    New arrivals: two 1:24 Citroën 2CVs (you can never have too many 2CVs!) by Welly, a 1:64 (?) Dodge Challenger Hellkitten by Majorette and a pretty 1:43 Alfa Romeo 164 by Minichamps.

    :)
