What is your opinion on the new model from the company MakeUp Eidolon? Me in it something not like ... I have a kit from BBR. Ferrari f355 Berlinetta from MakeUp Eidolon I have a pre-order. I see in it the following errors:
-gross-square wheels.
-errors on front grill - slightly recessed circular lights (in real, be deeper)
-wrong roundness on the front fender - BBR front grille is better - it seems more real
-rear spoiler seems to me to Eidolon thinner than in reality.
-missing Ferrari sticker on the side (to be completed??)
I give pictures the comparison of new Eidolon to the old version of model from BBR and a real car.

Make Up model is much much better! More subtle study, a jeweler's precision and even have the brake pads, which for some reason have no BBR

The Make Up should be better!

The BBR is at least 15 years old and quality has improved significantly over the years.

You can't compare these anymore.

If you want a better model, buy the Make Up.

My opinion is the same. MakeUp Eidolon is better than BBR. But not perfect ... Errors I have described in the first post.

Today I was taken over by the customs..

Unfortunately ... not on the side stickers ferrari, wheels are not a "raincoat" - look angular, and the whole body is high - the gap between wheel and fender (maybe this can be adjusted). Otherwise it is flawless and beautiful. Circular front lights are seated properly - deeper, it's okay. I will add some photos later details.
