Yes, I've noticed those. They look stunning.

I'd love a BMW Sauber, have to see if I can get some cash saved.

They have announced a Robert Kubica model also... but that doesn't seem to be available yet.

Since we're on the subject of models my new F1.06 will tag onto the end of my line-up, which goes as follows:

(1/18th)

BMW Sauber F1.06 - Nick Heidfeld
BMW.Williams F1 FW 27 - Nick Heidfeld
BMW.Williams F1 FW 26 - Juan Pablo Montoya
BMW.Williams F1 FW 25 - Juan Pablo Montoya
BMW.Williams F1 FW 24 - Ralf Schumacher
BMW.Williams F1 FW 23 - Ralf Schumacher
BMW.Williams F1 FW 22 - Ralf Schumacher
Benetton BMW B 186 - Gerhard Berger
Brabham BMW BT52 - Ricardo Patresse

2000 BMW V12 LMR - Martini, Dalmas, Winkelhock
1997 McLaren F1 GTR Longtail - Cox, Ravaglia
1984 BMW 635 CSi European Touring Car Championship - Quester
1983(?) BMW M1 LeMans 'BMW France' - Quester, Pironi, Mignoti
1976 BMW 3.5 CSL Batmobile - Stuck, Petersen
1940 BMW 328 Mille Miglia Streamliner (No. 72)

I've only got one 1/43 model, 1992 BMW M3 DTT - Sabine Schmidtz

I've also got about 10 other road car 1/18th's.

Nice... taken me a couple of years to get this far, the Brabham and the Benetton where the two most expensive, the 1940 Mille Miglia car is probably the best actual model.

Anyway.. excuse the indulgence.

yeah upon closer inspection (whilst trying to find room for it on my shelves) it is a bona fide launch car - at first it looked like a not-quite-right F1.06 or a not-quite-right C24 - but then I never was that familiar with the C24.

Also upon closer inspection it is obvious why the PMA/Minichamps models are so much more expensive than the hotwheels racing ones - I might start chopping in some of my Hotwheels Williams' for Minichamps as and when they come up on eBay.

Yes, Hot Wheels do skip a bit of detail. To be fair they do release thier models nice and quickly, but at what price?
