    Hey guys, just wondering if anyone else on the site is collecting these? They are 1:43 scale models that come out every fortnight. They are relatively detailed for just $20 and you also get a magazine with a bunch of info on the cars and how they performed that season. I think they are awesome and have got 6 shelves up on my wall waiting for the entire collection of 60 :eek:
    Heres mine thus far.... only 14 weeks in, sorry for the quality!


    If anyone is interested, i'll put the entire list of cars being released that i know of so far in this spoiler :)

    If you read the subscription paper it tells you when the cars/trucks come. I believe the Brabham fan car is as late as the 30th edition?
    Wonder which car you're most excited for.... the green one or the white blue and gold one.... :p

    I don't care much for the trucks but the Jordan 191 can't come soon enough.

    I was interested in this, but none of the newsagents around where I live bothered to continue stocking this collection after the first issue - so I've only got Senna's MP4/4 at the moment. Didn't want to subscribe to the collection as I don't really want each and every model from it.

    I've got a bunch of other F1 models though, most of which are of more obscure drivers and teams than what is featured in this collection - will put a few photos of them up soon.

    That too but they seem to be doing "iconic" cars, despite it being leaps and bounds better than the FW18 the 19 isn't a well remembered car...

    Here's my collection
    I'm waiting on more f1s I missed should have more f1s in the new year. Most recent is Brocks VK. I don't know how to upload photos on my !@#$ laptop so I thought I would just make a video instead.

    I prefer to make mine which I think is a bit cheaper.
