Hi everyone, first of all I am very sorry, that your models got damaged.
Second of all, you will all get replacements free of charge. I will change the packing style a little bit. I will put more sticker on the doors to keep the doors closed and I will wrap the whole car in bubble paper. Then I will put the model back in the frame packaging, so that the frame packaging is basically filled out completly with the bubble paper. That way, nothing will move in the frame packaging and also not in the box. The screws with which the model is screwed onto the baseplate I will put in a seperate envelope. Third of all it seems that certain parcels have been handled with bad care over at either customs or the local delivery company, since I had mostly positive replies from the US and Canada recipients until now. All of you, which received damaged models, please send me an e-mail and I will of course help you out! My mail address is mlang@minichamps.de Sorry again for the troubles! |

The models are limited so its first come, first served. Max Riviera Blue has also been nice enough to custom build the models IF you so desire(for an additional fee). Just send Max an email. mlang@minichamps.de take care, Dackel Quote:

Hi all,
I just wanted to say that I received my model last week. It was perfectly intact. There were no issues. There was one positive surprise. When I reached out to Max, he said if I send him my plate numbers he could customize my plate. Well I sent him an image of my plate, so there would be no misunderstanding of the letters/numbers. I just assumed Max would put the same numbers/letters on a German style plate. Well the positive surprise was that Max used the actual image of my plate! It really looks like my car in 1:18 scale. Thank you Max! Also, thank you Dackel for all your effort too. See images below. First is a side view of the model. Next is an actual picture of my car with the plate. Next is an image of the rear of the model, so you can see the plate. I do want to say a big thank you to Max, he was so responsive to my emails when I asked questions. It was really appreciated. Side view of model: Rear view of my actual 1M; Rear view of model: Thanks, Leif W. |

Well, I finally got my cars after what seemed forever; especially after having the first set arrive damaged.
But this whole saga couldn't go quietly away. The good news the cars arrived in good shape and basically intact. But when I pulled the MotoGP car out of the shipping box, I could hear something rattling around. I immediately knew that wasn't good. I pulled the car out the box and still couldn't figure out what was rattling around and where it was in the car. I ended up pulling apart the bottom of the car and found out the rattling was from the inside rear view mirror floating loose. I glued the mirror where it belonged and I think everything is good now. I haven't pulled the regular 1M out of the box yet to inspect it. But so far everything looked good. Max went ahead and had the black wheels installed on it. I might swap out the black ones with the silver ones to see if I like that look better. Max had also installed the front splitter lip and the replica license plate from my 135i. So here are some pictures of the MotoGP car with part of my Minichamps MotoGP bike collection. I have other Minichamps replicas. Max tells me the Repsol Honda in the last picture is a very rare one due to it being 1:6 scale. The way I took the picture doesn't give justice to how big this model is. The Yamaha bikes are all 1:12 scale closer to lining up with the 1:18 scale of the MotoGP car. |

Its not right that you a question to Max in an open forum. Shipping from Germany to the USA(and back!) sometimes takes time. Also sometimes the shipping company makes the sender wait until they issue a refund/insurance claim. That all takes time. I am sure Max is on the case. He won't stiff you. He will make things right.

I still have a New in Box with plastic wrapper Original car from the Welt, with receipt. Purchased while I was doing my ED. A second has sat on my table beside me since i got back from ED. Its crazy how many additional cars have been produced over the years since the original. Including Matchbox cars.

I received my AW 1M model from Max and it is perfect--exactly as I wanted, in perfect shape, and with the great custom touch of my license plate added by Max. It was packed very well and I was able to track shipping via the tracking information Max provided via email.
Max was a pleasure to deal with, and always very prompt, professional, and courteous in his communication with me. Thank you Max and Dackelone! |
