About the Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 #9 B. Schneider / J. Bleekemolen Black Falcon 24 Hours of Nurburgring Winner 2013 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 reproduces the #9 Black Falcon entry that won the 2013 Nurburgring 24 Hours outright, driven by Bernd Schneider and Jeroen Bleekemolen. The sealed, one-piece racing body carries the full livery over the SLS GT3's wide aero package. Zinc-alloy weight anchors a documented endurance-racing winner.

The Nurburgring 24 Hours is one of endurance racing's most demanding tests, run largely at night and in changeable weather across the Nordschleife's twenty-plus kilometers of unforgiving corners. Minichamps casts the #9 Black Falcon SLS AMG GT3 that won the race outright in 2013, complete with the sponsor livery Bernd Schneider and Jeroen Bleekemolen carried to victory.

Minichamps' Mercedes SLS AMG GT3 and Its Gullwing Legacy

Retaining the SLS AMG's Signature Doors

Unlike many GT3 cars that abandon their road-going donor's more distinctive features for simplicity, the SLS AMG GT3 kept the standard car's gullwing doors as a functional part of the race car, a detail that set it apart from rival GT3 machinery built around more conventional door designs. That choice reflects how closely HWA, Mercedes' motorsport partner, kept the GT3 tied to the road car's core identity rather than building a fully bespoke silhouette. This diecast reproduces that shape as a fixed, one-piece shell rather than an opening model, so the doors are represented in their closed position across the whole casting.

The Aero Package That Won at the Nordschleife

Endurance racing at the Nurburgring rewards a car that balances outright downforce against tire wear and fuel consumption over twenty-four hours, and the SLS AMG GT3's wide front splitter, flared arches, and adjustable rear wing were tuned for exactly that balance rather than outright single-lap speed. Minichamps' casting carries that aero package faithfully, and the proportions read as a car built for sustained pace over a full day and night rather than a short sprint race.

The #9 Black Falcon Livery and Sealed Construction

Reproducing a Documented Nurburgring Winner

Minichamps casts the specific #9 livery that Black Falcon ran to victory in 2013, rather than a generic SLS GT3 finish, tying this model directly to a documented result on one of motorsport's most demanding circuits. Bernd Schneider, one of German touring car racing's most decorated drivers, and Jeroen Bleekemolen shared the winning car, and the full sponsor graphics package Minichamps reproduces matches the livery that crossed the line first that year. For a collector who values documented race history over an anonymous livery, that specificity matters considerably.

A Sealed Body Built for Livery Precision

This SLS AMG GT3 is cast as a single sealed shell, with no doors, hood, or hatch that opens, a construction choice that lets Minichamps hold tighter, more consistent shut lines across a body carrying dense sponsor graphics. Zinc-alloy construction gives the model real heft despite the fixed body, and the tampo printing follows the car's wide arches and splitter without visible distortion at the panel breaks, a detail that matters more on a livery this graphically busy than on a simpler paint scheme.

An Endurance Winner Among GT3 Subjects

Outright wins at the Nurburgring 24 Hours carry particular weight in GT3 collecting circles, since the race's length and unpredictability make a genuine victory harder to earn than in most shorter GT3 rounds. This SLS AMG GT3 represents one such win, giving it a stronger collecting case than a car that simply competed without a documented result attached. Displayed alongside other Nurburgring winners from rival manufacturers, it traces how closely matched GT3 competition became once the category standardized performance across brands. At 1:18, the wide-bodied GT3 shape measures close to 26 centimeters, noticeably larger in footprint than the road-going SLS it derives from, a detail worth planning for when placing it alongside standard SLS castings. The sealed gullwing shape also invites a useful comparison with Minichamps' opening-door SLS road car castings, showing how closely the GT3 program kept the racing silhouette tied to the production car's most recognizable feature even while sacrificing functional access to it.

Collecting a Nurburgring 24 Hours Winner

This SLS AMG GT3 suits a collector focused on endurance racing history rather than sprint-format GT3 competition, valued specifically for its documented Nurburgring 24 Hours win under the Black Falcon banner. The sealed body and detailed livery place it in a solid mid-to-upper GT3 diecast tier, priced in line with other documented-winner castings rather than generic race liveries. Handling the sealed body poses little risk over years of display, since there are no hinges to loosen or panels to misalign, just a single continuous shell that holds its shut lines and finish exactly as cast. A documented endurance win like this one gives a GT3 model a story that outlasts the usual appeal of livery alone.
