    there are pictures of the 1/20 fujimi f248 on the f1 modelling website.....test shots.
    The kit is a full detail with engine + brakes (engieered exactly the same as the 641/2)....good stuff.

    Model Factory Hiro Porsche RSR 1974 and Abarth OT1300 kits in 1/24th scale. Also the master for the Cobra 427 coupe 65 in 1/24th scale.(I noticed a mistake on the RSR decal. The race was 1974, not 1973 as the Lemans decal shows.)

    Should have atleast one of these in stock at the Ferrari Expo 2009

    Model Factory Hiro "Light" 1/24th scale Porsche 908/2 Lemans 1970 Martini kit.
    I see a few problems with the body. Judging by the 1/24th Martini RSR I would not doubt this one has problems to. I will try to have one at the Ferrari Expo in Chicago on April 25th 2009 to look at.

    Was about to buy a RS Spyder on Ebay a few days ago, then decided against it. Are they curbside, or full detail?

    That Bentley is INSANE! That much detail into a 1/43 car is crazy! Expensive?

    Built by Stephane Dufrene of Built Up Models the Bentley retails for about $1300 I believe. You can find more pictures including work-in-progress stuff on his site: http://www.builtupmodels.com.

    Edit: he offers it in kit form too!

    I remember that site before. He really is good if he can make the ABC 1/12th Aston Martin DBR9 look great!! Amazing stuff. The other guy I have
    seen as good super detailing big kits is Rob from Automotive Forums and his 1/12th 935 Martini. Its nice to see the art of fine car modeling is not going away. All his 1/43rd models are superb.

    It looks like the same basic 1/24th F430 GT kit.

    Here is a built up photo of the rather hard to find Fujimi 1/24th resin Pantera kit(built). Fujimi did several 1/24th and 1/20th resin kits and ALSO planned 4 resin built up models. I have only seen the F50GT and Dino 206 GT Frankfurt showcar 1967 as hand builts so far. Very high quality models. The 308GT4 was also on the list as a hand built. I would not be suprised if Fujimi doesn't
    do any more resin hand built models or kits as they didnt sell very well.

    Fisher has really had to get obscure to keep LMM and Profil 24 from copying him.

    I've known about the White Elephant for a while...good to see another fine kit from him.

    Your right!! I hope Hiro doesn't copy him either.
    He has been working on this one for atleast 10 years along with the original version of the car from 1965.
