[1/18] Ep.09 Is Bburago Signature worth it? Signature VS Race and Play (feat. Ferrari FXX K)

[@carlover118col]

I think it's definitely worth it

[@robertkennedy9369]

I have the FXX k evo and the regular fxx k nº 10, the red one. I don't even needed to look at a signature model in person to know that I didn't need the upgrade. Both of mine diecast are up to my expectations, but here in Brazil they're not that cheap as US or some regions in Europe, so getting a signature model could be really frustrating imo.

Thanks for making the video. Why does your back logo on the Signature only say Ferrar instead of Ferrari?

[@danielharry1075]

Yes the Signature version is worth the extra money. Sure the side windows and a bit of paint can't double the asking price but what these upgrades do is to enhance the presentation value of the model and significantly so. And presentation value is everything when it comes to model cars. Sure the Signature is still a relatively cheap model but it does present very well and looks even at home between much dearer models.

Hmm..I can't really agree with you there. Yes, presentation value is everything in model cars and eventually what causes the upper scale models to cost hundreds of dollars more but honestly for most of Bburago's models, I don't see much of a difference in the said value. Signature hardly looks any better than the typical Bburago (Due to it sharing 90% of the parts) which is why I don't think it's better than the regular in terms of value. Windows, bits of decals here and there; they are all better than nothing, but in the end I think they are all minor details. Details that are not mainstream or mandatory in separating a model car's level of presentation value. For example if someone asks me why Autoart cars are more expensive than Maisto cars, I would point out the fine level of finishing and more parts.

Again, because the original Bburago cars are so cheap, the Signature isn't bad for its retail price but if someone were to ask me if they should buy a Signature or the regular, I would recommend the regular unless they prefer the color combinations of the signature

@@irisdiecastgarage1320 I royally agree with you, the signature model is not worth the different in price. However given the tyre writing and the side windows it does present less obvious "budget" model than the standard Bburago model and therefore it has better presentation value. The deeper and finer details only comes into play up close and in person. I'm a serious collector and high end models like Autoart, Kyosho, BBR are always my choice but there is a case to argue for these fully opening diecast models. Sure some cheap models are plain rubbish but there are good models with great preservation value. Models like Maisto's Ford GT, their Bronco and GT500 are stunning models. Bburago's Chiron is also another example of a good budget casting. But yes I hear you.

​@@irisdiecastgarage1320I think for the base models there is really room for customization which bburago promotes more to keep their models budget value as you can notice for the base model there is a towhook insert where one could add, such as the bugattis in their lineup where the rear hatch can't be opened and that shaving off the hinge could allow for that
