If only (even if *just* the two front) doors open, I’d be all over the e38, Yaris GR and FD2 :(
Even if the shape of the e38 looks a bit off. Kinda looks chunkier than it should be, IMO
Their quality is very bad. Ordered three models, and every single one had issues that was not acceptable.The whole process after that was a pain, and in the end I was treated like a piece of shit.
My last Otto came with the rear windshield popped out. After that, I have phobia of Otto.
I always thought I would buy a 1/18 BMW 750il from Tomorrow Never Dies in a heartbeat, but nope.
Otto just lazily recycled their original mold from their long wheelbase V12 E38 750il for this model.
They did the same thing with their Alpina E38 as well. They just maid the side pillars wider hoping we wouldn’t notice.
The cars used in the film were re-badged 740ils with the standard wheelbase and V8s. They were also original E38s (pre-facelift), with the the straight edged rectangular headlights.
I had been wanting a faithful scale model of this car for years, but I can’t fault Otto for at least trying to give the market something different. Just make a new mold next time…expensive or not. Do it right.
Same can be said of their “Ronin S8”. Pictures and footage are pretty telling.
