Tin Wizard Announces 1:43 Duesenberg SJ “Mormon Meteor” for Holiday 2011

White metal has long been a material of choice for crafting 1:43 models, and though the aptly-named German model company Tin Wizard has also used resin in the past, we’re betting that they’ll be potting a batch or two of alloy for an upcoming holiday-time release – the 1935 Duesenberg SJ “Mormon Meteor”. The Meteor […]
Brooklin 1:43 1937 Lincoln Le Baron Convertible: White Metal Wonder

Brooklin 1:43 1937 Lincoln Le Baron Convertible: White Metal Wonder

Trying to define what makes Brooklin collectors so fanatical about the models they love isn’t hard – especially once you start grouping more than a couple of the models together. That’s not to say that any one of these British-born creations aren’t entertaining as solo pieces. They’re wonderfully well built, beautifully finished off, and hefty […]

Hot Wheels Elite 1:43 Ferrari 250GT SWBs: Power Trio

Mattel knows a thing or two about manufacturing might; the toy giant has long been a model for concept-to-consumer planning in the hobby and games segment, with licensing, delivery, and market awareness playing into its every move. A few years back, that included a boost to the Hot Wheels brand vis a vis a groundbreaking […]

ABC 1:43 “Hayworth” Cadillac: The Royal Treatment

Hollywood royalty just ain’t what it used to be, especially when it comes to cars. Off-the-shelf blinged Escalades, store bought Ferraris, Bentleys, and Lambos (or their “green” nemeses – eco-friendly, celebrity-driven Priuses and Volts), simply lack star-level visual impact when heaving up to the curb. Back in the good old days, things were different – […]

MiniMarque 1:43 Packards: Sweet and Elite

MiniMarque (a/k/a MiniMarque 43) has been around for a long time, providing 1:43 collectors with a series of delightful, hand built white-metal bodied cars. These fetch a premium, but they’re bedecked with some very slick detailing, done, more often than not, with painstakingly rendered photo etched metal and sweet lensing. These three Packards – a […]

Minichamps 1:43 BMW Z4M: Ultimate Bull

You would think that a German model car company making a model of a German car would be a perfect match – and in the case of this Minichamps BMW Z4M “Red Bull” racing coupe, modeled after the winning car shared by Quester, Mullen, Stuck, and Werner at the 2006 24 hours of Silverstone, you’d […]
Minichamps’ 1:43 Audi R8 LMS: Phoenix, Risen

Minichamps’ 1:43 Audi R8 LMS: Phoenix, Risen

Stuck, Biela, Stippler and Basseng isn’t a law firm – but pity the unfortunate who comes before them on a track, especially if they’re taking turns piloting the likes of this Audi R8 LMS. That was on the docket in 2009, when Team Phoenix brought the car to the Nürburgring-Nordschleife to claim a GT3 victory […]
