SPORTS CARS

MINI GT is no stranger to detailed 1/64 models and these new luxury sports sedans look amazing. In fact, a recent chat with collectors in the UK has us understanding that MINI GT popularity is growing really well and the main point has been the attention to detail and the way MINI GT is growing HOTWHEELS collectors out of that brand and into theirs.

When MINI GT first introduced the Bentley BACALAR, we lost our minds. It was as beautiful as the real thing and the only way middle class plebs like us can have a go at owning one. What makes MINI GT so special is that the colours chosen for their models are usually the same factory created colours that go on the car. This is also one of the benefits of having proper licenses from the manufacturers so that we get cars in perfect detail right down to the paint code.

Getting a second one from MINI GT is just a treat because in real life the Bacalar has been commissioned to be built by only 12 customers so far and Bentley are in no hurry to increase those orders keeping it super exclusive. The new release by MINI GT is based on Bentley’s test car which was decked out in that great dark racing green. It even has the stamp on the side saying it is the test version. That’s how close Bentley play it, they don’t want people to even think that there is a colour variation for sale.

The wheels roll and of course one of the coolest things about this car are those tornado type rims specifically designed by Bentley which, MINI GT has done a brilliant job in 1/64. In total this casting is just as good as the first one which was epic. It even paired well with our scalite half body figure.

From exclusive to something a little more attainable in the real world. The BMW M4 Competition in Sao Paulo Yellow (it looks more green if you ask us) but in terms of details once again MINI GT has killed it. We especially once again, love the detail on the wheels which is not an easy thing to replicate.

From Bentley to BMW these super luxury speeders from MINI GT are becoming fast favourites and the world is demanding more and more and more.

just keeps surprising with new models in incredible styles combining pop culture with car and scale model culture which is something we absolutely love!

‘One Piece’ is a Manga comic turned series and even animated movie with a huge following across the world. It is so popular that it gained an entry in the Guiness Book of Records for "the most copies published for the same comic book series by a single author".

Not an easy feat believe us we’ve tried. But that’s not all, the series has won several accolades for breaking both print and animation records globally so if you are like us who haven’t gotten into the phenomena yet obviously it’s worth the time.

For Tarmac Works it is a great opportunity to get in with pop culture and make use of some the awesome casting they have coupling them with unique art from the series based on the characters.
