		<description><![CDATA[The big news today was that we received one of the most popular models in the history of Diecast Legends!
It was, of course, the 1:43 Lewis Hamilton ‘First Podium’ special, of his McLaren MP4/22 from the 2007 Australian Grand Prix (DC27402A). It is a limited edition of 9,999 pieces worldwide. And, while that may not [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s been one of those quieter days today, but I suppose we were due one after all the diecast that has been released so far this summer!
We did receive one new release though, Revell’s 1:18 Opel Manta 400 presentation car (RV8819), so there was still something going on!

It included two new subjects in the ever more popular 1:43 White Line collection; the Porsche 911 Carrera (P063021), and the Bentley Continental GTC (P139031). There was also the 1:18 Mercedes 300SL Roadster (PG039030), and Takuma Sato’s 1:43 2002 Jordan EJ12 testcar (P024399).

However, they have come through at £29.99 each, not £26.99 as we had assumed, so those of you who have pre-ordered from us early have saved £3 each on those two figures! Just to clarify, these are the [...]]]></description>

Today we received their two new 1:18 1982 Audi Quattro rally cars, of Malcolm Wilson (SS4192) and Franz Witmann (SS4191). Also on the delivery were the bronze (SS4976) and blue (SS4977) colourways of the 1:18 Ford Escort Mk.III, and the next 1:24 Bedford OB Coach, in the Southdown livery (SS5007).

		<description><![CDATA[Today we received the new 1:18 Ford Focus WRCs from Sun Star. These are the ones that have come through at the ‘old’ retail price of £29.99, so will probably sell out quite quickly before the other versions become available, which will be at the ‘new’ retail price of £39.99.
