Japanese models, industrial models, cars, trucks, construction equipment, but also the first white metal kits\u2014English, French, Italian, German\u2014were all offered. Long lists, photos: a perfect tool for developing the business. Then, very quickly, Danhausen created its own product lines. In touch with the market, the Lang brothers knew what needed to be reproduced to meet their customers' expectations. To achieve this, they called upon the best, those who had innovated and distinguished themselves from the competition through the quality of their products: Western Models in Great Britain, and of course, AMR in France. Growth was meteoric despite high selling prices. This was still the era of the Deutsche Mark. This commitment to quality remained throughout the adventure that led them to the famous Minichamps. The Minichamps brand was initially one of Danhausen's product lines: high-quality white metal kits. Later, under this name, the famous products made in China would be manufactured, achieving worldwide success and renown. A number of enthusiasts may not be aware of the origins of these Minichamps models. The Lang brothers understood this and made the right choices before others. Few enthusiasts had the skill, time, and space to assemble these kits. Moreover, the increasingly complex assembly process was beginning to discourage enthusiasts, and some were accumulating boxes of unassembled kits. I remember my father being concerned about this and discussing it with the BAM management in France. The Lang brothers, however, took action. Very quickly, alongside the models sold as kits, they began producing fully assembled series, similar to what Western Models was already doing."}
