    The for sale subforum is at the bottom of the main page and only viewable by members so you need to register.

    I've bought a few from members there including my 1/18 Fujimi/TSM F50 GT.

    That isn't the first time they have "found" more pieces of some sold out editions. They also have some other bad habits, which is why I dumped/sold off all of my 1:43 BBR's many years ago. I do occasionally buy one of their 1:18 pieces, but only if it is something I really want, and can live with the fact that they can't be trusted on their 'limited editions.' They do make some great models, but their business ethics are terrible.

    Some very interesting new models coming from CMF and Tercnomodel. I just wish they were more accurate, and also made to at least the same better overall level as Matrix. Not that Matrix is perfect, they are not, but they are substantially better than the other two. I seriously considered the 375 MM "Rossellini" car, but too much is wrong. It's a low cost model.....

    But Looksmart is supose to release it this year, i t will probably be a bit better even if it won't be perfect...but let's face it Marshall, after what you did in 1/12 scale, nothing will ever come close, so you have to be prepared to cut it some serious slack!! :)

    Thanks Pedro! Yes, I know... I do have to cut them some slack....but there's still a limit ;) I didn't know about the possible one from Looksmart, and if they actually produce it, I expect it will be pretty good...or at least good enough, and I would buy one. But....as Christian has pointed out, Looksmart makes lists of models they say they will make, but then they never make them!! So I won't hold my breath for anything from them.
