It is nice! If you don´t know the kit already from a former release, expect something like Fujimi´s EM-series.

Old tool - but a very nice one! Looking forward to it :)

...and now we watch the kit speculators/horders quickly try and sell their stash on ebay before those that don't know about the re-issue find out.

I had this kit before. Its decent. The Tamiya version is overall more accurate in the shapes, plus it has the American bumpers that I like better, but the Revell version makes up for it in the details that the Tamiya lacks.

The Revell's ride height is too high and the small wheels and tires are awful. Maybe the sidewalls of the tires are just too small, and some better tires would improve the look.

I might get one just to splice it together with the Tamiya kit.

If they're producing this one I wonder if they will do the Zenders?
I'd really like to see the BMW 850's!

Thats what i want, the zender 850i. I think thats what it was, it was a converitble. Damn that means mine isn't going to be worth a lot anymore. Nice to see a rerelease.

Was not a Zender. Look at the PICS for the Revell kits:
