The Gordon Murray Automotive T.50s is a hardcore, track-only weapon named after triple F1 world champion and Murray's former Brabham teammate Niki Lauda. The T.50s takes the DNA of the analog T.50 and pays tributes to Lauda with a Cosworth-engineered V12, paddle shifters, a solo central cockpit, a massive fixed rear wing, roof-mounted ram-induction scoop, and an aggressive aero package that generates up to 1,500 kg (3,307 lbs) of downforce.

Gordon Murray didn’t just design a hypercar; he engineered a masterpiece & this 1st release of the T.50s from 2024. It's brilliantly rendered in metal flake orange, a shade that HW seems to choose for 1st releases of British super/hyper cars and is a great example of a scale model with all the aerodynamic elements of the 1:1 car carried over in great detail to the 1:64 model. A low-angle, front three-quarter studio photograph of the same 1/64 scale Hot Wheels Gordon Murray Automotive T.50s diecast model. The car is positioned dynamically on a dark racetrack curve with a red-and-white curb edge. The framing emphasizes the low-slung, aerodynamic front splitter, tinted cockpit canopy with a roof-mounted engine air scoop, carbon-accented side skirts, and the sleek modern lines characteristic of Gordon Murray's signature lightweight design, set against an out-of-focus tropical background. taken in Gordon Murray Automotive by @superstarksa

Marking Formula One's return to Sepang during #liverydiecastweek, with a throwback to F1 drama with Bburago’s 1:64 scale Red Bull Racing RB9s recreating the legendary 2013 Malaysian Grand Prix Multi 21 controversy! 🏁⚡️

From the high-speed wheel-to-wheel scrap down the Sepang straight to that cold post-race cool-down room, Multi 21 remains an unforgettable F1 moment. 🤯

And just like 2013, Red Bull Ferrari have qualified 1-2 at Sepang this year, but given their history, Max and Lewis going wheel to wheel to the 1st corner promises much more excitement than Seb vs Massa in 2013.

Bringing classic rally royalty into #liverydiecastweek and throwing it back to the 42nd Rallye Monte-Carlo (1973) with Schuco’s 1:64 scale replica of the n° 255 BMW 2002 tii!
Driven by German crew Wolfgang Stiller and Axel Wagener, this classic 2002 tii tackled the grueling inaugural WRC season opener in motorsport’s most iconic orange livery.
It was a famously grueling, snow-and-ice-covered rally that saw only 44 of the 278 starters reach the finish line. And while the brutal snow and ice forced a DNF after a route stage was blocked, Schuco’s diecast execution is a total winner - from the quad front fog lamps and German plates down to the crisp sponsor decals and the classic bright orange Jägermeister scheme. A low-angle, eye-level front three-quarter photograph of a 1:64 scale Schuco diecast model of the #255 orange Jägermeister BMW 2002 tii rally car. Staged on a dark asphalt-like surface against a solid black background, the shot emphasizes the car's front bumper-mounted quad auxiliary rally lights, classic double-kidney grille, German license plate reading "BS-EN 556," windshield wipers, side racing number 255, and silver multi-spoke wheels taken in Monte-Carlo, Monaco by @superstarksa

Bringing true track heritage to #liverydiecastweek with 1:64 replica of the Subaru WRX STI NBR Challenge 2022 n° 114 by Kyosho who has nailed the execution—from the bold STI side graphics to the track wheels.

At the 2022 24 Hours of Nurburgring, n° 114 ran strong and, true to its pedigree that had yielded 6 class wins until then, climbed up to 2nd in its class. But at 3 am, tire issues led to a shunt and suspension failure ended Subaru's push for their 7th class win at the Green Hell.

Beyond its raw speed, the magic of Subaru’s NBR 24H team lies in the pit lane: eight master technicians are handpicked from Subaru dealerships across Japan every year to run pit stops at the Nordschleife. 🔧🇯🇵

Unmatched endurance history, fueled by everyday dealership heroes. Drop a 💙 if you respect the hustle behind Subaru's NBR legacy! A dramatic low-angle, front three-quarter photograph of Kyosho’s 1:64 scale diecast model of the #114 Subaru WRX STI NBR Challenge 2022 race car. The miniature car is staged at night on a dark asphalt track surface, framed against a crisp red and white kerb in the foreground. The metallic blue exterior features bold red, white, and black STI side liveries, Falken Tires, Motul, BBS, and H&R sponsor decals, a large rear wing, and dark multi-spoke wheels. taken in Nürburgring Nordschleife by @superstarksa

Iconic turquoise, deep black accents - Vitaphone Racing and the Maserati MC12 GT1 created a legend on the track, and Bburago brought that exact energy to 1:43 scale for today’s #liverydiecastweek.

Powered by a soaring Ferrari-derived V12, the massive MC12 dominated the FIA's GT Championship in the 2000s, taking 6 consecutive GT/GT1 Team titles from 2005 to 2010 and 5 GT1 Drivers' Championships during that same period.

The striking turquoise-and-black Vitaphone livery remains one of the most recognizable graphic schemes to ever grace a race track. 🤌 A high-angle studio photograph of a 1:43 scale diecast model of the #1 Vitaphone Racing Team Maserati MC12 GT1 race car by Bburago, staged against a bright yellow background.
