guys, my Jenson 1:18 RA106 arrived the other day, i finally went to collect it at the post office this afternoon.

I have to say, it is probably my favourite 1:18 F1 model I have ever seen, it just looks so good.

Photos coming a bit later on!


Jenson drives it like he owns it; Lewis drives it like he stole it

Good Spot there Gui. We await the pictures Dan

Hey guys, sorry to keep bumping this ole' thread up!

But anyway, I have recently been secretly scheming myself whilst I wait for my Jenson first Win Model to come out, and was not impressed with the lack of individuality of current F1 1:18 model figures.

In conclusion, long story short, I am currently working out a way to mass produce soem custom figures for 1:18 models.

Right now, theyre pretty much just resin, and primed in white. Depending on sales and how many I can shift, and how much they are going to cost to batch bulk and make, I might and do intend to sell some in plain resin/white, basic team colours (add your own decals which I hope to be making with some friends), or completed figuires to plonk on your models.

So yeah, I know it is naughty to post adverts, but I am really after feedback, and also, to help spread the word to anyone in the scale diecast world who may just be interested! (surplus sales, distrobuters, individal orders and interest - just want an idea of what I could be getting in terms of purchases!)

Thanks a heap in advance... here are some resin pics...1:18 scale, i think if I remember it was about 8-9cm tall head to toe excluding arm height, whatever it was was taken from my minichamps figure for scale comparisons!

Ignore the base, it was for casting purposes!

Wow that's very good! Maybe you can close a deal with Minichamps and swim in the cash after a few years :P

I call shotgun on principal investor! PM me

Dan, PM me, I'm interested! It sounds brilliant!

Danny boyo, very nice to see you coming out with it! On MSN I couldn't tell but here I notice the helmet is slightly crooked to the driver's left side and the line on the left isn't going as high. Tell that to Mr. Wing Jin Kawin Ya-Yo-Bin so he can fix it, and make a chocolate version too :P

They look great Dan!

Just bought an 1:12 scale Lego Ferrari , will show photos when finished built

looks great Dan. who sculpted it? also, i think it would look good with the base still attached, but in a larger 1:6 scale figurine (around 12 tall" of your favourite driver.

also, please post pics of your Button 1st Win model, haven't seen any pics yet.
