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. 🤩

New model Mercedes AMG F1 W17 just arrived

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.

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.

Today I received the VCARB 2025 British GP car from Spark in 1:43. I really like what Vcarb does with all the different liveries, but this one stood out for me. London based artist Slawn collaboration for the livery. What do you think? Do we need more art cars? I say yes!

Found these stickers still in the box for this 1:43 Minichamps model, Jos Verstappen in the Benetton at Spa 1994. So after i found out how it worked, dissolving them in water, i went ahead to apply all 16 stickers in total, all Mild Seven. Couldn't imagine doing this in 1:64 scale 😂 Looks much better then a bold car imho.

New spark McLaren Oscar Piastri 1:18 from the 2024 Monaco GP. It looks amazing in person

So disappointing to see they haven’t fixed the ride height.

Was skeptical about the dark red on the sf-25 and how it would loom but turns out under the lights its nice

Finally, after 10 month of waiting it arrived.

Anyone know what it’s for?

ISO Verstappen Amalgam 1:18 RB19 if anyone has any leads

I’m thinking about just getting the Perez model if I can’t find the Verstappen but wanted to check here first

Something that you dont see often here, but I just love the shape pf the early 70's Ferraris

Hi everyone!

I recently bought the Bell 1:2 scale replica of Kimi Antonelli’s 2026 helmet, and I noticed something strange about its shape.

The rear of the 1:2 replica looks much more squared off and angular, whereas the real helmet has a noticeably rounder, more curved rear profile.

Interestingly, the 1:5 scale Spark replica seems to reproduce the shape of the real helmet much more accurately.

Does anyone know why Bell’s 1:2 replica has a different shell shape? Is it due to the mould used for the miniature, a different helmet shell design, or simply a limitation of the model?

Thanks in advance!
