1/43 scale, rising or shooting star?







If you have followed the slot cars world during the last years, you will have realized how the 1/43 scale is the one with more "news" lately. For some years it "belonged" to Carrera (I don´t count Artin, its second name Fast Lane or Jiada, please if somebody knows what happened to jwlslotcars let me know). But two years ago SCX appeared in the business with a different approach, they are exclusively sold in Target, there are three different tracks (two the first year) and four different blisters of two cars at a very good price $19.95. What way will be the best one? Will any of them prevail or there will be business for both of them? with the ongoing crisis, 1/43 will increase its sales as a haven for lovers of this hobby that can pay the high prices of 1/32 or the even more exclusive 1/24? Is this scale just an introduction to the hobby or you think it is a good option?








I would like to read here about your opinions and your ideas so we could improve our understanding of this new "world".
