1:18 diecast Minardi's???
I've always wanted to get a 1:18 Minardi for my diecast collection, but they always seem to do all the other teams in 1:18 apart from Minardi!!! WHY????
I'm sure that there are far more people who would buy a Minardi instead of, say for example, a Prost or an Arrows. If any of you know whether they'll be doing any 1:18 '02 Minardi's, please tell me.  Regards, Chris Smith. |

They just don't do 'em
 They never give a reason, I work in an F1 shop and we sell all the Minichamps and Hotwheels stuff, the Minardi's would sell but they just don't make them because Minichamp don't think they will

This has truly baffled me for an age too - surely more people would buy 1:18 Minardis than Arrows and Prosts put together? I've contacted several suppliers and none really know why Minichamps or any of the others won't make them.
However there are some cool 1:43 Minardis out soon - there is a PS-01 Christian Albers test car, plus both Alonso and Yoong's cars from the US GP when the livery was altered. |

Shameless Plug Alert!!
The shop I work at is getting the US GP specials in at the end of the month, including the Minardi's and Ralf with his US design Helmet. Have a look at http://www.tsf1.com for more information!!! |
