Looks like the 1/12 Ford GT40 by Trumpeter is going to happen also. http://www.modelcarsmag.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=12119&view=findpost&p=128025
I figured the GT40 would happen. I wonder if they converted the old GMP molds to plastic?? That was a pretty good model. I guess CMA can drop their GT40 model plans now. Tom Tanner/Scale Designs
I have to show a few photos of the GMP 1/6th 312PB motor. I may have to get one of these. It looks very nice. Tom Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I just finished a 1/24th Hiro 312 F1. I am working on a 1/24th Daytona Comp., Porsche 917K, Hiro 64 GTO and 1/43rd Provence Moulage Ferrari P3 Spa 1966. I plan on showing them all at the Ferrari Expo 2009, but just for display. Tom Tanner/SD
Tommy, were you a bit disappointed with Fujimi's choice for their 1/20th model? It seems like Ferrari's from the 70s have been pretty well covered.
Not really. I have enough old 1/24th F1 kits to build. I wont buy them, but if others build a F1 model because of it that would be great. The more good kits the better. Tom

Back to Italian car models. Master for the Ferrari 126C3 1983 Holland/Germany by Model Factory Hiro in 1/20th scale, coming soon. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
What I want to know is what happened to the 330LMB, 250 TDF, 312B, 206S and 312B2 that Hiro announced last year?? They have come out with atleast 10 new models since they announced those cars. I think the Lancia Beta could have waited!!! Hope they have them in time to sell at the Ferrari Expo next year. Tom Tanner/SD/Ferrari Expo model/art/photo contest 2009
Hiro will do the F2008 in 1/20 with a release in December 2008 The Hiro 126C3 in 1/20th is due out in November 2008.l Here are a couple of well built Hiro models that they posted on their website: Ferrari 1964 GTO Lemans NART #26 1/24th kit Ferrari F2007 2007 1/20th kit Alfa Romeo TZ2 1966 Targo Florio 1/24th kit TT/SD Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Here is the price sheet for the Hiro 126C3. Also a photo of the 1/20th Fujimi 312T2. I dont know why they did the 1976 version. Maybe more versions will follow. Tom Tanner/SD/Ferrari Expo 2009 Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
I spoke with Kyoko last year and she mentioned that 250TdF had some problems in the body design they wanted to correct. 330LMB was almost complete in January of 2007! Not sure what happened to these models. I want to see them too ASAP, especially TdF.
Are you sure that's a Fujimi kit? I saw it listed somewhere as a Hasegawa kit. It represent's Lauda's Monaco GP winner and will be available as both a base kit and as a "super" kit with photo-etched brass accessories.
Sorry, its a Hasegawa kit. It looks very detailed. Alex, I cant wait for the LMB and TDF also!! Could really use a full engine detail Dino 206S and 315/335S Tom
Here is a photo Hiro just posted on their website. It shows 1/24th masters. They have done the Abarth, Alfa TZ1, TZ2 250/275P and Cobra. The 250 TDF and 330 LMB look very nice along with the 2 new Abarth's. The Alfa GTAM looks almost like my old SD trans-kit.

Minidelta just posted these on their website. Its the new built 1/6th scale Alfa 2.9 1938 Lemans coupe. Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
By the end of this year there will also come a Jaguar D Type in 1:12. Minidelta is planning more 1:12 Ferrari's besides their P3. A P3 spider, 412P or P4 spider which one is not decided yet.....
