Brands to Collect or AVOID: Spark in 1/43 scale.

[@AtTonisGarage]

Spark is my favorite 1/43 scale manufacturer...I absolutely love their models, And I can't get enough of them.. You have some awesome models from Spark 😊

[@markzebr6463]

Thank you Toni. I couldn't agree with you more. Spark collecting is addictive and will probably lead to me going broke and my wife leaving me...😮

[@AtTonisGarage]

@@markzebr6463 as funny as this comment was, let's hope not 😅😅😅🤜🤛

The Falken Livery on the Porsch is so iconic

[@markzebr6463]

That car was one of the first Sparks I bought. It is still one of my favorite. Want to by the sister car to add to my collection of famous Porsche Pairs. Thanks for watching.

[@albertomegapro]

If Spark had Ferraris, it would be my favourite brand, now it's Bburago

[@markzebr6463]

I am told that Looksmart race cars are made by Spark. Excellent cars just too darn expensive.

[@Aotearoa_Kiwi]

@@markzebr6463 Yes they are made by Spark. Looksmart produce their own road cars, but contract Minimax (Spark) to produce all their race car models.

[@moritzlohle4082]

Spark is my favorit by far...I m glad to also have this 917 / RSR box set. I ve got the Chance to get it signed be Lietz, Makowieki & Bruni this year in Le Mans. By the way, the car is from Le Mans 2020, not 2019 as you said...

[@markzebr6463]

I am envious about getting your set signed. Congrats...Yes , thanks. You are right about ot being 2020..Thanks for watching until the end. I should intentionally make mistakes toward the end of videos to determine who actually takes the time to watch it.

[@abirmpas]

Allow me a recommendation: If you like the double box-sets, also check the ones from HPI Racing. They are just exquisite!

[@markzebr6463]

Ive seen an HPI triple box set. Price was fair at 175.00 USD but, you had to apply decals.

[@homie-gtv322]

Do you keep your models in their packaging or do you take them out and display them in a case or something?

[@markzebr6463]

Very good question..I have an entire wall full of 1/24 scale Nascar cars and (2) smaller display cases for all of my 1/64 scale and only 29 of my 1/43 of which I rotate. I have about 259 1/43 scale cars. Plans to display more are coming up. Next week I leave for the Shaleen 6 hours at Watkins Glen and will have some cool paddock tours starting Thursday

i dont consider a short macau race a premier class

[@markzebr6463]

Hi. Thanks for your feedback. Macau is more of an all-stsr race as it is a single driver sprint race.

glad to have you onboard. Anything I can help you with, let me know.

[@patito8728]

Ah spark is..as u said the absolute best and killers in 1/43, i still have my list of models i would like for them to make tho😂so they're not making everything..for me at least im picky like that but yeah an endless sea of cool models.

[@markzebr6463]

Cool thing is that their will be an endless supply of releases for as long as you collect.

[@jstones9872]

what is a good online usa source to purchase Spark collectible cars? thx just getting started with this.

[@markzebr6463]

Hi. That is a good question. 90% of all models that I purchase regardless of brand are through Ebay. I have no local model dealer anywhere in the state of Virginia. I got to know Toronto Motorsports at racetracks. They have both Spark and TSM 1/43 scale. Toronto Motorports also have an online store. They have great sales of up to 50% off after Christmas through March. While shopping on Ebay don't be afraid of buying models in foreign countries. I have purchased models from all over the world. The one country I would avoid at all costs is JAPAN. The prices there are outrageous. Spark models retail for about 100.00 USD or 80 Euros. I frequently get deals as low as 25.00-50.00 USD. High demand and newer models 80-100.00. and super premium ie. Hertz Porsche 963 125.00 USD. Any further questions, reach out to me at [e-mail]. Thanks for watching.

i like spark but get ixo equivalent that is cheaper if available

[@markzebr6463]

i agree 100%. I have found that the IXO prototypes to be of very good quality in 1/43 scale. Almost all of the IXO in 1/18 scale are excellent except the Ford GT. Thanks for watching.

[@markzebr6463]

Caddilac has not win Le Mans yet. Toyota has won from 2018-2022 and Ferrari in 2023. All winners are available in Spark and both Caddilac DPis and GTPs.
