Bunker Talk: Formula 1 Two

Tuesday, November 18, 2025

This time in orange.

Same car as yesterday, but a different color.

The box comes inside the plastic package and so is a nice nod to the collectors market, I think.

The model comes with a drive, I like that, few die cast cars have drivers.

Nice looking car.

It is good to have a variety.

Even after a few more trips to the store, I have been unable to secure all 6 colors.

Still I got four of them and they look great together.

1/72nd scale figure for size comparison.

I am happy with these, I have always enjoyed road racing but I have too many hobbies now!

Roger said...: I really like the look of these vintage classic race cars. It would be nice to make some kind of 'rules' for them so they could be used for a game. Perhaps a race something like I tried out in the Benchy Battle wargame review?
Too many hobbies??!!!

I think a race car game would not be too hard to do, there are already horse and chariot racing games. Modifiers for the skill of the driver, speed and reliability of the cars. I read recently the Lotus Formula 1 in this era was faster but less durable than the BRM car and it cost them a few races.; November 19, 2025 at 7:25 PM
