Hello Guys,
I am wondering if any one has Villa models or Twin Crono models, how is the quality? are they diecast or resin? I could not find any info. on the web. I am interesting on a 1974 312B3 not sure wich one to chose, please help.
If someone has pictures please post.
Thanks
Regards

Twin Chrono are quite old diecasts, made at the beginning of the 90s, quite low quality.
Also very low quality for the Villa Models, mostly revamped old white metal FDS kits with poor finish. Only for rabid F.1 collectors. |

Hello Abel,
i have some Villa (i think these are old FDS Kits) and i have some Twin Crono´s also. Bad Quality buy better some Hot Wheels, Minichamps, Quarzo Models they are much better.

Hello Guys,
Thank you for the feedback, they dont look very good, I though they were handbuilts, in that case I would try maybe a Redline, not as high end as BBR, good value for the money.
Thanks again.

| Red Line's B3 has some errors, as well, but all in all is a quite decent model and quite good value for money. Look for the Lauda version, as Regazzoni's helmet is wrong - it should be a Jeb's with those strange square lines, which Red Line failed to reproduce. Otherwise, some minor inaccuracies apart, Red Line's B3 is an acceptable miniature, which can be obtained at good prices if you search well. |
