known for their accuracy of scale, shape and detail throughout the industry. Each model is created using
a variety of production processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite
material referred to in the industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and
waterslide decals are often used for the most authentic replication.
BBR models are usually produced in very small production quantities that often sell out at "pre-order"
