Minichamps Announce 2008 Moto GP Grid

posted in Diecast, Moto GP, Formula 1 |

Minichamps announced their 2008 1:12 Moto GP line-up today. We have also been informed that there will be some additional subjects confirmed next week.

The highlights are the two Fiat Yamahas of Valentino Rossi (PO83046), and Jorge Lorenzo (PO83048). After the amazing start to his Moto GP career, the Lorenzo bike could well be an instant sell-out, as I’m sure that several speculators out there will have pound signs in their eyes by planning to buy up his bike and then sell it on Ebay in the future, when he could potentially be a World Champion many times over.

Other notables are Casey Stoner (PO80001), Dani Pedrosa (PO81102), and James Toseland (PO83052). The other riders can currently be found at the top of our New Announcements section.

We also received a delivery from Amalgam, which takes care of their remaining 2007 Formula One subjects. The new releases are the 1:4 BMW F1.07 steering wheel (AML737), and the 1:12 nosecones of the Red Bull RB3 (AML734), and Toro Rosso STR2 (AML742).

    Hi Leigh. What do you think the chances are of Minichamps announcing a Hamilton Monaco GP Winner model?

    I think there’s a good chance, after all they did a Raikkonen Monaco winner; as with so much in diecast it’s a matter of ‘watch this space’!
