MINICHAMPS resource

[Wylie1]

As there are quite a few people on this site collecting these models, I thought I'd create a new post so that people can share suppliers, swap/ trade models and leave posts with details of models they're looking for.

[Wylie1]

I'll also get the ball rolling. I have a 2002 Rossi RCV possibly surplus to requirements.

I'm looking for a 2003 Hodgson 999. Anyone know where there's one for sale?

[adam]

I get mine from oh hang on a moment the grass needs cutting:lol:

I'm not interested in where you get yours, as all their shelves will be empty :frog:

Very good that made me chuckle. I think they may have re stocked by now.

[adam]

I get mine as most of the others do from

www.Swapmeet-models.co.uk
www.trax- models.co.uk
ebay worldwide
www.dhmi.co.uk.

I also just trawl the net looking for stuff. basically thats it.

Same as Adam, plus:

The Sheene bike has just come out so the JT bike cant be far off.

In addition to the web,I have bought models,(Minichamps and others) at various bike shows.There are usually model stalls at the NEC,BMF and the show that runs during Moto GP weekend.

[adam]

I have a shakey byrne 2002 for sale, Brand new in box.

[deej]

the jt one will be a while away yet

the sheene was annonuced 15 months ago and the 03 rossi valencia aint out yet but should be here around british gp time

[deej]

that dmhi lot are bloody cheeky if there a genuine minichamp dealer. £48.99 for a rutter macau bike thats ridiculous and £49.99 for a 2001 haslam gp bike, i doubt i'd get that for my signed one on ebay. i wont be using them for sure

[adam]

deej, DHMI deal straight from a house, i went and picked up a Chili 2003 bike and was amazed to see the address was a house. They are pricey with quite a few of their bikes. Chili cost me £38.99.

[deej]

yeah, they have a really strange pricing system

about 12 months ago i actually contacted minichamps about selling them through my website for a bit of cash but got no further than following up their reply, at least i know its possible now !!!!

when i return from honeymoon i will add a section on my website to minichamps so if all you guys email me photos/details of your collections i will do a full section on there. you'll have atleast 2 weeks to take your pictures before i start on this section

good idea or no ??

Still waiting for 2003 rossi Austin power valencia replica.. order was placed in October 2004 at Grand prix legends... does anyone already have it?? GP legends are telling me that should be out for June...

[adam]

[baylissboy]

I'm after a Bayliss 2003 Desmosedici if anyone knows of one!

I know of a Reynolds 2000 that's available,if anybody's interested!!

I use the same methods as you guys,i've done some good business with this guy; www.westoy.co.uk

[deej]

trax are hoping fingers crossed that the rossi valencia will be out just before the motogp at donington but being realisitic they arent expecting it until after that

gpl will tell you what you want to hear instead of the truth !!!

how much for the reynolds, silly money or sensible cash ???

im off to tenerife tomorrow and will see if i can find you a bayliss out there mate, did you try ringing the modlezone stores mate,if plymouth have 1 i can collect it for you

[dave996]

What bikes were released for WSB 2002?

I know of :-
Bayliss
Bostrom
Xaus
Hodgeson (I want one of these)
Toseland (I think) (I want one of these as well)

Any others?

[Twinfan]

Just the Chili NCR bike (the black 998)...

[dave996]

Is that the Monza special or his standard NCR?

[Twinfan]

There was no Monza special as far as I know. The model is referred to as an Imola special, but as far as I know it's the same bike he used all year.

[dave996]

That's what I meant:rolleye::rolleye::D

I'm working on a Bayliss 2003,but it's not in the UK,if i don't get it i'll be grateful if you let me know if you find one!

[deej]

yeah will do, i didnt expect the bayliss to sell out before the capirossi model

did they make the same or less bayliss models

not interested enough in the reynolds bike at that price
