Sepculating on whether Fujimi or Revell AG will do this...

New Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. The replacement for the 599.

My money is on both of them doing it...... and going by recent standards it wont be the Fujimi version that ends up in my stash.

That car is pure secks

There are a good group of Tifosi w/in Revell AG. I'm fairly confident it's not a matter of "if" but "when".

Fujimi? No thanks. Would be more fun if Tamiya did the kit, along the lines of how they did the LFA.

It has to be tamiya's turn... 6 years since their last horse, but they're likely to make the enzo replacement. The F12 is pure pornography that I dare not to look, hope Revell do it justice, Fujimi... well...

Yes. But they have to do it with the Enzo's quality, even if "curbside" and simplified (I meant curbside like the DBS "almost full" detail IS), this to say that after I seen your damn build I bought the DBS and i'm a bit disappointed with the quality and the engineering also, molds are not perfect like tamy stuff used to be.

Yes the F12 is pure secks!!!! The "mouth" is a bit in the cartoon style, like disney cars , but I like this car more than any last F after the F40....

Looks like the design is not by P. ...

Re: Sepculating on whether Fujimi or Revell AG will do this...

I'm not entirely convinced by the surface detail.
I get the impression that the side details were designed with those 3/4 shots in mind and that once you get past the "ideal imagined" angle, the lines will start to get messy.

The rear is also too fussy for my liking.

What I find interesting here is that this is the first time I can think of where the V8 car informs the design of the V12 car. Previously, the V12 always came first, then the V8 design.

365BB - 308
Testarossa - 348
550 - 360
599 - 430

although I suppose you could argue that the F12 is a continuation of the 599 style.

Re: Sepculating on whether Fujimi or Revell AG will do this...

We will have several choices soon enough, including a few 1/24th diecasts. The diecasts might end up being the best although Revell has been on its game. Tamiya...sure they will, with a paperweight chassis and no engine detail. Not bad but the BIG toothy front end is over done
