2G Die-Cast Models

[bryan_tberry]

Hey I was wondering if anybody knew of/had a die-cast model of a 2G. Ive been searching for one forever. The only thing i can find is those ghey-ass F&F cars. Im looking for something like a 99 Eclipse GSX in particular. Something that looks stock. I know that car dealers always have little 1:18 die-cast cars sitting around everywhere in the showrooms, but I havent checked the local dealer yet. Any help would be appreciated.

All I have found is the Modifiers for the stock look and I am not sure on their scale. As far as like 1/18th all your gonna find is the F & F Stuff. I have three different eclipses. Bought two of the same and will paint up one the way I want to. I've found all my Eclipse stuff on ebay.

Modifiers are 1/43 scale but they are liers. It says 99 gsx but its a NT

How can you tell it's n/t?? I was about to buy one thinking it would be the exact as my car. As long as hit has the rims and the wing i'll be fine.

I have the silver one. It has the NT engine in it.
This is coming out sometime..it's a deluxe set. Looks nice except for the color & graphic on the side.

??? ever since TFATF it seems like everyone thinks that "puke green" is the standard color for a modified eclipse.

 

[bluesbabybones]

i totally agree with you there!!! I'm tired of seeing it too.

why cant someone just come out with a nice eclipse ? i mean everything has to be riced out. they make pt crusiers for christ sake. who da f*ck buys them?

You could get a nitro powered Eclipse. Little more expensive, though.

Sorry to bring this back from the dead but anyone know where I can get that green GSX model the guy above posted? Or any 2nd Gen clean models. It's for a friend and it would be awesome if I could get a mini version of his car. Thanks in advance!

It's gonna be catch-as-catch-can at this point. Keep trying eBay, or if you're close enough to run to Chicago for a Toy Swap Meet, you might find something there. Even the Revell kit is getting scarce:

I still catch the occasional 1g model on Ebay. Prices have gotten out of hand for that thing.

I have a red Hot Wheels Eclipse, with a big turbo sticking out of the hood!!!
I got it years ago at a flea Market, in H-town Texas.

I can't even find any of these for sale anywhere, but it's called Modifiers. Apparently they don't make them anymore:

Here's a picture of the box...only this is of an Integra.

I'm broke so I guess it is some one else's lucky day.

I've been looking, but I'm only able to find the F&F ones recently at a hobby shop. I'd like to find one with the N/T wing and N/T wheels. That's just me I guess.

Well, i'll post a pic of my "de-riced" fast and furry model. I tried to match it to my car the best i could... it's been on my TV stand for about 5-6 years now and everyone thinks it came with my car since it was apinted with some leftover i had the body shop mix up when it was in for a door skin once

Here's my eclipse...two of my favorte kind of models the R1 and Busa (so intricate i love em! ) Then there's the BMW M1 race car that i haven't painted or stikered yet, and an overview of the hotwheels and little matchbox style cars sittig on my TV stand.

It started life as this pre-built fast and Furry die cast in green
