The Ferrari promotion in Taiwan 7-11s has officially come to a close, but before that, I was finally able to check the last 3 I was missing off my list and complete the entire collection of 14 cars. Just like our friend Howard that also owns a sweet fleet of these Italian stallions, I relied on a family member in the form of my awesome uncle to help me track down these final 3. I shared with him my interest for these diecasts and showed him the post I did on 11 of the 14 I acquired previously, he enjoyed it and willing to help me since the company he works at always make purchases from 7-11 as a result accumulated tons of points required to trade for these Ferraris. Not only did he acquire the last missing 3, he also assembled them for me so it’s ready for some camera actions the moment I pulled them out of the box. Thanks uncle!

The 3 I was missing were the 2 bonus 458 race cars and the gorgeous yet aggressive F430 Scuderia 16M which is my favorite out of these 3. The 2 458s are awesome too but I felt it’s a bit unnecessary to have 2 of the same cast with different paint and tampos since it denied opportunity to feature other cool Ferrari models like the F40 or maybe an Enzo.
