Vat Inc. €89.95 1984 Monaco Grand Prix. Ayrton Senna, in his sixth Formula 1 appearance, makes an authentic masterpiece. After qualifying 13th, the Brazilian becomes the author of an incredible comeback and, in the rain, manages to reach Alain Prost's McLaren who is leading the race. Only the decision of the race director Jacky Ickx to expose the checkered flag after 31 of the 77 laps, due to the difficult conditions of the track, deprives the Brazilian driver of an almost certain victory. However, Senna manages to conquer second place and his first career podium, as well as the first for the Toleman team. Driving the TG184 in addition to Senna was also the former motorcycle champion Johnny Alberto Cecotto, who with it was the victim of a serious accident during the free practice of the British Grand Prix which was raced in July of that year on the Brands track Hatch. The Italian-Venezuelan was seriously injured in both legs and this forced him to definitively stop his promising career in Formula 1.

The Danhausen company of Aachen, Germany, began producing its own series of handcrafted 1:43 models under the names Metal 43, Plumbies, SD Models and Minichamps in 1974. Between 1976 and 1990, AMR produced over 70 different Minichamps models for Danhausen. The mass production of highly detailed die-cast model cars, marketed under the name Minichamps, began in China in 1990 and marked a real revolution in the field of model making, with high quality products at extremely competitive prices. Minichamps models are developed in Germany, but production and assembly takes place in the Far East. In less than ten years Minichamps practically became the reference in the diecast sector. In 2004 the first resin miniatures were introduced. Over the years other scales have been developed significantly, including 1:18. The Maxichamps range, which includes affordable reissues of older Minichamps items, was introduced in 2016.
