The front wing antenna part has been cut— There were no broken pieces found inside the packaging. SMC has refused to provide a refund, offering instead a $20 coupon and the suggestion that I reattach the part using a glue gun.

New model Mercedes AMG F1 W17 just arrived

2 mixes announced. More to come. Still dot matrix.

But all new casting since F1 changes some rules last minute.

Each team has unique wheels now. 🤩

I have been wanting to get into collecting Motorsport and street car die-cast for a while now. I’m a huge NASCAR fan and they are pretty easy to get into die-cast-wise, one brand, two main scales. But what I have seen is that F1 is really hard to get into with so many brands, and a lot of it being primarily premium. I’m looking for a good brand(s) that would be good to collect 1:18 or 1:24 scale F1 models. I saw Bbugaro has some, but not all, so if anyone else knows some brands, please tell me, as I’m looking to get a somewhat full grid. Thank you, have a great day.
