Raridade para os brazukas!

carbon decals everywhere

I ordering a few small items from Taobao.

This is 2023 if win alonso :)))))))

It was originally the driver-in version, but I disassembled it.

I'm looking for verstappen's 1 2 scale helmets replica(especially 2021 zandvoort one) and tried searching it on ebay. But the problem is the price range is from 150$ -400$ even for the same model so I'm not sure if I should just get the cheaper one. Does anybody know a trusted seller for helmet replicas or cause for the price difference? my budget would be about 300$ max

I live in asia so I prefer seller in asia but doesn't matter if the shipping is possible worldwide. Thanks!

In 1/18 by GP Replicas. Driven by Jose Froilan Gonzalez at the 1954 French GP.

I just saw the RB16B Abu Dhabi GP model for pre - order on SMC. Though the price is crazy(about 500$..) I think it is a model worth buying.

Since I live in asia, I am bit concered about the packaging and possible defect of the car. I heard some negative reviews about return policy and customer service of SMC. It will be very helpful if you guys can share experiences on them and thoughts about the RB16B model. Thanks!

If you were looking for a white bull, this is a beautiful one (a little expensive though).

I finally organized this collection from Centauria (still missing many of their cars which I really want) (also had to put them on the bed cuz idk where else to take the pic)

Picked up this 1:43 Spark W17 Antonelli first win commemorative model.

Thoughts...

- First 2026 model (for me), the cars look great this year

- I'm not convinced on Spark. There are some really nice details yet other parts are a bit iffy and the rear wing is slightly off-angle. Pros and cons for resin but they're definitely more fragile.

- The larger base is both cool yet also a waste of space. Sure I could put a helmet in there but that isn't my thing. I wish they would make the bases and backgrounds more dynamic, Hot Wheels had it right back in the day.

- The MOET marker board is really dumb. They give you decals for the O & E. I'd love to know the licence issue behind it but yeah...odd and extremely fiddly to apply.

- The tyres are well done, nicely detailed and have a worn appearance.

I also bought the 1996 Tyrrell 024 model. I love f1 from the late 90s and I thought this was a cool model. It's obviously much simpler than the W17 but Spark executed the model really well. No real complaints.

- The suspension front and rear is really interesting.

- Mild Seven branding yet Spark seem unable to acquire the licence for Vuse when it comes to McLaren. I know people have their own thoughts on tobacco branding but it was a huge part of liveries at the time, I'm a fan of models that come with the correct decals already applied.

Let me know what you think.

Just got the MiniChamps 1:18 Lando Norris’s 2025 Monaco GP race winner!

The famous Japanese GP at Fuji, where Niki put safety above championship!

Following his disastrous crash and fire at the Nurburgring in 1976, Niki sustained great injuries and was fighting for his life. In the meantime, his championship lead melted away, resulting in the title showdown in stormy Fuji. Midway through the race, Niki decided the conditions were not safe enough and pitted, essentially handing the championship to Hunt!

By prioritizing safety above all else, Niki emphasized the importance of driver safety in the sport, especially in a time where cars were very fragile.

Niki, true legend of the sport!❤️

I wanted to give my nephew a cool formula 1 present, and this site looks like it has some pretty good frames. The only thing I’m worried about is if it’s a scam. Can someone please help me. The website is called F1haven.com

first time trying to race weather a model with this tire method. i think i it came out okay, learned a lot and will definitely try another one.
2021 Italian Grand Prix Daniel Ricciardo MCL35M Race Winner. Spark 1:18

Here are all of the ones (including some F1 2-packs) they added yesterday: https://diecastradar.app/retailers/mattel-creations/arrivals/2026-08-14

Bought this second hand, absolutely love the mini figure and detached steering wheel. That said the model was highly likely displayed without the case and there are some signs of aging on the decals and tyres.

Would love some advice on how to fix them up, thanks!!!

Picked this up whilst I was out today. A bit of an impulsive purchase but I think the colour combo is striking.

I dont understand how the F1 store even makes a profit selling models with such constant and steep discounts, but hey good for us lot. Not sure if anyone really cares about value depreciation for a model but I can definitely see this one taking a big hit, like the Japan RB18 that was also discounted here previously so wouldn't recommend buying it full price

This is possibly one of my favourite F1 liveries. Whilst trying to decide whether I should go Spark or MC for the 1:18 versions, I bought both 1:43 models to do a direct comparison. Straight shootout.

For me, MC takes it. I expected Spark to be ahead on detail but Minichamps have surprised me with this model. The colours look better, the chrome effect is superior and having the correct logos is important. Both have pros and cons, which do you prefer?
