Another Schumacher 1/18 Ferrari F248 Monza?


Hot Wheels have announced another version of Schumacher's Ferrari F248- Product # MAT6713 - "5x Italian GP Winner" - Monza 1996 1998 2000 2003 2006. Due for release September.
It is a Ltd. Ed. 5555pcs exclusively for the Hot Wheels importer in Italy. The car is mounted on a race track type base with Schumacher's 5 Italian GP victories listed. The above photo is only of a prototype model so it isn't yet known whether or not Hot Wheels will release the model with the correct aero package for Monza.

It appears this release is along the same lines as the "7 x Canadian GP Winner" F248 released in Canada, and "Danke Schumi" F248 released in Germany which have proved to be extremely popular.

Below is MAT2994 - Schumacher's 90th GP Win - with Monza Podium, which is also due to be released within the next few weeks. This features a leather base and podium figurine. Ltd.Ed. 9090pcs
