looks good, but judging by the parts layout, I would expect a Revell USA issue, the sprue appears to be sized for the smaller Revell USA Box. i'll wait for that issue, unless I can get the Revell AG kit cheap

yes fujimi had released this car before,but i think this round revell won.fujimi provided wrong wheels,but revell gave a nice engine.

I believe that that site is in French, try freetranslation.com for a translation. The Revell kit looks as good as I'm starting to expect from them after their recent releases and the detail looks very good

You're welcome man: come back to http://s27.photobucket.com/albums/c159/gionc/

and you'll find several folders: one is the 288 gto: unfortunately the car was closed and I come to teh Galleria after a day at the fiorano track shooting the Lancia Montecarlo Gr.5: feel free to check the Fiorano and oter folders: some is just models folders.

The delay in the TT thread is only my responsability: guys is really forrward compare me! I hope we'll have a good update before fall ;)

One other advantage in an American Revell rebox is that it's more likely to be "squirted" (don'cha just love babelfish? :icon16: ) in white plastic, instead of gray for the hood and rear bumper, and red for the body...

Looks like a great kit; I'll wait to see if Revell USA repackages it and the 599 GTB. Getting close to the day that spending a premium for a Fujimi kit won't be necessary :smile:

To me it looks plain better than Fujimi. Not just detail level, but the way it's engineered - Headlights for example and definitely the underside, which doesn't require intricate masking that's needed to build any Fujimi Maranello.
