hand-cast resin process is what sets this apart — it crisply nails the BT55's low-line bodywork and those BMW Turbo vents plastic die-casts just can't replicate.
We usually have stock of the Olivetti livery, but are about 200 units or so per batch, so lead times stretch to 4-6 weeks if we're between casts; that handwork doesn't scale quickly.
Most buyers we see are F1 historians or collectors chasing the 1986 grid completion, not casual gift-givers, and they pretty much always ask about the decal accuracy against race-week photos before they order.
Bulk pricing kicks in at 10 units — roughly 15% off single-piece rates — and COA with batch-specific photos are included with every foam-protected box, though keep in mind this isn't a toy for rough handling below age 14.
The 25cm length fits standerd display cases, anyway, but one thing nobody thinks to check: teh rear wing endplates are fragile resin castings, not metal, so shiping insurance is smart on multiples.
Lead times stretch if you want matched batch numbers for shelf continuity, so we always recommend confirming production slot availability before committing to bulk orders.
We use hand-cast resin, which means each piece is poured and cured in a silicone mold individually. This gives the model its sharp details and lightweight feel, but it also means slight variations from one unit to another.
Yes, the paint scheme is matched to reference photos of the real BT55 from the 1986 season. We work with original color codes to recreate that specific dark blue and white Olivetti look, so it should be spot-on for collectors.
We don't have a strict MOQ, but since each model is hand-cast and limited-run, we typically ask for a minimum of 1 unit for individual collectors. If you're looking to buy in bulk, we can discuss larger quantities on a case-by-case basis.
It does not include a separate certificate, but the display carton and foam packaging are branded with the model's details. If you need a specific COA for insurance or collection purposes, let us know and we can arrange one.
The model is placed in a custom-cut foam insert inside the display carton, which holds it snugly. We also pack that carton in a sturdy outer box with extra padding, so it should arrive safe even for international orders.
