It is a packed week in the world of scale models, blending headline promotions with some of the most exciting new announcements of the year. The big news is Tameo’s unveiling of one of the most sought after F1 kits in years, celebrating Lauda’s 1975 Ferrari 312T. Alongside it, our 1:18 Sale delivers major reductions on centrepieces from Spark, LookSmart and BBR — from Le Mans legends to F1 winners. BBR Competition has mapped Ferrari’s 2025 endurance campaign, and Tecnomodel shines a light on one of Ferrari’s more controversial Le Mans stories. Add in fresh road and rally pre orders from Ixo, Werk83 and Mini GT, plus the glamour of Goodwood Revival and the fallout from Monza, and collectors have plenty to enjoy this week..
Formula 1 & Endurance Monza Highlights and Ferrari Futures
The headline this week is Tameo’s Ferrari 312T Monza 1975 1:24 kit, celebrating the race where Niki Lauda clinched his first world championship. Crafted entirely in white metal with uncompromising detail, the kit features fully opening bodywork and intricate mechanical components that set a new standard for authenticity. Tameo’s reputation for precision ensures this will be one of the most sought after kits in years — a true centrepiece project that builds into a jewel like replica of Ferrari’s championship winner.
Supporting the headline kit, LookSmart marks Ferrari’s current SF25 with special 50th anniversary Niki Lauda tributes from the Italian GP in 1:64, 1:43 and 1:18, plus matching 1:5 helmets for Leclerc and Hamilton. BBR mirrors Monza across both 1:43 hand built and 1:18 diecast scales with Leclerc P4 and Hamilton P6, and adds a connoisseur’s choice in the LaFerrari F150 Preserie PS1 (1:43).
For endurance fans, BBR Competition have opened pre orders for a full Ferrari 499P podium set from Qatar 1812kms 2025 and a trio of Ferrari 296 GT3s from Daytona 2025 (Cetilar, AF Corse and Dragonspeed), available in both 1:43 and 1:18.
Spotlight SALE on 1:18 Icons
Another headline this week with the Monza and Ferrari news, is our Sale on our featured 1:18 models in stock, bringing serious savings on Spark, LookSmart and BBR centrepieces, with £10–£40 off while stocks last.
It is a greatest hits reel: BBR’s Alfa Romeo 4C Matt Grey, Ferrari 488 GT3 Press 2020 and Purosangue Panorama Roof; Spark’s Le Mans icons Aston Martin DBR1 1959 Shelby Salvadori, Audi R8 2000 Kristensen Pirro Biela, Porsche 936 1977 Ickx Barth Haywood, Sauber Mercedes C9 1989, plus Daytona’s Porsche 962 1987 Lowenbrau; F1 winners and podium cars including Red Bull RB19 Bahrain and Qatar Sprint, Mercedes W13 Brazil 2022 Russell, McLaren MCL60 Monaco Norris, and LookSmart’s Ferrari F1 75, SF21 and SF23 Sainz. Few endurance cars capture the dominance of Group C like the Sauber Mercedes C9, and Spark’s 1:18 resincast of the 1989 Le Mans winner #63 is a standout at £139.95, offering collectors the chance to secure a true endurance icon at a rare reduced price.
Rally Road & Le Mans Oddities
On Rally and Road, Ixo readies a budget friendly batch for September. Highlights include the 2024 Toyota Yaris Rally1 Ogier Finland win, Rovanpera Finland and Pajari Sweden, a 1969 Chevrolet Camaro Yenko, 1981 VW Golf Cabriolet, and 1:18 road classics Fiat 124 1970 and Lada 1200 1971.
Mini GT tees up Sainz Moya’s Lancia Delta Integrale Evo Monte Carlo 1993 for early next year in small scale but big nostalgia.
For Le Mans oddities, Tecnomodel’s Ferrari 308 GT4 LM (1:43) is available to pre order covering the 1974 DNF, the 1975 non qualifier that sparked Luigi Chinetti’s dramatic team withdrawal, plus a press car. It is a quirky but historically fascinating trio that captures a rare chapter of Ferrari endurance history.
