- My review of the Minichamps 1:18 diecast model of the Mercedes AMG F1 W11 from the 2020 Turkish GP as driven by Briton Sir Lewis Hamilton. By winning this race, Hamilton became the 2020 F1 World Champion, winning it for the 7th time, equalling Michael Schumacher.

Love your channel appreciate your passion and knowledge.
The sport and the replicas.
Thanks, always nice to share the passion with others!
Great Video!👍. I just managed to purchase the last remaining model on the minichamps website 😅. My first model purchase and not a bad one, it just had to be done😂.
Great beginning to the collection that one!
Hey man, love your reviews! I have the same quirk regarding Minichamps' helmet dull helmet visors and was wondering if you have a video or instructions on how you insert the film over the original helmet visor to make it closer to life like in this vid. Thanks a bunch mate!
Hello there, thanks a lot for watching the video!
The film I used on the visor is an adhesive vinyl, so I just needed to cut it and simply place it on the helmet.
It takes a bit of trial and error to get the correct shape to cover the existing visor...
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars ahhh ok got it! Yeah guess I’ll trial and error it myself. Cheers man
I ordered two W11 from Minichamps, one is the same edition as yours and the other one is the Eifel GP 91 wins. The Eifel GP one arrived today, got the same typo on the helmet as well 😂😂😂
I guess they used the same decal for all the models, yeah.
Next time would you show the model before your modification along with after please😬! Sometimes your improvements are too good comparing to the stock ones, but I watch your videos as purchasing advice. And if you can, could you by any chance make a video on how you make improvement to the model? Thank you! I really love collecting racing cars and really love your channel!
Thanks for the feedback! I initially wanted to include the unboxing footage in this review video, so that you can indeed also see the model in ''stock'' condition.
I can try adding the detailing process. The problem with that is that it's difficult to actually film it. It's precision work and i'm pretty much with my face against the model, so there not much room for a camera there. I'll think about how to make it work and try to include it in the next videos. Another factor is that I keep modifying models over and over. Some modelcars I've reviewed already look a lot different now to how they looked like when the video was made...
It's nice to hear your feedback though, and I'll give your ideas a try! Thanks for watching my videos!
Hi, are the dust "molded" together with the black paint, or can be easily wiped/blown away?
The greyish dirt that is standard on the model is fixed. You can rub it off though I noticed, but it's a tedious job and it could potentially scratch the paint layer underneath.
The extra dirt effects I added myself (on the sidepods for instance) can be simply wiped off...
Is there any chance you could tell me how you added those effects On the tires they look really good and the helmet?
I used black and greyish brown chalk crayons shavings, mixed with a bit of water, for the added race dirt on the car and tyres.
Spark or Minichamps? I bought both of them. nice rewiew man.
That's also a good option! :D I was thinking of doing the same for the Gasly Monza model.
Can I ask how you add all those little tyre markings? Like that barcode and other details?
Check out my review of the Red Bull RB1, there is a segement on how I do the tyres at around 7:13.

@@GreatChampionsTinyCars Thanks!
Good morning,
My name is Bruno and I'm Brazilian, I'm looking to buy the Turkish W11 but I'm in doubt between Minichamps with the race details or Spark without the details, could you help me?
Hi Bruno
The fact that I bought the Minichamps version kinda gives it away I prefer the Minichamps. I mainly wanted to see with my own eyes what they had done to the tyres and racedirt. It's not perfect, but I like they went somewhere different.
I honestly think the Spark model is maybe slightly better detailed, but for me, the Minichamps version tells the story of that race, whereas the Spark model, is just another (good) modelcar.
Hey mate, how did you tint the helmet visor?
I used a adhesive tinting film and cut it out to shape. The visor has now been swapped to a more realistic red iridium color.
Hi, serious question. Do you sell some modelcars? If so how can I contact you? I believe you live in Belgium and myself in the Netherlands so shipping cost is affordable. Hope to hear from you
Hi mate. I'm Belgian indeed. You can contact me through my Instagram page which has the same name. IG: GreatChampionsTinyCars.
Cheers!
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars great, just send you a message
compared to spark at 1/18 which is better if you have the other model?
For me, I prefer the Minichamps model. The Spark has better small details, but I do like how the Minichamps is something different with the worn tyres.
You can't really go wrong on either one. They both have strong and weak points.
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars I appreciate, I'm looking at both models and can't make up which one to go for, lol, tough decision , I want good build quality and durability
@@E24G If you got the Spark model, you could wear the tyres down using sandpaper yourself, to copy the Minichamps tyres.
Hi there, would you mind share with the link to order this model car, thanks a lot ;)
The standard version is readily available at several diecast shops.
This version I have with the different box art comes from CK-Modelcars, but they have all been sold I think.
you could put the video so that you can download it in youtube downloads please
I'll try to figure out how to do that, sure!
The BLM error seems intentional. I have the Spark version of this car, and the "matters" is not correctly spelt.
It's something I thought too. Maybe the manufacturers don't want to make a political statement and purposefully made a small typo...
Nice review, thank you. And never forget, Balck Lives Matter.
According to Minichumps it does :)
the paint is better, the helmet, the wings, more details
You can't really compare paint as the Spark model is a 'clean' one and the Minichamps is supposed to look dirty.
The helmet and wings are up for debate though.
Oh man the typo!
It's a bit painfull. Luckily you can't really see it. I only spotted it when editting the video.
But when you know it's there, you always think about it then...
The video ends just because you regrets about "Black lives matters" logo
It's a free world :-)
spark is much better
Ok, fair enough. You're free to have a different point of view.
“Balck lives matter”. Too bad for not paying attention to details
Yeah. It almost makes you wonder if Minichamps did it on purpose, to not have to pay royalties for using the logo? Or maybe they want to secretly say they don't support the BLM movement?
Or they just weren't paying attention when making the decal. Anything is possible with Minichamps...
to be honest your guts is wrong
How can an opinion be wrong? It's very much possible that you don't agree with what I'm saying, but those are two totally different things... 🙄
