Bristol UK – 19th September 2025: Amalgam Collection, the world’s leading creator of large scale hand-built model cars, has unveiled three new McLaren Racing masterpieces: the 1:8 scale McLaren MCL39, a full-size replica of the MCL39 steering wheel and a 1:18 scale model, offering collectors the complete MCL39 line-up. These editions celebrate McLaren’s standout performance at the 2025 Louis Vuitton Australian Grand Prix, where Lando Norris delivered a race win and Oscar Piastri secured ninth place.
The £8,995 1:8 scale MCL39 captures McLaren’s 2025 challenger in remarkable detail. Measuring more than 70cm long and constructed from thousands of precision-engineered components, each model is hand-built over 250 hours following more than 2,500 hours of development using original CAD and paint specifications supplied and approved by McLaren Racing. Editions for both Norris and Piastri are strictly limited to just 99 pieces per driver.
Alongside it, Amalgam presents the £6,995 full-size replica MCL39 steering wheel – a completely accurate recreation of the real race-used component – also limited to just 99 pieces per driver. Featuring working buttons, switches, rotaries and paddles, each wheel is engineered and hand-finished to replicate the exact weight, feel and functionality of the drivers’ own equipment.
Completing the collection is the newly available £1,050 1:18 scale MCL39, measuring over 31cm (12in) long. Developed over 800 hours and featuring precisely engineered castings, photo-etched details and CNC-machined metal components, the model provides a beautifully crafted foundational piece to the MCL39 series while retaining Amalgam’s hallmark accuracy and craftsmanship.
Sandy Copeman, Founder of Amalgam Collection, said: “McLaren’s performance in Melbourne set the tone for their 2025 campaign, and we’re proud to capture that moment across a full model collection. Whether at 1:8, 1:18 or full-size steering wheel scale, each piece reflects the technical brilliance and excitement of modern Formula 1.
“In recent years, we’ve seen a surge in collectors viewing cars as art investments, and most of our models are themselves created as limited-edition artworks, with only a very small number available. 2025 is shaping up to be an extraordinary year for McLaren, and owning one of these ultra-limited Amalgam pieces is like owning a piece of automotive art that commemorates a defining season.”
