Mattel and Minichamps announcements
Today we received a sample of Mattel’s latest addition to its 1:18 Ferrari F430 Challenge range. It is of 2006 Italian Champion Andrea Belluzzi (Product Code - HW9533). We hope to see delivery of this model by the end of the summer, although as the rain continues to lash down outside I’m not sure what passes for summer anymore.
Minichamps have announced some new 1:43 replicas, including some 2007 DTM cars, the winning Porsche RS Spyder from this year’s Mid-Ohio American Le Mans Series race (Product Code - P076697), and, somewhat bizarrely, Takuma Sato’s Jordan from a pre-season test in 2002 (Product Code - P024399)! If you’re making that Minichamps, then there are also other testcars that are worthy, such as Raikkonen’s first Sauber or first McLaren test! Not that I’m biased you understand! All of these new subjects can be found at the top of our ‘2007 Announcements’ link.
