Strange... Where did you get your car, quiksilve? Do you still have the box? What number does it say? 530071802? From the baseplate, I take that it's from the MP4-22 2007 Showcar. But your car is MP4-23 ! Looks like you got a Team Edition MP4-23 car in a 2007 Showcar box...
Because for Hamilton, I think there's only one variant of the MP4-23 in 1/18 by Minichamps which is the Team Edition. Three variants of the MP4-22 (1st Win Canada, Team Edition 2007 and Showcar 2007) and 1 variant for the MP4-21 (Silverstone 2006 1st roll out). Only the Team Editions have the carboard box like myke's.
aurion: once again nice outdoor shots on the R8... i suppose KK sure has lots of great places for outdoor shots... the sea side view itself is considered stunning oredi... talking bout R8, theres a Suzuka Grey coming its way... saw it in Jacky's Motorsport website... super poison!!! suzuka grey is the special color offered by Audi... it looks like pearl white effect but this one looks perfect with darker wheels...
prodigy5031: omg... ur skyline n 350z...
Kiloweya: thanks for the valuable info... n i have to agree with u, light and heat will definitely harm diecast easily... so its better to open the cabinet door from time to time in order to let the diecasts 'breathe'... coz the air inside the cabinet is hotter than we expect...
Nemesis: nice attempt on car lighting! perhaps next time can ask for help from this fellow... he takes diecast lightings to the highest level!!! taken from the SGDC forum... other cars such as the M3 and R8 with lightings are simply awesome!
jchue73: wats in the box??? i still catch no ball...
woot... since when here has the Mclaren F1 fever??? guess the F1 thread is quiet now... i oso kiasu... i wana post mine!!! Hammy first win with bridge wing...

Don't think I'll be getting this one as there is no difference between the regular R8 and this Whitish Grey one with the exception of the Titanium/Gunmetal Coloured rims.

quicksilve: Your outer box serial number seems to correspond correctly to the MP4-23 Team Edition car. I may be wrong lah but I thought the 1/18 scale MP4-23 comes only in this box... I believe similar to myke's.
Jasonist: Patience ! Time will come and all will be told. Hey, spreading poison on the R8? Nice set of wheels.
BTW, your Hamilton 1st Win is very "common" lah. I have 2 here. <cabut> A typical case of ter-buy...
evoHahn: Wah... Oophs, sorry for the digress of F1 pics posted here. Did not realise about it.
DesmondC: Wah, nice nice... Enjoy your Trueno.
Kyosho Die Cast: Wah, you also bring in poison ! Mati lah.
jchue73: there are 3 version of MP4-23 in 1/18 scale.. Normal Edition(quiksilve), Team Edition(mine) & Champion Edition (with Hamilton figure) if i'm not wrong.
Jasonist: that is more sexy off white R8, quickly grab it if you can, it will be gone in seconds.
DesmondC: finally you found it! congrat bro! for your 1st diecast, beware of more poison in this thread. the hotworks tofu car lead my passion to here and i'm almost broke now
