Why? I just hope it's the same quality as the normal enzo + all the modifications.

Good news, I sold the enzo kit I had but am thinking of getting two enzos and the FXX now. Though I would rather have the MC12. Both in street and race.

Re: NEWS: Tamiya 1/24 Ferrari FXX is on the list!

Translation by Nifty says the 934 is a finished model?!? Does that mean it will be part of their Masterwork collection or is it just amistake in the translation? Any here read Japanese?

Thanks,

Ron

Isn't that referring to the new finished yellow 1/12 Carrera GT?

The newly listed semi-assembled 1/12 Carrera GT is just the yellow version of the previously released (half-finished) kit. The 934 is a part of the masterwork collection series, and that means it's a finished model.

Would it be a stupid decision to order the E Jan FXX transkit now?

Excellent news. I'll be watching for the pre-order page and I hope it comes with a diecast undertray too, otherwise nobody will have anything to moan about.

Mike.

I already see it coming! This and the Enzo aren't likely to make it to my stash

A thread about new Tamiya release without the traditional diatribe about a diecast chassis??!!
It just wouldn't be the same

Seriously though, I am quite pleased to hear this news as I have been hoping to build this version of the Enzo since it was originaly announced and have been ogling the recent transkit yhreads/announcements.

Re: NEWS: Tamiya 1/24 Ferrari FXX is on the list!

It's also kind of an unusual move for Tamiya when you think about it, innit?

The only example I can recall of Tamiya evolving its tooling along with new 1:1 versions of the subject is the '95 Cobra version of their '94 Mustang (and by the way, Tamiya, thanks a helluva lot for that one! )

Never did any Ferrari F430 or 512TR. But here's their Enzo, the plastic Ferrari kit to end all of 'em, and now they're gonna do an FXX?

Not fair. I haven't even saved enough to replace the Enzo I slapped together for a review.

Never heard of the Pininfarina Mythos kit? The body sits on the Testarossa chassis, just like the real car does.
