If you donnoe how to take care of your diecasts i suggest you don't even buy them.or just give them to someone else who can take care.
if not, learn how to take care, cuz it's your money you spent and you damaged it.

Eh
Model spoil?! Replace them with a new one if the need arises...
I do have spares for certain makes though

TRANSDEV East Lanc Myllenium -> Volvo B7L by Corgi
The odd part about this diecast is that the exit door's been blocked by the interior seats, where the PIW would have boarded/alighted. Don't know if it's me, or is the actual bus having seats at the exit doors.
-
It should be a manufacturing defect having the seats casting the same as those for the one-door Vykings.
Any folks who have their models damaged can PM me, see if I can help in repairs. Much appreciated.

Should be same interior mold as single door unit. Saw other 2-door same models with similar problem too.
Cheers.

Add on certain model builders like to cut corners by using the same mould for similar category of buses w/o differentiating whther its 2 or single door so buyer beware...

TOTALLY AGREE! they always never put mirrors and grabpoles... that is their standard flaws...My ranking for bus model manufacturers:
CMN
DrumWell
80M
Cars WS
Lastly,Corgi
I MUST say that CMN models are very perfect... so detailed and their wheels are very smooth, unlike Cars WS, their tyres are not perfectly round... Its a pity that they only make NWFB for hk models, and no KMB, LWB... Luckily our singapore twin pack, single pack and the 3 VO2x made by them... expecting more of HK and SG buses from them...

why now I got problems posting in SGF!

Concorde Hobby Shop more precise. Take a look at their Dennis Dragon 9.9m and you'll understand.
