Collect the most iconic MotoGP bikes in miniature form – start at £9.95 and upgrade to giant 1:12 replicas.

MotoGP Miniature Die-Cast Series Launch – 1:18 Scale Models

The MotoGP™ world has never been more accessible to collectors. A new 1:18 scale die-cast series, encompassing the most celebrated liveries and riders, is set to ship free of charge beginning in November 2026. Enthusiasts can begin their journey with two flagship models for just £9.95 each – a remarkable discount compared with the regular £15.99 price tag. The launch package pairs Valentino Rossi’s 2020 Jerez test Yamaha YZR-M1 with Marc Márquez’s 2025 championship-winning Ducati Desmosedici GP25, giving fans a taste of recent history and future promise.

What the collection delivers

Each miniature is crafted at 1:18 scale, reproducing chassis lines, graphics and sponsor decals with painstaking accuracy. The series is slated to feature ninety distinct motorcycles, spanning the evolution of the premier class from the early 2000s to the present day. Highlights include a 2011 Honda RC212V ridden by Marco Simoncelli, a 2009 Yamaha YZR-M1 from Rossi’s Misano appearance, and upcoming 2024-2025 Ducati machines that showcase the latest aerodynamic concepts.

Iconic liveries and rider tributes

Collectors will find celebrated colour schemes such as Rossi’s “Flower Power” Honda RC211V from the 2003 Valencia Grand Prix, the Laguna Seca special Yamaha YZR-M1 (2005), and Pecco Bagnaia’s British Grand Prix-edition Ducati Desmosedici GP24 (2024). The catalogue also promises exclusive variants that have never before been reproduced in miniature form, turning each release into a sought-after collector’s item.

How the subscription works

Subscriptions are organised on a monthly basis. The introductory box arrives 19–26 business days after payment is confirmed and contains the two debut models at the promotional £9.95 price. The second issue follows the same schedule but bundles two standard-priced models (£15.99 each) plus a third model offered free of charge. From the third month onward, each parcel delivers three bikes, all priced at £15.99.

All handling and postage are covered by the publisher, and free shipping commences in November 2026. To keep the collection tidy, shoppers receive a slip case for every twentieth model (positions 20, 40, 60 and 80). Each case holds up to twenty miniature magazines and is sold for £7.99, with the first slip case – delivered alongside model 6 – provided at no cost.

Premium upgrade – the 1:12 showcase

For an additional £1 per issue starting with issue 6, subscribers unlock the Premium Offer. This upgrade distributes seven massive 1:12 scale die-cast replicas across the subscription timeline. The set includes: Valentino Rossi’s 2014 Yamaha YZR-M1, the “Flower Power” 2003 Honda RC211V, the 2004 test-spec Yamaha YZR-M1, the 2005 USA-GP Yamaha special, Dani Pedrosa’s 2012 Honda RC213V, Pecco Bagnaia’s 2024 British-GP Ducati Desmosedici GP24, and Marc Márquez’s 2025 “Renacimiento” Ducati Desmosedici GP25. These larger models arrive incrementally, ensuring a steady flow of high-impact collectibles.

Frequently asked questions

How are orders processed? The pre-order function reserves a spot before the collection goes live, guaranteeing early-bird pricing and priority shipping. Once the launch date passes, payment is captured and the first parcel dispatched.

What if a gift runs out of stock? In the unlikely event a promised item cannot be supplied, the publisher replaces it with an alternative of equal or greater value, preserving the overall value of the subscription.

Can I cancel? Yes, cancellation is permitted at any time. It is advisable to give a 28-day notice to avoid having the next shipment already in transit, as the publisher cannot halt deliveries once they have left the warehouse.

Will prices ever change? The publisher reserves the right to adjust issue prices if there are significant increases in production, sourcing, transport, postage or tax rates. Any such change will be communicated to subscribers before it takes effect.
