Hi...yeah i do agree about the fact that the #8 WEST mclaren is not a big deal...i don't find it very special either...i got the chance to buy them both and of course the fact i wanted them so bad is because is a very rare piece for collection....as you said....and of course because it's a mac....
anyway about the minichamps not recognizing that they have produced a 1/12 dark silver is very funny...hehehe

why would they hide that the model exists?
i think i will buy some books with the history of PMA minichamps..i'm very curious about that.
