Great review mate! Have the Spark on order since last year. For me, they are consistently better quality than Minichamps so I’m happy to pre order with confidence. The fan shop edition is the coolest though with the figure outside the car. Brings so much more emotion into the model!
Thanks! Indeed the fanshop edition is the most special one, but pure quality wise, I think the Spark has the most plusses.
Where do you pre order spark cars?
1/12 scale version hands down is the one to get. I have Max's Dutch GP on pre-order in 1/12. I can't wait to receive it.

Nice review mate 👍 I brought myself the spark one on the weekend, the display case looks really good and I like that it’s got the soft tyres on unlike the minichamps version,
Thanks! The display case is a very nice addition indeed. The choice of the hard tyre on the Minichamps is a pretty controversial one, almost as controversial as the Masi decision 😉!

Great review keep it up man. I’m loving it. You should do Hamilton 2014 cars and 2015 championship cars. Minichamps vs Spark
Thanks! I did a review of the Hamilton USA 2015 by Minichamps already on this channel.
As I don't have the 2014, nor the Spark models, making a video of those would be extremely difficult.

I think the window on the Spark's new packaging is there so dealer can see if front wing is intact or not before shipping it.
Shots fired!
For a fan the extra 40EUR for the soft tyres is hands down the better option. I have no clue why Minichamps decided on hard tyres when people want the softs.
It's Minichamps logic...
I think it's because of the deal with the Verstappen fanshop. It must stipulate their model is different from the fanshop, so therefor has another compound tyres.
The fact that the standard version also has the pitboard might have something to do with that too...

Hey, first of all great video. I do however think minichamps got the correct floor. The rod is a silver colour, just like in the race. Also that aluminum part on the floor was not visible on the rb16b in Abu Dhabi. Maybe I'm wrong, but I just can't find any pictures of it. I know Minichamps included the aluminum part on the floor in earlier models of the rb16b, so I guess they removed it for a reason..
Hi, thanks a lot for your comment!
By the floor being wrong, I mean the part in front of the rear wheels with all the strakes and floor edge. Here Minichamps didn't update theirs, whereas Spark did. The aluminium bootshaped floor coloring is I think indeed not correct, I think in that case, Spark did the lazy thing and just copied it from their earlier versions.
The rear suspension is actually very wrong on the Spark model apparently. The geometry of the lower wishbone should be different, and in deed the pullrod should be metallic and not black.
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars thanks for your response! It's unfortunate that spark uses the wrong suspension as well. Also like you mentioned, the way they apply their decals is the main reason I go for minichamps. It's a shame really, because the small details are so much better on spark models..
My biggest problem with spark ate the decals. There are a lot more noticeable with being stickers and it's small but annoys me.
They are very much a problem for them, indeed!
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars my Problem is the Front wing endplates , they are often crooked.

Cool model. Are the wheels static or do they move? I’m planning to purchase one

Minichamps wheels rotate
Part 5 will be the Amalgam 1:18 😂.
I'm probably going to regret it but I've placed an order for the Amalgam one 😬
Amalgam is out of my league!
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars I can just about justify the 1:18 but would need to sell a kidney for the 1:8 😁.
After seeing Spark's 1/12 scale version of the same car, I tend to think that one would be the one to get over the 1/18 Amalgam. Also about 1/2 the price of the Amalgam.
@@paulo9504 Thanks. I haven't seen an example of the Spark 1/12 model yet but will keep an eye out. According to an email I received when I placed the pre-order, the Amalgam will be officially approved by Adrian Newey!

Lol this series just keeps going
Part 4 is the final one... Maybe
Minichamps > Spark, imo, in the following areas:
1. Overall paint finish.
2. Decals
3. Tires
4. Wheels, though some will disagree.
The details are way off on Minichamps

Are the bodies of both cars metal? And without the the base, which one is heavier?
Spark is resin, Minichamps diecast metal. Dunno about the weight though. It felt as if the Spark model was slightly heavier, but it wouldn't be by much!
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars Are the Verstappen Shop editions resin?
@@paulo9504 I think only the 2015 and 2016 Toro Rosso, all 2016 Red Bulls and the 2017 Mexican and Malaysian GP models are resin. They have been diecast metal since 2018 I think.

I would love one in the white Japanese livery.
That livery was fire!
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars the RB16B in white is the sexiest f1 car since the V10 era. Specifically the West McLarens.
The flag on the spark looks like Luxemburg. The blue colour should look more like a darker blue. Its a small detail but a annoying one.
You mean on the pitboard? It is very light indeed, but looking at the pictures of the celebrations after the race (when the pitboard was actually used), the blue part is quite light. It might be due to the floodlights of the Yas Marina circuit though.
@@GreatChampionsTinyCars yeah on the pitboard, but i looked at what pictures and i see what you mean. On some pictures it looks like a lighter blue.
