TH 1:64 Porsche 911 GT3 R Le Mans 2025 #92 Review

Review by Scale Metals

Quick take: Trends Hobby’s 1:64 Porsche 911 GT3 R #92 combines a convincing Manthey 1ST PHORM livery with a sturdy die-cast body, a genuinely opening front cover, sharp exterior graphics and surprisingly good play value. It is a compact model with enough race-car hardware to reward close inspection without becoming fragile.

The Le Mans Context

This model represents the #92 Manthey 1ST PHORM Porsche 911 GT3 R from the 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans. In the LMGT3 class, the car completed 341 laps and finished first in class 1. The driving line-up was Richard Lietz, Ryan Hardwick and Riccardo Pera 2.

That result gave Manthey a second consecutive LMGT3 victory at Le Mans 3. The same #92 programme also finished the season as the LMGT3 teams’ champion in the FIA World Endurance Championship 4. Those are useful pieces of context for the model, but the appeal here is not only the winner’s plate. The livery itself is what makes this particular 911 immediately recognizable.

TH uses the 992-generation Porsche 911 GT3 R as the basis for a compact 1:64 alloy model. The glacier-blue body is crossed by a crack-like graphic pattern, while the roof, hood and rear wing use black contrast panels. Pink mirrors add a small but effective flash of color. The result is busy in the way a real endurance-racing car is busy, yet the main blue, black and white blocks remain easy to read.

Packaging and First Impression

TH Porsche 911 GT3 R #92 inside its clear plastic display case and printed box — image 4 of 14 — Figure 4. The model sits in a clear plastic case in front of the blue-and-black box, with the white #92 visible on the door.

The packaging is straightforward: a printed paper box in the same blue-and-black palette as the car, with a race-car illustration on the front. There is no separate acrylic display case and the model is not screw-fixed to a base. Instead, an upper-and-lower blister structure holds it in place. It is a practical presentation rather than a presentation piece, but the car arrives well supported and the box communicates the subject clearly.

The model itself makes a stronger first impression than the packaging. The stance is low and believable, the finish is clean, and the livery gives the small car a lot to look at. The source review also notes Porsche and 24 Hours of Le Mans licensing, which fits the way the subject is presented on the box.

Body Shape, Paint and Livery

Figure 5. Low side view showing the wide racing body, black wheels, purple mirror and prominent rear wing.

Shape accuracy is one of the model’s strengths. The body sits with the purposeful width and squat proportions expected from a GT3 race car, and the production finish looks consistent across the large blue panels. The paint has a clean metallic feel without obvious blemishes in the reviewed sample.

Much of the complex racing livery is applied as decals. On a model this small, the important point is how well those graphics follow the body rather than whether every tiny sponsor name can be read. Here the cuts around the panels are tidy, the major color blocks stay aligned, and the pink mirrors provide a useful visual anchor against the blue-and-black base.

The door handle is represented as raised relief, the side mirror is a separate part, and the side LED matrix is picked out rather than left as a blank surface. Small rivet details around the window frame add another layer when the model is viewed close up. These touches keep the car from looking like a simple painted shell.

Front End, Wheels and Brakes

The front end has more going on than the scale suggests. The headlights are separate parts with visible internal lamp structure, and the front grille is represented by a black metal mesh rather than a flat painted rectangle. The front canards or dive planes on both sides are separate metal pieces, as is the front splitter.

The openings behind the front wheels are genuinely open, while the vents behind the doors use relief and black paint to create depth. The livery is cut around these areas instead of simply running over them. Carbon-fiber texture is also worked into the front lip, giving the nose a more technical finish.

The glossy black multi-spoke wheels carry central locking details, and the tires have printed branding. Brake discs and calipers are visibly represented, and the wheels turn smoothly. That last point matters for a model that is designed to be handled: it makes the car feel like a small, robust object rather than a display-only miniature.

Rear Lights, Diffuser and Wing

The rear lamps are separate transparent parts and follow the full-width light-bar layout of the race car. Other rear markings are tampo printed, while the diffuser is a separate piece. The rear bumper uses a carbon-fiber effect that appears to be a decal, but the texture reads convincingly at normal viewing distance.

The twin central exhaust outlets are separate parts with their own color separation, and the tips are finished more carefully than the scale might lead you to expect. The large rear wing is another highlight: its surface carries Porsche branding, the carbon-fiber treatment is visible, and the supports are open etched parts. The wing on the reviewed sample also sits straight, which is not something to take for granted on a small racing model.

Opening Front Cover

The front cover opens, and the feature adds real value to the model. The opening itself is simple, but the vents are actually open and the internal grille structure is present instead of being suggested only with paint. At 1:64, that is enough to change the way the car can be displayed and photographed.

Interior and Chassis

The model does not use a large number of separate parts. The interior is correspondingly restrained: a mainly dark cockpit, a few painted contrasts and a black roll cage. That is consistent with where TH has spent the budget. Most of the visual effort is on the exterior, the race livery and the front-opening gimmick rather than on a fully exposed cockpit.

The small roof hatch above the driver is neatly formed, and rivet details are visible around it. The wiper is molded into the windshield and painted, while the rear wing carries a carbon-fiber effect and Porsche logo. The open etched supports are particularly effective because they keep the wing visually light even though it dominates the silhouette.

Underbody and Final Thoughts

Direct underside view of the TH Porsche 911 GT3 R #92 showing the metal base, wheels, screws and molded channels — image 14 of 14 — Figure 14. The heavy metal base carries simple molded underbody channels, visible screws and smooth-rolling wheels.

The model uses a metal base, so it has a satisfying amount of weight in the hand. The underside is necessarily simpler than the top of the car: it is mostly a flat racing floor with a few molded airflow channels and structural lines. The car is fitted with slick-style racing tires, which suits the track-focused subject.

That balance is what makes this TH Porsche 911 GT3 R #92 work. The structure is not overloaded with fragile opening panels, yet the car still has an opening front cover, separate aerodynamic pieces, clear lamps, printed tire branding, a straight rear wing and a livery that holds together under close inspection. It feels sturdy enough to handle and detailed enough to keep on display.

For collectors who like Porsche racing subjects, Le Mans winners or compact models with a little play value, this is one of the more convincing 1:64 releases in the current TH line. The champion status gives it an obvious story, but the reason to keep looking at it is the combination of the blue-and-black Manthey livery, the wide 992 GT3 R shape and the amount of exterior detail packed into a small die-cast body.
