I'm actually thinking to sell the WDC 1/43 collection and switch to 1/18 (fewer cars obv because the prices are mad). There's just smth magic about 1/18 cars.]]> andreigp4 Off-TopicThu, 26 Dec 2019 23:37:11 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1126488#msg-1126488 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1126488#msg-1126488fongugp4.blogspot.com]
I'll be going featuring some of the 860 odd models I've had over the years]]> fongu Off-TopicTue, 22 Jan 2019 15:30:20 +0100 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1122660#msg-1122660 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1122660#msg-1122660
I am increasingly dissappointed by this model from Hot Wheels/Mattel. It's the 1994 Ferrari 412T1B from the British Grand Prix (the 2nd race with the B spec car) driven by Jean Alesi. That nose is just way too big and too high, the sidepods don't sweep forward, and the logos on the sidepods are massive. I do however like the wheel rims and the engine cover isn't bad at all, but perhaps more importantly the price is not extortionate!



I did replace it with this handbuilt Tameo model a little while back, but quite a few pieces fell off in transit and I haven't had a chance to repair it yet. This is the German Grand Prix version, where Gerhard Berger took it to victory. The shape of the sidepods could be more curvy, and the rear of the engine cover looks like an after-thought, but overall, a much nicer model.


With the increase in 1994 cars from Spark and Minichamps in recent years (not including re-packaged models from 20 years ago), I hope they will revisit this one.]]> fongu Off-TopicFri, 28 Sep 2018 12:01:01 +0200 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1122655#msg-1122655 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1122655#msg-1122655

am really impressed with the fine detail on this, the little silver stays that connect the various elements on the front wing, the little hoop that i think cuts the fuel flow if pulled, they're hard to see but they're on the engine cover right in the Bull's horn. and i love the matt blue finish, nicely recreated. the only thing i'd criticise is the engine cover hole is not really a hole, it's got a black "bung" in there. also the wheel rims seems glued to the suspension, so when i tried to rotate them to align the Pirelli logo, the front tyres turned but the rims didn't. i couldn't even turn the rear ones, i feared i'd break something. the 2017 cars should look impressive.]]> Muks_C Off-TopicSun, 21 May 2017 19:57:55 +0200 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1108929#msg-1108929 https://www.grandprixgames.org/read.php?5,358076,1108929#msg-1108929

No as the barely used Marlboro in that season (It got banned after Monaco) and it is the spec from Australia which didn't run Marlboro there anyway.
