Great! I've wanted to but have not the chance to see them all until now. Thanks Marcel!
For the 7th Ambassador Shabbir Malik's, there is a better picture from his website:

And I suppose the 10 buses will be included in your Perspex case models listing?
Cheers,

Thanks Ritchie.
I considered them being part of my perspex box listing hence I collected the photos over the years.
Sofar I have not included the models into this list as the models are all one-off and the case is different to the ones used for Toyfair and Gathering models.

Last update was from just after Leipzig and it does not yet include the 2014 SEMA Ford Bronco model.

Since then the tofair model fro 2015 was jst in a plain black box and the gathering models from a few weeks ago were on a blister.

Here is a link to the latest listing I made which does not include the SEMA Ford Bronco yet.

You can clinck on the modelnames in the 2nd column to see the pictures.
