Yamaha YZR-M1 Twin Bike Set - Barcelona 2009 - Rossi/Lorenzo 1:12

This could well be the most ambitious presentation that Minichamps has ever offered. It commemorates the famous Rossi and Lorenzo battle over the last laps of the 2009 Moto GP race at Barcelona. The presentation features two Yamaha YZR-M1s and a figure of both Valentino Rossi and Jorge Lorenzo. Although £240 may seem expensive, take a moment to consider that the set is made up of a £75 Rossi bike, a £70 Lorenzo bike, and two £60 figures. That comes to £265. Also take a moment to consider the limited edition number. It is only 2,009 pieces. If a bike that Rossi had never ridden can sell out on release at a limited edition of 3,999 (we are, of course, talking about the 2007 Valencia paddock bike), then imagine what a set commemorating one of the finest moments of his career, limited to half that number, will do. Valentino Rossi fans, do not delay.
