GP Replicas Brings Back Senna’s McLarens and Schumacher’s F2002 — Diecast News Roundup, September 15
GP Replicas has listed twenty-four historic Formula One references for the first quarter of 2027 — Senna’s 1992 and 1993 McLarens, Schumacher’s F2002 in 1:12, Alboreto’s 156/85 and the Benetton B194. Tecnomodel has twenty of its own, twelve of them the 1965 Ford GT40 Roadster in six liveries across two scales. Also: BBR adds seven colours to the 812 GTS, KK-Scale has a 1957 Buick station wagon, and Mini GT opens six new pre-orders.
KK-Scale has a 1965 Buick Riviera coming in four colours, and one of them is named after Road House — the fourth film car the company has tooled in three weeks. Also: Tecnomodel announces nine in 1:18 including a Lamborghini 400 GT Monza in five colours, Spark opens twenty-seven new 1:43 references, AUTOart adds four Chargers and a Guards Red 930, and MR Collection builds a Revuelto exactly once.
ACME is importing a 1:43 Mitsubishi Evo IX with opening doors, hood and trunk and a detailed engine, at $109.95. Also: BBR invents the Sculpture Concept and limits it to 144, KK-Scale has the Back to the Future II Hilux, and WERK83 adds four more 1961 sharknose Ferraris.
BBR and Bburago both booked replicas of Ferrari’s Schumacher tribute livery before the SF-26 turned a wheel at Monza. Also: LookSmart commits to twenty-two Ferraris, and one of them is listed as the wrong car.
The revived GMP line has its second car and its first hard edition figure: 402 pieces of the 1969 Camaro Street Fighter RHINO at $164.95, with orders closing 10 September. Sun Star adds a fourth 1:18 Lincoln in four days and this one is an Elvis Presley car, WERK83 books a Steve McQueen Sebring Porsche for 18 September, and MR Collection announces an Aventador SVJ limited to five pieces.
Top Marques takes on the Ferrari 412 P in four liveries, Bugatti’s Destrier gets its first scale replicas, TopSpeed’s 2026 IMSA GT3 wave lands — and the tariff picture for imported models got worse, not better.
