Lol, I wouldn't say it was rare. It was only released a few months ago (although it is a tooling of the old F40 kit) so you couldn't really call it rare

Looking forward to progress though - good start already

Re: Ferrari F40 Competizione

Yeah, that looks pretty familiar. It is the old F40 kit, with a few new parts.

I understand it has the same fit issue between the body shell and engine lid. Feel free to check out my solution on my F40 thread.
