the only real news at the fiere Novegro ( Milan, Italy[ATTACH] )
Thank you very much for these pictures christian..do you have any aditional info on these models, like when they are suposed to be avaiable..because right now there is nothing about them on the BBr site.
So now we have two choice for the 365 GTC/4: https://diecastsociety.com/new-kk-scale-ferraris/ Image Unavailable, Please Login If this model is as good as the previous KK-scale Ferraris I will prefer it over the Tecnomodel version.
The KK-scale 365 GTC/4 looks pretty good, especially for the price…and it looks much better than the same car made by Tecnomodel. It’s a win with being a better model at a lower price. That said....their 275 NART Spyder is not good, it’s a lousy model. So no point in buying unless you are on a very tight collecting budget. BBR’s is far better, but of course carries a much higher price, and still has some mistakes.
carmodel has 30 November as delivery time for the 365 GTC 4 365 California / 400 SA / 275 GTB Spyder can be bought now
Give it approximately two years before any of us actually see this model being shipped out and available.
these 4 are BBR Models F 40 is an early prototype seen at the BBR stand at the hobby model expo in Novegro / near Milan
I have been watching KK since they started doing 1/12th scale models and have to agree they get the body shapes and sometimes the wheels better than Tecnomodel and Top Marques, although Tecnomodel builds are much better quality. KK kind of cuts costs and takes shortcuts. Whoever does KK's masters just does better work.

I hope CMC fixes at least some details on those C-Type's before they release them. The front/nose of the body looks wrong in shape, and grill has some problems too. I know that unfortunately they won't fix those areas. Oh well..... I was going to buy one of the models of the Le Mans winner, but maybe not after seeing these early photos. I do realize that these are pre-production samples, but I also know as mentioned, there are some problem areas that they won't fix. I'll wait to see final production photos before I make a final vote with or without my wallet.
news from CMR, Ferrari 512s..they look better than the tecnomodel crap! Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login
Well, it's barely better. Especially around the engine and rear suspension detail (or lack thereof) but at least it will be priced accordingly. I'm tempted to buy one but am holding out for the GMP version.
I would wait for the one from GMP. It might not be perfect, but it will be the best, and most detailed one offered. Spend the extra money; as the saying goes, 'buy the best, and you'll only cry once.'
I have it on order, it will be 3 times the price but it will be 6 times better..at least i hope so!! Marshall, do you have any idea on the release date? it's been postponed so many times and getting a bit nervous..i've heard 15 november but not very sure of it....
Pedro, I don't know if they are on schedule or not. I will be talking with them this week, and will see what the latest update is, or if there is any news.
Thanks Marshall, i passed on a great oportunity to get a R.A.R.E models 512m Sunoco because i really want the GMP, so hoping they will deliver.
I'd take a 'wait and see' about anything produced by GMP: the protoype photos of the Sunoco 512 were not encouraging.
I think it was a very early stage, pretty sure the end result will be very good, their previous efforts with Ferraris were all very good.
