FAB!

Experience automotive excellence with the brand new 1/18 scale Aston Martin DB5 RHD by Autoart—a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts alike. This officially licensed model comes in the manufacturer’s original, unopened packaging and boasts true-to-scale detail, from its real rubber tires to the beautifully carpeted interior and trunk. Featuring a composite build, the DB5 includes opening hood, doors, and trunk, allowing you to admire the intricately detailed engine compartment and interior. The steerable wheels and impeccable exterior finish complete the experience, all packaged in a brand new box. With dimensions of approximately 9.25 inches long, 3.5 inches wide, and 2.75 inches high, this stunning replica is the ultimate tribute to one of the world’s most iconic cars. Now that we're alone, this isn't remotely worth the price. It's pretty, but all the parts are incredibly small and delicate. Many of the features can only be accessed with the included tweezers, and, even then, I scratched the car phone trying to get it open, which I couldn't. You can't play with this. You can't even display any of the cool features unless you're going to keep it in a glass case. Buy a cheaper one you can have out, or where it even has a few working features that won't immediately snap off. My opinion, yours may vary three out of five.
Wanted the best, too bad if this is it.

It's got everything it's supposed to. It's all very tiny, very delicate, and literally you need (provided) tweezers to get to most of it. I can't get the car phone open and already scratched the tiny door trying to. Everything else I've accessed. I'm going to display it with everything retracted because it will snap right off if I leave it extended. If it were, say 1/12 scale and the tiny parts were metal, it would be much, much more durable. Absolutely not a toy, and playing with it when you need the tweezers to do anything seems largely out of the question.
