    Disappointed in the 312T photos; front tire font is wrong, and look at the crooked striping on either side of the cowl shields; opaque brake ducts would have made a big improvement too..........

    Actually, the brake ducts were slightly translucent.

    Are you doing this for passion or it's your own business?
    In reality I don t know you, but I love your réalisation.
    I think in your actual place I will be very excited to finish :)

    Unfortunately this is typical of TM, it's a sort of "you get what you pay for" situation with them and all others cranking out numerous models in China that are relatively cheap for what they are. It's just a product for them to make and sell. I have two 1:12th models from TM, which both have issues, but not too glaring, and are overall surprisingly good. But....I very highly doubt that they will make anything else I'll want and that would be produced to a high enough level of accuracy and quality for me.

    Top Marques is starting to do Ferrari showcars, and we should probably see a few in 1/12th soon.

    Top Marques told me they will announce a Alfa Carabo Bertone in 1/18th next week. I hope they also do it in 1/12th wich would be amazing. One of my favorite wedge show cars.

    Does anyone know how to get ahold of BBR to find out what is going on with their Ferrari 375 MM s/n 0286AM 5° Carrera Panamericana 1954 1/12th model. This thing has been on pre order for years. About time to release it BBR !!! I bet it will sell out fast if they do not over price it. The website address is useless as they know nothing. I had an old email years ago when they sold kits but now they mostly only do built up 1/18th and 1/43rd so I am out of touch with the BBR people.
