    if it was up to you: what model would you create next in the HotWheels series? (maybe Mattel pays attention to our wishes....) BTW I love Mattel's policy of offering these "Toys for Tifosi" at these affordable prices. keep the good work guys.

    I wish Mattel would release a 1:18 version of the 512BBi and the F 250 GT bodied by Piero Drogo s/n 2819 better known as the "Breadvan" that would be cool ! and some other one offs like the "Sharknose". btw is there a berlinetta boxer model already? if so post it!

    If I am not mistaken, the Lusso is not far off. I seem to remember it will be in production within the next few months.

    As far as them doing the models I want to see...
    well, name a Ferrari which has not been done in 1:18! :)

    No, not a 330 P4, this is a Dino 206 SP.

    About 1:18 models of the Boxer: get the Kyosho versions, they offer VERY good value for money and are very detailed. You cannot compare those to those carppy Hotwheels (sorry for that, but I am not a Hotwheels fan...).
    I don't have a picture on the Kyosho boxer, but if you search on ebay I'm sure you will find a couple! Kyosho has both the 365 and 512 BB's.

    Personally, I'd much rather see Kyosho remake all the Ferrari models that Mattel currently makes. Kyosho's quality is far superior over Mattel. I know that many people do not want to spend $50+ for a model, but I will in a heartbeat.

    It's not that I don't like Mattel, some of their Ferraris are actually pretty good and I own quite a few of them.

    You are right about that! Even better: let Autoart produce Ferrari models! That would be awesome!

    Some Mattels are not that bad, but they simply won't do it for me. But that is personal to everyone. I like it to pay double or triple the price for a model that is twenty times as nice. Just my thought...

    Kyosho makes beautiful 1:18 models of the 365 GT4 BB and the 512 BB.
