This is the part where we Aston Martin fans, who were hoping maybe we’d get die cast instead of resin models, all chant in unison “OH COME ON!”
COME ON MINICHAMPS LOL!
On top of Minichamps taking that stupid resin/stuck wheels route, the fact that Aston Martin is doing terrible already 3 races in a row really does add insult to injury. Apparently, we have a better chance at seeing Al Pacino going ice skating with Jason Alexander than we do of Minichamps creating proper 1/18 die cast cars like they used to and none of this sealed/resin BS combined with Aston Martin F1 team getting their act together.
