Another NSR 500 For Your Collection

We received the new Minichamps delivery today, headlined by their latest 500cc World Champion in 1:12 scale, Freddie Spencer’s 1985 Honda NSR 500 (P850004).

Also on the delivery were Alex Zanardi’s 1:43 2006 BMW F1.06 testcar (DC26499Z), and the garish 1:43 BP sponsored Porsche 956L from Le Mans 1983 (P836547).

Meanwhile, from CMC we received restocks of Stirling Moss’s 1:18 1955 Mille Miglia Mercedes 300 SLR (CMC066), so are once again able to supply it straight from stock.

LegendsInc catalogue now available

LegendsIncThe new lifestyle catalogue from Grand Prix Legends’ leisure arm LegendsInc is now available.

Most of our customers will know us for our motorsport merchandise and our diecast products, but much as we love everything with wheels and engines we’ve long felt a need to spread our wings.

And so, last year, we set out to create a catalogue of cool street clothing and branded it LegendsInc . We’ve sought out the kinds of brands we ourselves like to wear.

But often these ranges are still connected, in some way, with our heritage; that is to say with racing, engines, bikes and so on.

Fox, for example, still makes protective clothing and is heavily involved in motocross.

Lambretta may not make scooters any more but in the fifties and sixties, it was the marque to own ­ the real thing.

Alpha Industries is a maker for the military but, in truth, our love of planes isn’t far behind our love of cars and bikes.

Dainese speaks for itself. The coolest bike gear around and the coolest casual clothing too.

Oakley is another brand that’s heavily into car racing, particularly in the US. They’re also pretty active in two wheels, both bikes with motors and bikes without.

Okay, so Canterbury has nothing to do with cars, wheels or engines. But they do make sportswear to die for.

Schott is another military name but, historically, they have made some of the most famous biker jackets of all time; jackets like the Brando Perfecto and the Easy Rider jacket.

Onfire very much comes out of bike racing, although these days, they’re quite into the game with an oval ball too. It’s great gear at amazing prices.

Which just leaves Danger Rocks!; a brand that encompasses everything we love. Cars, bikes, planes, bicycles ­ it’s all about the adrenalin. And there’s no range of clothing out there that embodies the spirit of action, adventure and excitement better than Danger Rocks!

Anyway, we hope you like the collection we’ve put together. If you would like a legendsinc catalogue drop us a line on 08704603456.

Diecast news from Leigh later.
