This Minichamps 1/8 scale model is of the AGV helmet worn by Valentino Rossi during 2003.
Made from diecast metal with plastic and other material parts it measures approximately 3cm (1.25 inches) in height and features an opening tinted visor.
Presented on a black plastic plinth under a clear acrylic top and within a Valentino Rossi Collection slip box, the model can easily be removed from its plinth with the aid of a cross head screwdriver.
OUR OPINION:Despite being small, these Minichamps Rossi helmets are very well detailed coping admirably with some of his more colourful helmet designs.They are pretty much a shell though, if you want interior lining and straps you will need to look at the 1/2 scale helmets, but the opening visors are a nice touch.However, with so many other Rossi models out there, the helmets usually only appeal to the die-hard Rossi fans.
