I'm going to email Russ and put a deposit on the Porsche kit, I'm telling you this in case he sells my kit to someone else for more money. Then i'll have to take him to court

hehe

Got to get in before the speculators who'll want to flip them wink

Glad to hear it comes in a 'classic livery' and not the weird camo. Anyone care to suggest what it might be?

I am very excite! thumbup

Rhodium or GT Silver are the best colours (obviously), but I expect that Lava Orange or Ultraviolet will be the production colour.

Couldn't see them doing Martini. Alcohol and a 'kids toy' and all that. Gulf would be cool though!

Now we can all have a GT3RS
It looks HUGE - probably 300 euros or so.

Discussion thread for it

Also, the new bucket wheel excavator with over 3700 pieces could be interesting......
This could be a very expensive year, the Porsche and Bucket Wheel look very good. But, I also like the look of that Volvo wheeled excavator, any more details on that?

I might have to invest in these, seeing as the older kits don't seem to get any cheaper! (thinking Unimog, crawler, etc)

Livery suggests race car so guess it's a cup racer/gt3 rsr so might be in the white and orange factory colours. Price seems v high but still want it!

How do Tamiya get past this then with their RC cars?

I will be talking to Russy about a group buy for the H2 models. We normally start a thread around June time when details start to appear.

I have put my order in today for all 2H launches, Advent Calendars etc etc - I was quick so very confident I will get stock for launch.

I have gone fairly heavy on the Technic stuff, so I cannot see any reason why we cannot put something together later in the year. So give us some time and then myself and Pod will get a list going to gauge interest etc (no need to fill this thread up with it.)

Its a good range, lots of nice stuff coming out, need a bigger warehouse.

just a thought - what would be involved in producing a set of custom decals.....

I know a guy who does these sort of things, I'll ask.

At a guess, I imagine the easiest thing would be to get a copy of the sticker sheet, transfer it to a graphics program, re-design and then print.
