Tecnomodel is renowned for producing high-quality 1:18 scale diecast and resin models, particularly of racing cars like Formula 1, Le Mans, and classic vehicles. Here’s an overview of their quality based on available information:
  • Materials and Craftsmanship: Tecnomodel primarily uses resin for its 1:18 models, which allows for finer detailing compared to traditional diecast metal. The models feature precise body lines, accurate liveries, and intricate components like suspension details, tire treads, and cockpit interiors. For example, the TM18-288B March 721X includes a detailed cockpit replica, showcasing their focus on authenticity.
  • Detailing and Accuracy: Collectors praise Tecnomodel for its attention to historical accuracy, with liveries, sponsor logos, and car-specific features meticulously reproduced. Models often include photo-etched parts, realistic decals, and functional elements like steering wheels or removable engine covers (where applicable). The Mythos Series, including limited editions like the TM18-288B, emphasizes premium detailing for enthusiasts.
  • Build Quality: The resin construction ensures a smooth finish and lightweight feel, though it’s less durable than metal diecast models. Fit and finish are generally excellent, with minimal gaps or misalignments reported. However, as resin models are sealed (non-opening parts), they prioritize display aesthetics over interactive features.
  • Packaging and Presentation: Tecnomodel models come in high-quality packaging, often with a display base and acrylic case, enhancing their collectible appeal. Limited editions, include numbered certificates, adding exclusivity.



These 1:18 scale replicas will be a great addition to any model collection. Models are
hand painted and are made of cast Resin. Photo etched parts, tampo printing and
waterslide decals are used to achieve the clear, crisp detail. Hand Painted and polished
to a beautiful finish, these models are exceptionally accurate in scale and shape.
