    1: URL would be great: http://www.mintmodels.com/
    2: Where do they mention this on the website? Because the price is still around $700

    Hello everyone-just ordered my first 1/12 model the yellow f50-cant wait!! Please advise where would be a good place(online stores,no EBAY -that are honest/trustworthy) to purchase 1/12 kyosho f40 (reg or "lightweight" version-what's the price difference???) Also,will kyosho be selling 1/12 scale enzo in red or black or should I try to find Tamiya enzo in one of those exterior colors -please help,thankyou in advance.

    In my opinion the Tamya Enzo is better than the Kyosho. You can still find them. I don't know why you insist of staying away from e-bay. There are plenty, serious and reliable sellers there that can offer good deals for items you can't find elsewhere.
    As for the F40, good luck. They are sold out as far as I know.

    its easier to deal with a store imo. I ordered a new tamiya Enzo from an ebay supplier which was faulty, ended up 3 enzo's later and it was still not right. Things may have changed since then though. It was a pain.

    $249 is a pretty good price. But I'm holding out for the 1:12 288. Besides, I'm trying to stick to red models only at this point. As for the ebay arguement... We've not had a model shop here in KC for a while now and even when we did, their selection was slim (for F-Cars). I've been buying, almost exclusively, off ebay for a couple of years now with only one issue... I think as long as you research the seller you'll be fine. New models are always pretty easy to find a reputable seller - it's the rare and out of production ones that are a greater risk. I've got a couple of sellers that I try and use when buying new/recent releases...
