    I know stupid question, but I just wanted to see a raise of hands and hear what F1 you would like to see as an Elite or Super Elite 1:18.

    I think I would want the F310...

    hi
    what i would like to see done would be michael schumacher,s first win
    in the spainish gp,mininchamps did it with rain tyres also with slicks
    so that would be my choice,although i dont think hotwheels can compete
    with the quality of minichamp f1 models

    Hot Wheels kinda sucks, so I wouldn't buy it.

    They are actually coming up with a couple models like that. There is this "Michael Schumacher retirement collection".
    It includes
    Final GP win - China- Just got it- it is total crap
    Last Monza GP - still to come out- any time now
    Last race- Brazil- maybe Sept.
    Anatomy of a champion- with jumping Schumi figurine and half the car painted black (CF)
    Then there comes this display with the car open, with engine detail. It also is supposed to list all of Schumi's career achievements. This would be as close as HW would get to making "Elite" F1.
    Now, according to the grapevine EXOTO are in the making of a modern Ferrari F1. Well, they have been in the making of it for years now, but you know how it is with them. I may live to see it as a retirement present.

    Exoto is lately in the bad habit (to me at least) of releasing new models that were only recently announced. There are so many models (ie 250 GTO) that they announced years ago but never released. Exoto, release what you have promised over the years before jumping on new projects!!

    Exoto never seems to release cars when they say they will. It's always a waiting game but well worth it.

    Yes, that could be a great idea, but hope that they [Mattel] don´t lower the quality of the regular ones, in order to have an Elite series...
