Even though we haven’t received our allotment yet, that doesn’t mean we cannot share images of Minichamps latest diecast classic motorcycle, their 1958 Triumph TR6 Thunderbird Motorcycle (#MIN122133550). Finished in silver and red, and bearing all the hallmark detail we’ve come to expect from their 1:12 scale bike series, their newest introduction is expected shortly, perhaps as early as mid-January. Close-up photographs were also provided for their Hoda Bol D’Or, which is already in stock and doing well at retail (#MIN122161900).

While we’re on the subject of two-wheeled riding, it appears as if Minichamps has just received their shipment of Marco Simoncelli 2011 Honda RC212V Team San Carlo Honda Gresini MotoGP Test Bikes, which means we should be receiving our share of the winning entry very soon. No doubt, the 2011 racing bike isn’t far behind…

It seems as though Minichamps is getting in gear to release even more new bikes for the coming year. According to their web site, collectors can expect to kick the tires on a 1:12 scale 1978 Honda CB 900 F ‘Bol D’or’ that is finished in blue. Also due out in the New Year is a 1958 Triumph TR6 Tiger awash in a silver and red scheme.

We’re keeping our fingers crossed that other previously hyped bikes aren’t too far behind, most notably their 1955 Vincent Black Lightning and 1948 Vincent HRD Black Lightning with a prostrate Rollie Free figure gripping the handlebars, first announced way back in February 2010.
