The stunning, extremely rare 1992 Bburago Mmonza Diorama Garages.
The MMonza Garages was probably the Bburago’s most ambitious project, with obsessive attention to detail. Produced in only five pieces per subject, towards the end of 1992 they were put on sale in a test area for 850,000 lire (about $ 700 at the time), that was about forty times the price of the basic 1:18 model and they didn’t sell. Mr. Besana realized that he should have change target and dealers, from toys to collectible items, and the project was aborted. As a consequence, these items are today scarce.
