With The VAT Reduction In Place, How About Some Amalgam Gear?

posted in Diecast, Other Cars, Formula 1 |

As Amalgam’s 1:8 replica of Lewis Hamilton’s McLaren MP4/23 from the 2008 Monaco Grand Prix (AML834) comes close to selling out, they have now announced a new version of his championship clinching car from this year’s Brazilian Grand Prix (AML857). As you would expect, it will have the specific aerodynamic package from that race, including the new ‘horns’ on the nosecone.

Amalgam also released their third 1:12 nosecone from the 2008 grid, of the BMW F1.08 (AML839). As the race numbers on the BMWs this year were too high up the car to feature on the nosecone, you can happily buy this regardless of whether you are a Nick Heidfeld or a Robert Kubica fan!

The last thing to tell you about today is about a very limited signed replica that we have available. When we met up with the ‘caped crusaders’ Adam West (Batman) and Burt Ward (Robin) to sign Mattel’s 1:18 Elite and Foundation replicas of the 1960s TV series Batmobile, we had just seven of the extra special Super Elite version in stock. So we got them signed too, in a very exclusive limited edition of just seven examples (HW7131S). These were signed at the top of the metal base that the car sits on. Of the other two signed versions, by the way, the Elite edition (HW7130S) is now sold out, while the Foundation version (HW7132S) is currently available.
