Both the Shell V-Power Racing Team and Red Bull Ampol Racing models join the Brodie Kostecki and Broc Feeney race winning models which were announced earlier this year as part of our 1st range of Supercars announcements.
All models are scheduled to be produced as limited editions in high detail 1:18 scale opening-part die-cast and 1:43 scale sealed-body formats. For those wondering about other teams and drivers from the 2026 season, more announcements are on the way. Stay tuned as the year unfolds.

Collectors will note an update to the regular retail price for 1:43 scale Supercars moving forward which will apply to all 2026 models. This adjustment has not been made lightly. However, the previous $99 retail price point is no longer sustainable for the level of detail, licensing requirements, tooling, packaging and production quality expected in today’s premium collectable market. Globally, premium 1:43 scale collectable models are now regularly retailing well above these levels, particularly within motorsport categories. This updated price point better reflects the international standard for this scale and the quality of our 1:43 scale Supercars. This price update only applies to our 2026 Supercar range in this scale. There's no plans currently to modify pricing for Supercars announced prior to 2026 - and other previously announced 1:43 scale models (VK / Bluebird Group Cs).
Thanks for your continued support of Authentic Collectables.
