We have a slew of new material to share from Minichamps this week. Scales include 1:18 and 1:43. The feature model is the 1:18, sealed diecast metal Porsche 911 Carrera 4S 2019 in Yellow. With the Black accents on top, this car does look stellar! Retail is less than 90 Euros. The reset is for review below.

lack of well defined shut lines completely ruins the model for me :-(
It is very bad news for all of us collectors, again a model that has the profile for full openings falls into the cheapie category, and even then shutlines are terrible. Lets hope that Almost Real or some one else that has some self respect can do something about this.
After 600+ models in my collection, it seems it is reaching the end……….
It seems Minichamps has resided to the budget replkica, definitely not what the brands was founded on. As always, vote with your wallet!
