minichamps are the 1's to collect and 1:12 is the scale to go for, the 1:6 scale doesnt seem as finely detailed for my liking,more remote control looking than a model

the hislop 02 title bike is rare as heck as they pulled it form production after his death, fetching £200+ on ebay, same story with kato

the older models are the 1's to collect thats why i have all 3 2000 models, didnt want the roberts 1 but it completes the set that could now be worth upto £500, the same reason i want the reynolds gsxr as that keeps my run of bsb champs going, similair story with the rossi set



the foggy 00 model isnt that rare as it was re-released for wdw so theres loads of those around

i use a company called trax models, get a monthly release sheet in the post and will hold your special orders, im still waiting for a couple but i trust them to send it me when theyre out, no payment and none of the crap i had dealing with grand prix legends

happy hunting guys, use your judgement on value and future demand before you pay silly money for say example a rutter rep, if you see the hislop grab it
