Three Out Of Four Ain’t Bad!

posted in Due Dates, Diecast, Formula 1 |

Today we received some samples from Mattel.

It was good to see three examples from their 1:43 Ferrari 200 Grand Prix wins collection, as we haven’t heard much about that since it was announced just over a year ago. The samples we received were of Ferrari’s 50th win, Niki Lauda in the 1974 Spanish Grand Prix (HW5601B); 100th win, Alain Prost in the 1990 French Grand Prix (HW5602B); and 150th win, Michael Schumacher in the 2002 Canadian Grand Prix (HW5603B).

There was also a 1:18 sample of Schumacher’s 1:18 Ferrari F2007 test car ‘race suit special’, from his test at Barcelona towards the end of 2007 (HW5423). It is a limited edition of 5,555 pieces worldwide.

It looks like it is going to be a productive first quarter of the year for Mattel!
